Visualize.Chart.Validator (Visualize v0.2.35)

Validates a design map against the schema (spec/14 §10).

validate/1 walks the map with Visualize.Chart.Schema and returns every fault it finds as {path, reason}: the path is the list of keys and indexes from the design to the faulty value, [:marks, 1, :channels, :y], and the reason one of the terms of spec/14 §10.1. References — scales, styles, sources, variables, fields, theme slots — resolve against the design itself, so a design is self-contained or it does not validate. format/1 renders an error as a line a person reads.

Examples

iex> Visualize.Chart.Validator.validate(%{version: 2})
{:error, [{[:frames], :required}]}
iex> Visualize.Chart.Validator.format({[:marks, 1, :channels, :y], :required})
"marks[1].channels.y: is required"

Summary

Types

error()

path()

Keys and list indexes from the design to a value; [] is the design.

reason()

Why a value is at fault (spec/14 §10.1).

Functions

format(arg)

One error as path: reason in words; the path in marks[1].channels.y form.

format_path(path)

A path as a person reads it — design for the root, else frame.scales.x, marks[0].channels — the one spelling every error, node label and rendered data-node uses (spec/14 §4.7, §18.5).

validate(map)

:ok, or every fault of the design ordered by path.

validate(map, kind)

:ok, or every fault of a fragment read as a kind — per-kind validity (spec/14 §19.8).

Types

error()

@type error() :: {path(), reason()}

path()

@type path() :: [atom() | non_neg_integer()]

Keys and list indexes from the design to a value; [] is the design.

Why a value is at fault (spec/14 §10.1).

Functions

format(arg)

@spec format(error()) :: String.t()

One error as path: reason in words; the path in marks[1].channels.y form.

format_path(path)

@spec format_path(path()) :: String.t()

A path as a person reads it — design for the root, else frame.scales.x, marks[0].channels — the one spelling every error, node label and rendered data-node uses (spec/14 §4.7, §18.5).

iex> Visualize.Chart.Validator.format_path([:marks, 0, :channels])
"marks[0].channels"
iex> Visualize.Chart.Validator.format_path([])
"design"

validate(map)

@spec validate(term()) :: :ok | {:error, [error(), ...]}

:ok, or every fault of the design ordered by path.

validate(map, kind)

@spec validate(term(), atom()) :: :ok | {:error, [error(), ...]}

:ok, or every fault of a fragment read as a kind — per-kind validity (spec/14 §19.8).

A design is validated whole. A composite must be %{composite: %{uses, vars}} and nothing else, its uses sites. Any other kind is the singular body under its key — %{style: %{…}}, %{frames: %{main: %{…}}} — walked with that kind's schema and no design around it, so a reference to a scale, style, source, variable or field the fragment does not declare is not a fault: a fragment is a piece, and what it refers to is bound where it is composed. A fragment whose one key is not the kind's is refused as {:type, {:node, kind}}.
