This validator supports the same validations that are available on the IIIF <http://iiif.io/> website at <http://iiif.io/api/image/validator/>.

Installation

Installation from pypi

The following should install scripts, library, and the necessary dependencies::

   pip install iiif-validator

Manual installation

Installation from source code <https://github.com/IIIF/image-validator> can de done with::

python setup.py install

which should install scripts, library, and the necessary dependencies. Note that setup.py includes directives to pin certain libraries to particular versions for compatibility.

The python-magic module requires libmagic which, on a mac, one can install with::

brew install libmagic

Command line validator, iiif-validate.py

Then for an image served at http://localhost:8000/prefix/image_id the validator can be run with::

iiif-validate.py -s localhost:8000 -p prefix -i image_id --version=2.0 -v

or similar to validate server with the test image. Use iiif-validate -h for parameter details.

Use with Travis CI

To install dependencies for this code the following lines must
be present in the ``install:`` section of ``.travis.yml``::

    install:
      - sudo apt-get update
      - sudo apt-get install libmagic-dev
      - pip install iiif_validator
      ...

and then a single validation can be added to the commands under
the ``script:`` section of ``.travis.yml``. For example, to test a
server running with base URI ``http://localhost:8000/prefix`` with
image ``image_id1`` at version 1.1, level 1, one might use::

    script:
      ...
      - iiif-validate.py -s localhost:8000 -p prefix -i image_id1 --version=1.1 --level 1 --quiet

The ``iiif-validate.py`` script returns 0 exit code on success, non-zero
on failure, in order to work easily with Travis CI.

Running the validator server, ``iiif-validator.py``
---------------------------------------------------

The primary installation of the validator server is on the `IIIF
<http://iiif.io/>`_ website at
`<http://iiif.io/api/image/validator/>`_.

Stand-alone server

The validator server runs at <http://localhost:8080/>_ by default, the URI path is the test name and then the query parameters give the details of the server and image to be tested. The URI pattern is::

http://localhost:8080/{test_name}?server={server}&prefix={prefix}&identifer={id}&version={api_version}

As an example, if the test server https://pypi.python.org/pypi/iiif is installed and run locally::

easy_install iiif
iiif_testserver.py

which will set up a server at <http://localhost:8000/>_ and write the log of accesses to STDOUT. The one can run validation tests against this with requests like <http://localhost:8080/info_json?server=localhost:8000&prefix=/2.0_pil_none&identifier=67352ccc-d1b0-11e1-89ae-279075081939.png&version=2.0>_ which tests the info.json response and gives JSON output (pretty formatted here)::

{
  "test": "info_json",
  "status": "success",
  "tests": ["required-field: width", "required-field: height", "type-is-int: height", "type-is-int: width", "required-field: @id", "type-is-uri: @id", "@id is correct URI", "required-field: @context", "correct-context", "required-field: protocol", "correct-protocol", "required-field: profile", "is-list", "profile-compliance", "is-list", "is-object", "required-field: scaleFactors", "required-field: width", "type-is-int: width"],
  "url": ["http://localhost:8000/2.0_pil_none/67352ccc-d1b0-11e1-89ae-279075081939.png/info.json"],
  "label": "Check Image Information"
}

and <http://localhost:8080/rot_mirror?server=localhost:8000&prefix=/2.0_pil_none&identifier=67352ccc-d1b0-11e1-89ae-279075081939.png&version=2.0>_ which tests mirroring and will give JSON output (again pretty formatted)::

{
  "test": "rot_mirror",
  "status": "success",
  "tests": ["9,0:True", "0,9:True"],
  "url": ["http://localhost:8000/2.0_pil_none/67352ccc-d1b0-11e1-89ae-279075081939.png/full/full/!0/default.jpg"],
  "label": "Mirroring"
}

Validator server under WSGI

*need docs here*

Running with Vagrant
--------------------

For ease of development and local testing, you can provision a virtual machine using Vagrant. To start Vagrant, ssh in, and run the validator on a site::

    vagrant up
    vagrant ssh
    cd /vagrant
    ./iiif-validate.py -h
    ./iiif-validate.py --scheme=https -s iiif.lib.ncsu.edu -p iiif --level=2 -i 67352ccc-d1b0-11e1-89ae-279075081939

In addition, the Vagrant configuration runs the validator as a WSGI application using ``mod_wsgi`` and Apache ``httpd``, accessible both from with the VM as well as the host machine at `<http://localhost:8080/>`_.

Running with Docker
--------------------

```
    docker build -t image-validator . && docker run --rm --name image-validator -p 9001:80 image-validator:latest
```

Then navigate to:

    http://localhost:9001/api/image/validator/service/id_basic?version=2.0&server=server&prefix=prefix&identifier=identifier
