Install dependencies

You must have python installed to use these scripts.

it is also necessary to install the validation package dependencies, use pip package manager for this:

$ python -m pip install -r scripts/requirements.txt

Run validations

To run format validation on the README.md file, being in the root directory of public-apis, run:

$ python scripts/validate/format.py README.md

To run link validation on the README.md file, being in the root directory of public-apis, run:

$ python scripts/validate/links.py README.md

As there are many links to check, this process can take some time. If your goal is not to check if the links are working, you can only check for duplicate links. Run:

$ python scripts/validate/links.py README.md -odlc

-odlc is an abbreviation of --only_duplicate_links_checker

Running Tests

To run all tests it is necessary to change to the scripts directory:

$ cd scripts

then run:

$ python -m unittest discover tests/ --verbose

To run only the format tests, run:

$ python -m unittest discover tests/ --verbose --pattern "test_validate_format.py"

To run only the links tests, run:

$ python -m unittest discover tests/ --verbose --pattern "test_validate_links.py"
