A Schema object

A valid Schema of the options for action

Filter Functions

Functions validating the filter Schema of an action

curator.validators.filter_functions.filterstructure()

Return a Schema object that uses the return value from structural_filter_elements() to populate acceptable values and updates/merges the Schema object with the return value from filtertype()

Returns:

A Schema object

curator.validators.filter_functions.filtertype()

Return a Schema object that uses all_filtertypes() to populate acceptable values

Returns:

A Schema object

curator.validators.filter_functions.singlefilter(action, data)

Return a Schema object that is created using the return value from filtertype() to create a local variable ftype. The values from action and data are used to update ftype based on matching function names in filtertypes.

structural_filter_elements() to populate acceptable values and updates/merges the Schema object with the return value from filtertype()
