Subject: py: Implement JSON validation in nftables module
X-Git-Tag: v0.9.1~51
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ef2ff133007855707f978f75ac638af3d5c06fbe;p=thirdparty%2Fnftables.git

py: Implement JSON validation in nftables module

Using jsonschema it is possible to validate any JSON input to make sure
it formally conforms with libnftables JSON API requirements.

Implement a simple validator class for use within a new Nftables class
method 'json_validate' and ship a minimal schema definition along with
the package.
