abstract out the rules for different validators? #37

Open gregcaporaso opened 9 years ago

gregcaporaso commented 9 years ago

Improvement Description Would it be possible to abstract out the rules, so that if (for example) we wanted to build a QIIME2-based (i.e., python) validator that could work without google access (e.g., while working on a plane, or somewhere where access to google is blocked such as parts of China or DoD/USDA facilities) we don't have to define these rules twice? Ideally, this could be used for auto-generating documentation as well.
