+validation
+==============
+
+validation is a form validation for a data validation and error collecting using Go.
+
+## Installation and tests
+
+Install:
+
+	go get github.com/astaxie/beego/validation
+
+Test:
+
+	go test github.com/astaxie/beego/validation
+
+## Example
+
+Direct Use:
+
+	import (
+		"github.com/astaxie/beego/validation"
+		"log"
+	)
+
+	type User struct {
+		Name string
+		Age int
+	}
+
+	func main() {
+		u := User{"man", 40}
+		valid := validation.Validation{}
+		valid.Required(u.Name, "name")
+		valid.MaxSize(u.Name, 15, "nameMax")
+		valid.Range(u.Age, 0, 140, "age")
+		if valid.HasErrors {
+			// validation does not pass
+			// print invalid message
+			for _, err := range valid.Errors {
+				log.Println(err.Key, err.Message)
+			}
+		}
+		// or use like this
+		if v := valid.Max(u.Age, 140); !v.Ok {
+			log.Println(v.Error.Key, v.Error.Message)
+		}
+	}
+
+Struct Tag Use:
+
+	import (
+		"github.com/astaxie/beego/validation"
+	)
+
+	// validation function follow with "valid" tag
+	// functions divide with ";"
+	// parameters in parentheses "()" and divide with ","
+	type user struct {
+		Id   int
+		Name string `valid:"Required"`
+		Age  int    `valid:"Required;Range(1, 140)"`
+	}
+
+	func main() {
+		valid := Validation{}
+		u := user{Name: "test", Age: 40}
+		b, err := valid.Valid(u)
+		if err != nil {
+			// handle error
+		}
+		if !b {
+			// validation does not pass
+			// blabla...
+		}
+	}
+
+Struct Tag Functions:
+
+	Required
+	Min(min int)
+	Max(max int)
+	Range(min, max int)
+	MinSize(min int)
+	MaxSize(max int)
+	Length(length int)
+	Alpha
+	Numeric
+	AlphaNumeric
+	Match(regexp string)		// does not support yet
+	NoMatch(regexp string)	// does not support yet
+	AlphaDash
+	Email
+	IP
+	Base64
