dcc_validate_rules: Validate a rule set before it is used

Description

Checks a dcc_rules rule set for structural problems -- unknown types, missing required fields, duplicate or empty IDs -- and returns a structured report. It never evaluates rules against data and never changes anything.

Usage

dcc_validate_rules(rules)

Value

A dcc_validation object: a data.table with code, severity, field, rows (affected row indices, a list column), fix, and optional workbook location fields workbook, sheet, row, column, and cell.

Arguments

rules

A dcc_ruleset from dcc_rules (or the rules element of a dcc_config).

             "    min: 0", "    max: 100"), rf)
if (requireNamespace("yaml", quietly = TRUE)) {
  dcc_validate_rules(dcc_rules(rf))
