A easy to use validator for json content
Project description
Believe
Motivation
- We often need to compare expected results in our test. It's lousy to check expected result under the following way.
import uuid
class TestCases:
def test_user(self):
user = {
"name": "John",
"id": "30e7b1e2-4c80-44c2-8fe5-23bad73ed8f2"
}
assert set("name", "id") == set(user.keys())
assert isinstance(user["name"], str)
assert 0 < len(user["name"]) < 64
assert isinstance(user["id"], str)
uuid.UUID(user["id"])
- By using this package, we could compare the value using the following way. It's easier to read and maintain.
import believe as B
class TestCases:
def test_user(self):
user = {
"name": "John",
"id": "30e7b1e2-4c80-44c2-8fe5-23bad73ed8f2"
}
assert user == {"name": B.AnyStr(min_len=1, max_len=63),
"id": B.AnyUUID()}
- If you are looking for web framework input validation, I suggest use FastAPI. It properly integrate with openapi as well.
Installation
pip install believe
Basic usage
import believe as B
import time
# Match any string
assert B.AnyStr() == "any_str"
# Match string length >= 1 and <= 10
assert B.AnyStr(min_len=1, max_len=10) == "a"
# Match any string that can be converted to int
assert B.AnyIntStr() == "123"
# Match any UUID format string
assert B.AnyUUID() == "732c0743-2638-47d5-902d-0daa3080348b"
# Match any sha1 string
assert B.AnySHA1() == "b130c4b97d0640eaf3f45f7360a5b4dbbf561f58"
# Match any IPv4 string
assert B.AnyIPV4() == "1.2.3.4"
# Match integer that is >=1 and <= 10
assert B.AnyInt(min_value=1, max_value=10) == 5
# Match any float that is >= 1.0 and <= 10.0
assert B.AnyFloat(min_value=1.0, max_value=10.0) == 5.0 # 1.0 <= X <= 10.0
# Match if values is "one" or "two"
assert B.OneOf("one", "two") == "one"
# Sometimes we don't care about the order, we can use AnyOrder
assert B.AnyOrder([1, 2, 3]) == [2, 1, 3]
# Sometimes we assign value as timestamp but test cases takes more than 1 sec
# We can use almost to accept a range of values
assert B.Almost(time.time(), ts_range=3) == time.time() # Allow 3 sec gap
# If we allow None or any string
assert B.Nullable(B.AnyStr()) == None
assert B.Nullable(B.AnyStr()) == "123"
# Only check type
assert B.Any(bytes) == b'123'
# Reverse check result, anything but "A" or "B"
assert B.Not(B.OneOf("A", "B")) == "C"
# Match list
assert B.ListOf(B.AnyStr()) == ["A", "B", "C"]
assert B.ListOf(B.AnyStr(), n_item=3) == ["A", "B", "C"] # exact 3 items
assert B.ListOf(B.AnyStr(), min_item=1) == ["A", "B", "C"] # >= 1 items
assert B.ListOf(B.AnyStr(), max_item=5) == ["A", "B", "C"] # <= 5 items
Advance Usage
# If we don't want to use json.load('{"foo": "bar"}') == {"foo": "bar"}, we can use the following way
assert B.AnyJsonStr({"foo": "bar"}) == '{"foo": "bar"}'
# We can use AnyUrl to compare the normalized url
# 1. We can compare one with default port and one without, they are identical
assert B.AnyUrl("https://foo.com/") == "https://foo.com:443/"
assert B.AnyUrl("http://foo.com/") == "http://foo.com:80/"
# 2. We can ignore the order in query string
assert B.AnyUrl("https://foo.com/bar?p1=1&p2=2") == "https://foo.com/bar?p2=2&p1=1"
# We can use Dict to compare a dict with Optional field
assert B.Dict({"name": B.AnyStr(), "value": B.Optional(B.AnyStr())}) == {"name": "abc"}
assert B.Dict({"name": B.AnyStr(), "value": B.Optional(B.AnyStr())}) == {"name": "abc", "value": "def"}
# If key is a dynamic value, we can use DictOf(<key_matcher>, <value_matcher>)
# i.e. We want to match a dict with random uuid as key
assert B.DictOf(B.AnyUUID(), B.OneOf("ok", "fail")) == {"732c0743-2638-47d5-902d-0daa3080348b": "ok",
"5cfd50ba-c3d3-4fb7-b2fe-e9a6e039ad29": "fail"}
Use Validate Function
# validate with error exception
import believe as B
validator = B.Dict({"name": B.AnyInt()})
B.validate(validator, {"name": "ken"}) # believe.error.ValidateError: [e_path=$.name] 'ken' != AnyInt()
A Complex Example
import believe as B
import time
result_json = {"name": "john",
"age": 32,
"download_link": "https://download.server.com/?name=john&id=abc",
"role": "admin",
"address": "10.1.2.3",
"updated_at": int(time.time()),
"tags": ["admin", "john"]}
exp_result = B.Dict({"name": B.AnyStr(min_len=1, max_len=64),
"age": B.AnyInt(min_value=0, max_value=200),
"download_link": B.AnyUrl("https://download.server.com/?id=abc&name=john"),
"role": B.OneOf("admin", "user"),
"address": B.AnyIPV4(),
"updated_at": B.Almost(int(time.time())),
"tags": B.ListOf(B.AnyStr()),
"extra": B.Optional(B.Nullable(B.AnyStr()))})
B.validate(exp_result, result_json)
