shoulda-matchers-uuid

This is a patch to shoulda-matchers that allows the uniqueness validation matchers to work with MySQL UUIDs. The current shoulda-matchers gem incorrectly increments UUID values when they are set as binary types (when using the mysql-binuuid-rails gem).

See the original shoulda-matchers PR that is likely not going to make it through.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'shoulda-matchers-uuid'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install shoulda-matchers-uuid

That's it! Use shoulda-matchers as usual to validate uniqueness of UUIDs.

Pre-requisite: brew install mysql, or whatever version of MySQL you prefer. We use this in our tests to verify that the full integration works as expected.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
