RIOS.CORE is a Python package that provides basic validation and formatting functionality for data structures that adhere to the RIOS specifications (formally known as PRISMH).
This package exposes a handful of simple functions for validating and formatting the standard RIOS data structures:
>>> from rios.core import validate_instrument, get_instrument_json
>>> instrument = {"foo": "bar", "id": "urn:my-instrument", "title": "An Instrument Title", "record": [{"id": "field1","type": "text"}], "version": "1.0"}
>>> validate_instrument(instrument)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
colander.Invalid: {'': u'Unrecognized keys in mapping: "{\'foo\': \'bar\'}"'}
>>> del instrument['foo']
>>> validate_instrument(instrument)
>>> print get_instrument_json(instrument)
{
"id": "urn:my-instrument",
"version": "1.0",
"title": "An Instrument Title",
"record": [
{
"id": "field1",
"type": "text"
}
]
}
For more information on the available functionality, please read the API documentation.
