Thanks for the reminder. What is the expected behavior? 'list:string'
only accepts strings that are not empty. Are you trying to have at
least one item in the list?
We do not have a validator to do that but can make one:
class IS_LIST_SIZE(Validator):
def __init__(self, min=0,max=10,error_message='not in range'):
self.min = min
self.max=max
self.error_message = error_message
def __call__(self, value):
ivalue = value
if not isinstance(value, list):
ivalue = [ivalue]
if not self.min<=len(ivalue)<=self.max:
return (ivalue, self.error_message)
return (ivalue, None)
