PrettyQt Validators

PrettyQt ships a large number of predefined validators.

Apart from LineEdits, ComboBoxes and SpinBoxes, PlainTextEdits also gained the ability to take a validator.

The set_validator method also gained a "strict" keyword argument, which wraps the passed validator into a NotStrictValidator, effectively removing the "Invalid" state. That way there never is a situation where the user input is ignored, which might be preferred in a lot of situations.

The acceptance of "" may also be overriden explicitely by setting the "allow_empty" keyword argument.

Validators can also be combined. The resulting CompositeValidator checks if all containing validators accept the input.

Example:

val_1 = BlackListValidator(["Blacklisted word"])
val_2 = AlphanumericValidator()
and_validator = val_1 & val_2  # returns an AndValidator

val_1 = AlphanumericValidator()
val_2 = RegularExpressionValidator("some_regex")
or_val = val_1 | val_2 # returns an OrValidator

Validators can also be set by an id. Since everything is typed with Literals, the possible ids should be shown by your IDE.

lineedit.set_validator("float")
