DOSDP Validator

DOSDP provides a validation interface for both CLI and Python.

From the CLI

$ dosdp validate -i <test.yaml or 'test folder'>

From Python

from dosdp import validator

validator.validate("test.yaml")

DOSDP validates given argument if it is a yaml/yml file. If argument is a folder, validates all pattern files located in the given directory.

Validation Steps

1. Test converstion of YAML to JSON
2. Validate against JSON schema (e.g. see dosdp_schema.md and dosdp_schema.yaml)
3. Test that all var names in printf statements are valid (declared) for the pattern
4. Checks quoted names in the printf_owl field correspond to dictionary entries in the pattern.
