datapackage-validate 0.0.3

A Python library to validate Data Package datapackage.json files.

# datapackage-validate-py

Validate [Data Package][] datapackage.json files against a jsonschema.

[Data Package]: http://data.okfn.org/doc/data-package

## Usage

```python
import datapackage_validate

try:
datapackage_validate.validate(datapackage, schema)
except datapackage_validate.exceptions.DataPackageValidateException as e:
e.errors # List with validation errors
```

The `datapackage` can be a json string or python dict.

The `schema` can be a json string, python dict, or a schema id corresponding with a schema from the registry of [Data Package Profiles][]. `schema` is optional, and will default to the `base` schema id if not provided.

`validate()` returns None. If there were errors during validation, it raises a
`datapackage_validate.exceptions.DataPackageValidateException` with a list of
the validation errors in its `.errors` property.
