Contact.cfc An object that represents a contact and self-validates using ColdBox Validation Module , and is an awesome ActiveEntity object. Let's use CommandBox to build it:
Copy coldbox create orm-entity entityName=contact primaryKey=contactID properties=firstName,lastName,email --activeEntity --open Then spice it up with the validation constraints
Copy /**
* A cool Contact entity
*/
component persistent = "true" table = "contacts" extends = "cborm.models.ActiveEntity" {
// Primary Key
property name = "contactID" fieldtype = "id" column = "contactID" generator = "native" setter = "false" ;
// Properties
property name = "firstName" ormtype = "string" ;
property name = "lastName" ormtype = "string" ;
property name = "email" ormtype = "string" ;
// validation
this .constraints = {
firstName = {required = true } ,
lastName = {required = true } ,
email = {required = true , type = "email" }
};
}
