before :save and before :create hooks are not working

[datamapper]

before :save and before :create hooks are not working

[solnic]

Can you show an example where it doesn't work?

In this model, https://github.com/jaischeema/doorkeeper/blob/datamapper/app/models/application.rb, in place of before:valid?, I was using before :create.

I also removed the generate methods from within the block and tried to use a simple put "in the hook, but it doesn't do anything.

before :create/:save hook won't be called if a resource is not valid, this is why in this case you need to do before :valid? and it's ok

oh, I didnt knew that was the expected behaviour and was going by ActiveRecord sort of workflow. Thank you for your time.
