base_grammar module

Base class for validating data structures.

class gemseo.core.grammars.base_grammar.BaseGrammar(name)[source]

Bases: Mapping[str, Any]

An abstract base class for grammars with a dictionary-like interface.

A grammar considers a certain type of data defined by mandatory and optional names bound to types. A name-type pair is referred to as a grammar element. A grammar can validate a data from these elements.

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the grammar.

Raises:

ValueError – If the name is empty.

add_namespace(name, namespace)[source]

Add a namespace prefix to an existing grammar element.

The updated element name will be namespace``+:data:`~gemseo.core.namespaces.namespace_separator`+``name.

Parameters:
  • name (str) – The element name to rename.

  • namespace (str) – The name of the namespace.

Raises:

ValueError – If the variable already has a namespace.

Return type:

None

clear()[source]

Empty the grammar.

Return type:

None

copy()

Create a shallow copy.

Returns:

The shallow copy.

Return type:

Self

get(k[, d]) D[k] if k in D, else d.  d defaults to None.
abstract is_array(name, numeric_only=False)[source]

Check if an element is an array.

Parameters:
  • name (str) – The name of the element.

  • numeric_only (bool) –

    Whether to check if the array elements are numbers.

    By default it is set to False.

Returns:

Whether the element is an array.

Raises:

KeyError – If the element is not in the grammar.

Return type:

bool

items() a set-like object providing a view on D's items
keys() a set-like object providing a view on D's keys
rename_element(current_name, new_name)[source]

Rename an element.

Parameters:
  • current_name (str) – The current name of the element.

  • new_name (str) – The new name of the element.

Return type:

None

restrict_to(names)[source]

Restrict the grammar to the given names.

Parameters:

names (Iterable[str]) – The names of the elements to restrict the grammar to.

Raises:

KeyError – If a name is not in the grammar.

Return type:

None

to_simple_grammar()[source]

Convert the grammar to a SimpleGrammar.

Returns:

A SimpleGrammar version of the current grammar.

Return type:

SimpleGrammar

update(grammar, exclude_names=(), merge=False)[source]

Update the grammar from another grammar.

Parameters:
  • grammar (Self) – The grammar to update from.

  • exclude_names (Iterable[str]) –

    The names of the elements that shall not be updated.

    By default it is set to ().

  • merge (bool) –

    Whether to merge or update the grammar.

    By default it is set to False.

Return type:

None

update_from_data(data, merge=False)[source]

Update the grammar from name-value pairs.

The updated elements are required.

Parameters:
  • data (Data) – The data from which to get the names and types, typically {element_name: element_value}.

  • merge (bool) –

    Whether to merge or update the grammar.

    By default it is set to False.

Return type:

None

update_from_names(names, merge=False)[source]

Update the grammar from names.

The updated elements are required and bind the names to NumPy arrays.

Parameters:
  • names (Iterable[str]) – The names to update from.

  • merge (bool) –

    Whether to merge or update the grammar.

    By default it is set to False.

Return type:

None

update_from_types(names_to_types, merge=False)[source]

Update the grammar from names bound to types.

The updated elements are required.

Parameters:
  • names_to_types (SimpleGrammarTypes) – The mapping defining the data names as keys, and data types as values.

  • merge (bool) –

    Whether to merge or update the grammar.

    By default it is set to False.

Return type:

None

validate(data, raise_exception=True)[source]

Validate data against the grammar.

Parameters:
  • data (Data) – The data to be checked, with a dictionary-like format: {element_name: element_value}.

  • raise_exception (bool) –

    Whether to raise an exception when the validation fails.

    By default it is set to True.

Raises:

InvalidDataError – If the validation fails and raise_exception is True.

Return type:

None

values() an object providing a view on D's values
DATA_CONVERTER_CLASS: ClassVar[str | type[BaseDataConverter[BaseGrammar]]]

The class or the class name of the data converter.

property data_converter: BaseDataConverter[BaseGrammar]

The converter of data values to NumPy arrays and vice versa.

property defaults: Defaults

The mapping from the names to the default values, if any.

from_namespaced: NamespacesMapping

The mapping from element names with namespace prefix to element names without namespace prefix.

name: str

The name of the grammar.

property names: KeysView[str]

The names of the elements.

property required_names: RequiredNames

The names of the required elements.

to_namespaced: NamespacesMapping

The mapping from element names without namespace prefix to element names with namespace prefix.
