Method Details [hide private]

validate_value(self, value)

source code 

Check a value is of the desired form.

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

Parameters:
  • value - value to be checked
Returns:
success of validation.
Overrides: basevalidator.BaseValidator.validate_value
