This validator checks to see if a given numerical output is within an expected range.
$ guardrails hub install hub://guardrails/valid_range
In this example, we’ll use the validator to check that a field of a JSON output is within an expected range.
# Import Guard and Validator
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from guardrails.hub import ValidRange
from guardrails import Guard
# Initialize Validator
val = ValidRange(min=0, max=10, on_fail="exception")
# Create Pydantic BaseModel
class PetInfo(BaseModel):
pet_name: str
pet_age: int = Field(validators=[val])
# Create a Guard to check for valid Pydantic output
guard = Guard.from_pydantic(output_class=PetInfo)
# Run LLM output generating JSON through guard
guard.parse(
"""
{
"pet_name": "Caesar",
"pet_age": 5
}
"""
)
try:
# Run LLM output generating JSON through guard
guard.parse(
"""
{
"pet_name": "Caesar",
"pet_age": 15
}
"""
)
except Exception as e:
print(e)
Output:
Validation failed for field with errors: Value 15 is greater than 10.
__init__(self, min=None, max=None, on_fail="noop")
Initializes a new instance of the Validator class.
Parameters:
min
(int): The inclusive minimum value of the range.max
(int): The inclusive maximum value of the range.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.validate(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.
