Unique Names

Unique Names is a Schema Constraint that checks if a model name is unique within a package. If two models within the same package share a name, the Unique Names constraint will fail.

Models in different packages can have the same name, and different packages can have the same name. But within the package each model must have a unique name.

Here are some example definition groupings.

The first example pair is valid because they are different names, even though they are in the same package, package_one.

schema:
  name: model_one
  package: package_one
  description: First example model
---
schema:
  name: model_one_a
  package: package_one
  description: Version a of first example model

The second example pair is valid even though they have the same names, because they are in different packages, package_one and package_two.

schema:
  name: model_one
  package: package_one
  description: First example model package one
---
schema:
  name: model_one
  package: package_two
  description: First example model package two

And the third example pair is invalid because they have the same name and are in the same package.

schema:
  name: model_one
  package: package_one
  description: First example model
---
schema:
  name: model_one
  package: package_one
  description: Second example model
