=head1 NAME

Validation::Class::Directive::Options - Options Directive for Validation Class Field Definitions

=head1 VERSION

version 7.900055

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Validation::Class::Simple;

    my $rules = Validation::Class::Simple->new(
        fields => {
            user_role => {
                options => 'Client'
            }
        }
    );

    # set parameters to be validated
    $rules->params->add($parameters);

    # validate
    unless ($rules->validate) {
        # handle the failures
    }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Validation::Class::Directive::Options is a core validation class field directive
that holds an enumerated list of values to be validated against the associated
parameters.

=over 8

=item * alternative argument: an-array-of-user-defined-options

This directive can be passed a single value or an array of values:

    fields => {
        user_role => {
            options => ['Client', 'Employee', 'Administrator']
        }
    }

    # the following examples are useful for plugins (and other code)
    # that may want to otherwise identify option values

    fields => {
        user_role => {
            options => [
                '1|Client',
                '2|Employee',
                '3|Administrator'
            ]
        }
    }

    # please note:
    # declaring options as "keyed-options" will cause the validation of
    # the option's key and NOT the option's value

    fields => {
        user_role => {
            options => [
                [ 1 => 'Client' ],
                [ 2 => 'Employee' ],
                [ 3 => 'Administrator' ]
            ]
        }
    }
