OrRule

Validation rule that allows you to check combinations of rules created with OR logical operations.

Implements: IValidationRule

Description

The OrRule class allows you to validate combinations of rules created with OR logical operations.

Important points

  • When one of the combined rules returns no errors, then this rule also returns no errors.
  • When all combined rules return errors, then this rule returns all the errors.

Constructors

Creates a new validation rule and sets its values.

OrRule(*rules: IValidationRule)

Instance methods

validate

Validates a given value against this rule.

validate(path: str, schema: Schema, value: Any, results: List[ValidationResult])

  • path: str - a dot notation path to the value.
  • schema: Schema - a schema this rule is called from
  • value: Any - a value to be validated.
  • results: List[ValidationResult] - a list with validation results to add new results.

Examples

schema = Schema().with_rule(OrRule(ValueComparisonRule("LT", 1), ValueComparisonRule("GT", 10)))

schema.validate(0)          # Result: no error
schema.validate(5)          # Result: 5 must be less than 1 or 5 must be more than 10
schema.validate(20)         # Result: no error
