deirokay.statements.builtin.not_null.NotNull

class deirokay.statements.builtin.not_null.NotNull(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: BaseStatement

Check if the rows of a scoped DataFrame are not null, possibly setting boundaries for the minimum and maximum percentage of not-null rows.

The available options are:

  • at_least_%: The minimum percentage of not-null rows. Default: 100.0.

  • at_most_%: The maximum percentage of not-null rows. Default: 100.0.

  • multicolumn_logic: The logic to use when checking for not-null values in multicolumn scopes (either ‘any’ or ‘all’). Default: ‘any’.

Be careful When using multicolumn scopes: the any logic considers a row as null only if all columns are null. The all logic considers a row as null when any of its columns is null.

Examples

  • You want to ensure that less than 1% of the values in a column foo are null. You can declare the following validation item:

{
    "scope": "foo",
    "statements": [
        {
            "name": "not_null",
            "at_least_%": 99.0
        }
    ]
}

You noticed that you imposed a unrealistic value for at_least_%, and maybe less than 10% should be a reasonable percentage of null values. Still, you don’t want to lose track of that ideal <= 1% checks, since you intend to improve your data quality in the near future. You may take advantage of severity to set different exception levels for different values of at_least_%:

{
    "scope": "foo",
    "statements": [
        {
            "name": "not_null",
            "at_least_%": 99.0,
            "severity": 3
        },
        {
            "name": "not_null",
            "at_least_%": 90.0,
            "severity": 5
        }
    ]
}

This way, values between 90% and 99% will only raise a warning, while values below 90% will raise a validation exception (by default).

  • You don’t tolerate any null values in a list of columns:

{
    "scope": ["foo", "bar", "baz", "qux"],
    "statements": [
        {
            "name": "not_null",
            "multicolumn_logic": "all"
        }
    ]
}

Methods

attach_backend

Generate a subclass that concretizes multibackend backend methods into their intended name.

get_backend

Get current active backend for this class.

profile

Given a template data table, generate a statement dict from it.

register_backend_method

Proxy for register_backend_method to register an existing function as a backend-specific method.

report

Receive a DataFrame containing only columns on the scope of validation and returns a report of related metrics that can be used later to declare this Statement as fulfilled or failed.

result

Receive the report previously generated and declare this statement as either fulfilled (True) or failed (False).

Attributes

expected_parameters

Parameters expected for this statement.

name

Statement name when referred in Validation Documents (only valid for Deirokay built-in statements).

supported_backends

Backends supported by this resource.

__call__(df: DeirokayDataSource) dict

Run statement instance.

classmethod __init_subclass__() None

Validate subclassed statement.

classmethod __post_attach_backend__()

This classmethod can be optionally overwritten to serve as a callback function for when the attach_backend() method is called.

classmethod attach_backend(backend: Backend) Type[_AnyMultiBackendClass]

Generate a subclass that concretizes multibackend backend methods into their intended name. The methods marked with the given backend will compose the returned class.

Parameters
  • cls (type) – Class to be subclassed with the given backend.

  • backend (Backend) – Backend to be selected.

Returns

Subclass of the current class with methods filtered for the given backend.

Return type

Type[MultiBackendMixin]

expected_parameters: List[str] = ['at_least_%', 'at_most_%', 'multicolumn_logic']

Parameters expected for this statement.

Type

List[str]

classmethod get_backend() Backend

Get current active backend for this class.

Returns

The current active backend.

Return type

Backend

Raises

InvalidBackend – Backend not set or not a valid execution class.

name: str = 'not_null'

Statement name when referred in Validation Documents (only valid for Deirokay built-in statements).

Type

str

static profile(df: DeirokayDataSource) Dict[str, Any]

Given a template data table, generate a statement dict from it.

Parameters

df (DataFrame) – The DataFrame to be used as template.

Returns

Statement dict.

Return type

dict

Raises

NotImplementedError – If this method is not implemented by the subclass or the profile generation for this statement was intentionally skipped.

classmethod register_backend_method(alias_for: str, func: Callable[[...], Any], backend: Backend) None

Proxy for register_backend_method to register an existing function as a backend-specific method.

Parameters
  • alias_for (str) – The name of the method to be substituted with a backend-specific version.

  • func (AnyCallable) – Existing function to be registered as a method.

  • backend (Backend) – Backend for the method.

report(df: DeirokayDataSource) dict

Receive a DataFrame containing only columns on the scope of validation and returns a report of related metrics that can be used later to declare this Statement as fulfilled or failed.

Parameters

df (DataFrame) – The scoped DataFrame columns to be analysed in this report by this statement.

Returns

A dictionary of useful statistics about the target columns.

Return type

dict

result(report: dict) bool[source]

Receive the report previously generated and declare this statement as either fulfilled (True) or failed (False).

Parameters

report (dict) – Report generated by report method. Should ideally contain all statistics necessary to evaluate the statement validity.

Returns

Whether or not this statement passed.

Return type

bool

supported_backends: List[Backend] = [<Backend.PANDAS: 'pandas'>, <Backend.DASK: 'dask'>]
