equals validation problem with numbers

[helnokaly]

The equals validation fails with numbers because it compares Number with String (1 === '1')

data: {
  num: 1
}

rules: {
  num: 'integer|equals:1'
}

validation:  {
  "errors": [
    {
      "field": "num",
      "validation": "equals",
      "message": "equals validation failed on num"
    }
  ]
}

Sorry for the late reply have been busy lately. I will cast the value to a number before running the validation. Thanks for reporting.
