PGV for python via just-in-time code generation
While protocol buffers effectively guarantee the types of structured data,
they cannot enforce semantic rules for values. This package is a python implementation
of protoc-gen-validate, which allows for runtime validation of various
semantic assertions expressed as annotations on the protobuf schema. The syntax for all available annotations is
in validate.proto
. Implemented Python annotations are listed in the rules comparison.
from entities_pb2 import Person
from protoc_gen_validate.validator import validate, ValidationFailed, validate_all
p = Person(name="Foo")
try:
validate(p)
except ValidationFailed as err:
print(err) # p.id is not greater than 999
try:
validate_all(p)
except ValidationFailed as err:
print(err)
# p.id is not greater than 999
# p.email is not a valid email
# p.name pattern does not match ^[^[0-9]A-Za-z]+( [^[0-9]A-Za-z]+)*$
# home is required.
