TL;DR

Validateur is a functional validations library inspired by Ruby’s ActiveModel. Validateur 1.6 contains a usability improvement and drops Clojure 1.3 support.

Changes between Validateur 1.5.0 and 1.6.0

Corrected logic in blank/nil validations

Corrected the logic in the allowed-to-be-blank functions to properly allow nil values when allow-nil is true, but allow-blank is false. Previously, both allow-blank and allow-nil had to be set to true to allow nil values due to clojure’s blank? function returning true for nil.
