is_valid_identifier
- is_valid_identifier(prefix: str, identifier: str) bool [source]
Check if the pre-parsed CURIE is standardized valid.
- Parameters:
prefix – The prefix from a compact URI
identifier – The local unique identifer from a compact URI

If the CURIE is standardized in both syntax and semantics. This means that it uses the Bioregistry canonical prefix, does not have a redundant prefix, and if available, matches the Bioregistry’s regular expression pattern for identifiers.
