Re: How Check validate before save

Hi Mamdoohi,

As others have said when you call your models save() method it will
check validation by default. But if for whatever reasons you want to
do manual validation, here's a few methods that I found extremely
helpful:

$this->YourModel->set($this->request->data);
You can use your models set method(don't confuse this set() method
with the controllers set() method, they are two different methods) to
pass in data. This data won't actually be saved yet, and then you can
manually see if it validates with the following method:

$this->YourModel->validates();
After sending it to your model you can then check if the data you sent
validates using the models validates method. It'll return true or
false if it validated.

There's also a whole bunch of other model methods for validation and
for associated models in the api that you may find helpful:
