Simple question about creating a record

[davidtlee]

Assuming I follow the README, am I supposed to be able open the rails console (rails c) and execute

User.first.update_attribute :phone_number, '<some phone string>'

and phony_rails will automatically normalize the string and save it into the table?

I seem to be missing something because no normalization is happening. Moreover, if I give it a clearly wrong phone number, e.g. User.first.update_attribute :phone_number, '1111', the commit is still successful.

In app/models/user.rb, I have:

  phony_normalize :phone_number, :default_country_code => 'US'
  validates :phone_number, phony_plausible: true

Thanks!

u = User.first
u.phone_number = '1111'
u.save # gets normalized

Ahhh, thanks @joost!
