This validator ensures that any LLM generated text is readable within an expected reading time. The reading time estimation is done at 200 words / min.
$ guardrails hub install hub://guardrails/reading_time
In this example, we’ll use the validator to validate that an LLM description is under 5 seconds of reading time.
# Import Guard and Validator
from guardrails.hub import ReadingTime
from guardrails import Guard
FIVE_SECONDS = 5 / 60
# Use the Guard with the validator
guard = Guard().use(ReadingTime, reading_time=FIVE_SECONDS, on_fail="exception")
# Test passing response
guard.validate("Azure is a cloud computing service created by Microsoft.")
try:
# Test failing response
guard.validate(

__init__(self, reading_time, on_fail="noop")
Initializes a new instance of the Validator class.
Parameters:
reading_time (float): The maximum reading time in minutes.on_fail (str, Callable): The policy to enact when a validator fails. If str, must be one of reask, fix, filter, refrain, noop, exception or fix_reask. Otherwise, must be a function that is called when the validator fails.__call__(self, value, metadata={}) -> ValidationResult
Validates the given value using the rules defined in this validator, relying on the metadata provided to customize the validation process. This method is automatically invoked by guard.parse(...), ensuring the validation logic is applied to the input data.
Note:
guard.parse(...) where this method will be called internally for each associated Validator.guard.parse(...), ensure to pass the appropriate metadata dictionary that includes keys and values required by this validator. If guard is associated with multiple validators, combine all necessary metadata into a single dictionary.Parameters:
value (Any): The input value to validate.metadata (dict): A dictionary containing metadata required for validation. No additional metadata keys are needed for this validator.The validator playground is available to authenticated users. Please log in to use it.
