Documentation

Install the plugin: 
ruby script/plugin install http://accounts4free.rubyforge.org/svn/plugins/validates_as_eu_vat_number

Install the plugin either via script/plugin 

script/plugin install http://accounts4free.rubyforge.org/svn/plugins/validates_as_eu_vat_number



or via piston 

cd vendor/plugins
script/plugin install http://accounts4free.rubyforge.org/svn/plugins/validates_as_eu_vat_number



Use the plugin in an ActiveRecord model as you would any other. 

class Vat < ActiveRecord::Base
  validates_as_eu_vat_number :number, :with => :country_code
end



The :with option specifies the attribute that contains the EU country the vat number belongs to. If you drop the :with option the routine expects the country code to be the first two characters of the vat number.
