+=head1 NAME
+
+DBIx::Class::Validation - Validate all data before submitting to your database.
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+In your base DBIC package:
+
+  __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/... Validation/);
+
+And in your subclasses:
+
+  __PACKAGE__->validation(
+    module => 'FormValidator::Simple',
+    profile => { ... },
+    auto => 1,
+  );
+
+And then somewhere else:
+
+  eval{ $obj->validate() };
+  if( my $results = $EVAL_ERROR ){
+    ...
+  }
+
+=head1 METHODS
+
+=head2 validation
+
+  __PACKAGE__->validation(
+    module => 'FormValidator::Simple',
+    profile => { ... },
+    auto => 1,
+  );
+
+Calls validation_module(), validation_profile(), and validation_auto() if the corresponding 
+argument is defined.
+
+=head2 validation_module
+
+  __PACKAGE__->validation_module('Data::FormValidator');
+
+Sets the validation module to use.  Any module that supports a check() method just like 
+Data::FormValidator's can be used here, such as FormValidator::Simple.
+
+Defaults to FormValidator::Simple.
+
+=head2 validation_profile
+
+  __PACKAGE__->validation_profile(
+    { ... }
+  );
+
+Sets the profile that will be passed to the validation module.
+
+=head2 validation_auto
+
+  __PACKAGE__->validation_auto( 1 );
+
+This flag, when enabled, causes any updates or inserts of the class 
+to call validate() before actually executing.
+
+=head2 validate
+
+  $obj->validate();
+
+Validates all the data in the object against the pre-defined validation 
+module and profile.  If there is a problem then a hard error will be 
+thrown.  If you put the validation in an eval you can capture whatever 
+the module's check() method returned.
+
+=head2 auto_validate
+
+  __PACKAGE__->auto_validate( 0 );
+
+Turns on and off auto-validation.  This feature makes all UPDATEs and 
+INSERTs call the validate() method before doing anything.  The default 
+is for auto-validation to be on.
+
+Defaults to on.
