Usage

Instead of this:

require 'active_model'
require 'active_support'
class UserEntry
  include Virtus.model

  extend ActiveModel::Naming
  include ActiveModel::Conversion

  attribute :first_name, String
  attribute :last_name, String
  attribute :display_name, String
  attribute :is_active, Integer
  attribute :hidden, Integer, :write => :private
end

FormObject:

Same syntax as Rails validations

# app/form_object/user_entry.rb
require 'active_model'
require 'active_support'
require 'virtus/extras'

class UserEntry
  include Virtus.model

  extend ActiveModel::Naming
  include ActiveModel::Conversion
  extend Virtus::Extras::FormObject

  form_attributes :first_name,
                  :last_name,
                  :display_name,
                  :model => String

  form_attributes :is_active,
                  :model => Integer

  form_attributes :hidden,
                  :model => Integer,
                  :writer => :private
end
