The Unique
validator is a WTForms validator that checks if a field's value is unique in a database table. It can be used to prevent duplicate entries in a database table, such as usernames and email addresses.
To use the Unique
validator, you need to have Python and WTForms installed. You can install WTForms using pip:
$ pip install WTForms
To use the Unique
validator, you first need to import it from the WTForms.validators
module:
from wtforms.validators import Unique
Then you can use the Unique
validator in a WTForms field definition:
from wtforms import Form, StringField
from wtforms.validators import Unique
class UserForm(Form):
username = StringField('Username', validators=[Unique()])
In this example, the Unique
validator is applied to a StringField
called username
. When the form is submitted, the validator will check if the value of the username
field is unique in the database.
You can also specify the name of the database table and the column to check for uniqueness:
class UserForm(Form):
username = StringField('Username', validators=[Unique(
table='users',
column='username',
message='Username must be unique.'
)])
In this example, the Unique
validator is applied to a StringField
called username
, and it checks for uniqueness in the users
table in the username
column. If the value is not unique, it will display the message "Username must be unique."
The Unique
validator has some limitations:
Unique
validator can be slow.The Unique
validator is a useful tool for preventing duplicate entries in a database table. It can be used in combination with WTForms to create dynamic and secure web forms. However, it has some limitations that need to be taken into account when using it.
