nilify_blanks alternatives - auto_strip_attributes and attribute_normalizer

• nilify_blanks

  2 325 0.0 Ruby

  Provides a framework for saving incoming blank values as nil in the database in instances where you'd rather use DB NULL than simply a blank string.

• auto_strip_attributes

  4 355 1.6 Ruby

  AutoStripAttributes gem for Rails helps to remove unnecessary whitespaces from ActiveRecord or ActiveModel attributes. It's good for removing accidental spaces from user inputs (e.g. when user copy/pastes some value to a form and the value has extra spaces at the end).

I found **auto_strip_attributes** recommended and discussed here https://discuss.rubyonrails.org/t/database-fields-are-polluted-with-both-nil-and-empty-values-when-submitting-forms/74877/6
