validictory module¶
validate¶
- validictory.validate(data, schema, validator_cls=<class 'validictory.validator.SchemaValidator'>, format_validators=None, required_by_default=True, blank_by_default=False, disallow_unknown_properties=False, apply_default_to_data=False, fail_fast=True)¶
Validates a parsed json document against the provided schema. If an error is found a ValidationError is raised.
If there is an issue in the schema a SchemaError will be raised.
Parameters: - data – python data to validate
- schema – python dictionary representing the schema (see `schema format`_)
- validator_cls – optional validator class (default is SchemaValidator)
- format_validators – optional dictionary of custom format validators
- required_by_default – defaults to True, set to False to make required schema attribute False by default.
- disallow_unknown_properties – defaults to False, set to True to disallow properties not listed in the schema definition
- apply_default_to_data – defaults to False, set to True to modify the data in case the schema definition includes a “default” property
SchemaValidator¶
- class validictory.SchemaValidator(format_validators=None, required_by_default=True, blank_by_default=False, disallow_unknown_properties=False, apply_default_to_data=False, fail_fast=True)¶
Validator largely based upon the JSON Schema proposal but useful for validating arbitrary python data structures.
Parameters: - format_validators – optional dictionary of custom format validators
- required_by_default – defaults to True, set to False to make required schema attribute False by default.
- blank_by_default – defaults to False, set to True to make blank schema attribute True by default.
- disallow_unknown_properties – defaults to False, set to True to disallow properties not listed in the schema definition
- apply_default_to_data – defaults to False, set to True to modify the data in case the schema definition includes a “default” property
