prismh.core 0.4.0

Example Usage

This package exposes a handful of simple functions for validating and formatting the standard PRISMH data structures:

>>> from prismh.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.
