Json Schema minimum validator but for string - python-3.x

Question

using:
from jsonschema import validate
import jsonschema
I am trying to validate a minimum of 4096 with no upper bound on a string using json schema. I see regex pattern matching may be an option but unsure of how to do this with no upper bound.
json_data = {"value": "4096"}
# what i would like to do
json_schema = {"type": "string", "minimum": 4096}
try:
validate(json_data, schema=json_schema)
return True
except jsonschema.ValidationError:
return False
Really appreciate any input. Please comment if other info is needed. Thank you.

Answer 1

First you should enter your value as int instead of string.
Then you're checking the schema of your whole json object, from which value is a key/property:
from jsonschema import validate
import jsonschema
json_data = {"value": 4096}
json_schema = {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"value": {
"type": "number",
"minimum": 4096
}
}
}
try:
validate(json_data, schema=json_schema)
print(True)
except jsonschema.ValidationError:
print(False)
Try the above code with values < 4096 and >= 4096
EDIT: if changing the type of value is not an option, you can still use regex (in my opinion far uglier):
json_schema = {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"value": {
"type": "string",
"pattern": "^\d{5,}|[5-9]\d{3}|4[1-9]\d\d|409[6-9]$"
}
}
}
This supposes your string has no leading zeroes and no kind of separators (,, ....). We match the following:
\d{5,}: 5 or more digits (>= 10000)
[5-9]\d{3}: 5 to 9 followed by 3 digits (5000-9999)
4[1-9]\d\d: 4100 to 4999
409[6-9]: 4096 to 4099
