Validation¶

To validate datapackage resources and schemas, dpetl uses frictionless-py.

Validation can occur in two stages:

Before processing: validates the entire datapackage when --validate-before is used.
After processing: validates each processed resource.

Validation behavior depends on the command:

extract: validates each resource after download. --validate-before is not supported.
transform: validates each resource after transformation. Use --validate-before to validate the entire datapackage before processing.
load: validates before publishing only if --validate-before is used.

Flags¶

Flag	Description
`--validate-before`, `-vb`	Run validation before processing (not supported for `extract`)
`--no-validate`, `-nv`	Skip all validation
`--no-stop`, `-ns`	Continue processing resources even when validation errors are found
