# Validates whether the value of the specified attribute is available in a particular enumerable object.

# Configuration options:
# * :in - An enumerable object of available items
# * :message - Specifies a custom error message (default is: "is not included in the list")
# * :allow_nil - If set to +true+, skips this validation if the attribute is null (default is: +false+)
# * :allow_blank - If set to +true+, skips this validation if the attribute is blank (default is: +false+)
# * :if - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine if the validation should
# occur (e.g. :if => :allow_validation, or :if => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step > 2 }). The
# method, proc or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.
# * :unless - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine if the validation should
# not occur (e.g. :unless => :skip_validation, or :unless => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step <= 2 }). The
# method, proc or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.
