I'm not too familiar with SQLAlchemy yet, but I think there's no solution directly to validating at this point. I'm going to use ActiveMapper on my project and validators and manipulators are features that I'll have to add at some point. If you make your own, please let me know about it. Maybe validators and manipulators could be an extension to ActiveMapper class, because I don't think that SQLAlchemy developers like an idea to add them directly to ActiveMapper. What do you think about this guys? I'd love to see also other more features like this in ActiveMapper. There's bunch of great features in Django's ORM. Too bad that Django's ORM can't be decoupled to other projects. I'd be happy to contribute developing ActiveMapper to this direction.
