Method Details [hide private]

__init__(self, verbose_name=None, default=None, required=False, **kwds)
(Constructor)

source code 

:args verbose_name: Optional verbose name. :args default: Optional default value; if omitted, an empty list is used. :args**kwds: Optional additional keyword arguments, passed to base class.

Note that the only permissible value for 'required' is True.

Overrides: object.__init__

validate(self, value, required=True)

source code 

validate value

Overrides: Property.validate
(inherited documentation)

default_value(self)

source code 
Default value for list.

Because the property supplied to 'default' is a static value,
that value must be shallow copied to prevent all fields with
default values from sharing the same instance.

Returns:
  Copy of the default value.

Overrides: Property.default_value

to_python(self, value)

source code 

convert to python type

Overrides: Property.to_python
(inherited documentation)

to_json(self, value)

source code 

convert to json, Converted value is saved in couchdb.

Overrides: Property.to_json
(inherited documentation)
