bad_names = ['list', 'of', 'bad', 'names']
db.define_table(...,
Field('name', requires=IS_MATCH(r'^(?!%s)' % '|'.join('%s$' % w for w
in bad_names)),
...)
The above will produce a regular expression like:
r'^(?!list$|of$|bad$|names$)'
which will match anything except what is in the list.
Alternatively, you could make a custom
validator:
