Validation of local models

[cjblomqvist]

Even further, to enable using the same schema (or a part of another DB-schema), this needs to be easily available somehow on the original schema so it can easily be copied (referenced) to the local model's schema.

Local validation is now dealt with in derby-validator ( https://github.com/BBWeb/derby-validator ). That lib can easily be modified to accept (or even sniff up) rules from a model (i.e. declaratively defined schemas to a specific collection). Server-side (i.e. real validation) and model layer validation still remains though.

And with local validation in my previous comment I mean when doing a copy into the view model/scoped component model and before applying that data to the model. There's still no connection to declaratively define a schema (it doesn't currently work) and thus derby-validator does not yet automatically sniff up the schema to validate against. However, that might be enough to cover all validation except for the "proper" server-side validation inside of share (which should only validate that the user is not side-stepping the code).
