ActiveModel email validation. Checks MX records, sub address, regex, whitelisted and blacklisted check
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'rails_email_checker'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install rails_email_checker
To validate that the domain has a good format (regex):
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_email :email, formatted: true
end
To validate that the domain is not blacklisted:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_email :email, blacklisted: true
end
To validate that the domain has a MX record:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_email :email, recorded: true
end
To validate that email is not sub addressed:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_email :email, no_sub_addressed: true
end
OR
Use like that
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
validates :email, email: { no_sub_addressed: true, recorded: true, blacklisted: true }
end
address = RailsEmailChecker.address('test@gmail.com') # or RailsEmailChecker::Address.new('test@gmail.com')
address.formatted? # => true
address.sub_addressed? # => false
address.recorded? # => true
address.whitelisted? # => false
address.blacklisted? # => false
