>>> v([1, 2, 3])
[1, 2, 3]

Method Details [hide private]

convert_value(self, value)

source code 

Transform a value to the desired form.

This is the workhorse method that is called by convert to transform passed values. As such, errors are signalled by throwing a meaningful exception. This is one of the obvious and easiest places to customize behaviour by overriding in a subclass.

Parameters:
  • value - value to be transformed
Returns:
the transformed value
Overrides: basevalidator.BaseValidator.convert_value
