Validate relationships against available datasources and fields

Source: R/validators.R
validate_relationships.Rd

Checks that relationship endpoints reference known datasource tables and that the predicate fields appear somewhere in the workbook (calculated, raw, or parameter fields), using a lenient token match (e.g., INT([GEOID]) → GEOID).

Usage

validate_relationships(parser, strict = FALSE)

Arguments

parser

A TwbParser-like object that exposes: get_relationships(), get_datasources(), get_fields(), and get_calculated_fields(). (S3/R6 both fine.)

strict

Logical. Reserved for future table‑scoped checks that can be overly conservative with federated sources. Currently not used.

Value

A list with:

ok

TRUE if no issues; FALSE otherwise.

issues

A named list of tibbles. Possible elements:

  • unknown_tables: endpoints not found among known tables.

  • unknown_fields: predicate fields not found in the field pool.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
res <- validate_relationships(parser)
if (!res$ok) print(res$issues)
} # }
