Validate data against the schema

Validate data against the schema

Run linkml-validate -s src/cis_controls/schema/cis_controls.yaml -C CisSafeguard safeguard.yaml, naming the class the file holds. It checks the file against the JSON Schema the validator generates from the schema, and tests/test_data.py holds every example to the same check.¹

Validate a file before loading it into either model in src/cis_controls/datamodel/. The page says that the models LinkML 1.12.1 generates check less:

• the dataclasses check required fields and enum values, but no pattern;
• the Pydantic models also check the patterns a field carries itself, such as the form of cis_version, but not the patterns of the two identifier types.

No validator checks three rules:

• a Safeguard’s identifier starts with the number of the Control it is listed under;
• a list never repeats an identifier or an Implementation Group;
• the Implementation Groups are cumulative: the validator checks that every Safeguard is in IG3, but not that a Safeguard in IG1 is in IG2 too.

tests/test_data.py checks all three over every valid example.
