flask-validictory

Simple integration between Flask and Validictory.

Usage

The easiest way to get everything working is as follows:

# Note that this is a python dict rather than pure json. This allows
# you to aggregate common aspects of schemas.
test1_schema = {'type': 'object',
                'properties': {'name': {'type': 'string'}, 'email': {'type': 'string', 'format': 'email'}},
                'required': ['email']}

@app.route('/test1', methods=['POST'])
@expects_json(test1_schema)
def test1():
    json = response.json()
    # do some work
    
@app.errorhandler(FieldValidationError)
def on_error(e):
    return 'error'

You can also set up an error handler for ValueError to handle poorly formed Json.
