class IS_THERE:
def __init__(db,fields, error_message='not there'):
self.db=db
self.fields=fields
self.error_message=error_message
def __call__(self,value):
for field in self.fields:
if self.db(field==value).count(): return (value,None)
return (value,self.error_message)
requires=IS_THERE(db,
(db.table1.field1,db.table2.field2,...db.table8,field8))
