GitHub - c-bata/pandas-validator: Validation Library for pandas' DataFrame and Series. (original) (raw)

pandas-validator

https://travis-ci.org/c-bata/pandas-validator.svg?branch=master Coveralls Status

Validates the pandas object such as DataFrame and Series. And this can define validator like django form class.

Why bugs occur in Data Wrangling with pandas

When we wrangle our data with pandas, We use DataFrame frequently. DataFrame is very powerfull and easy to handle. But DataFrame has no it's schema, so It allows irregular values without being aware of it. We are confused by these values and affect the results of data wrangling.

pandas-validator offers the functions for validating DataFrame or Series objects.

Overview

import pandas as pd import pandas_validator as pv

class SampleDataFrameValidator(pv.DataFrameValidator): row_num = 5 column_num = 2 label1 = pv.IntegerColumnValidator('label1', min_value=0, max_value=10) label2 = pv.FloatColumnValidator('label2', min_value=0, max_value=10)

validator = SampleDataFrameValidator()

df = pd.DataFrame({'label1': [0, 1, 2, 3, 4], 'label2': [5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0]}) validator.is_valid(df) # True.

df = pd.DataFrame({'label1': [11, 12, 13, 14, 15], 'label2': [5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0]}) validator.is_valid(df) # False.

df = pd.DataFrame({'label1': [0, 1, 2], 'label2': [5.0, 6.0, 7.0]}) validator.is_valid(df) # False
