You should define a python constraint

_constraints = [(_function_name, warning_string, list_of_relevant_attributes)]
ex :

_constraints = [(_check_empty_string, 'The name cannot contains only spaces", ['name'])
def _check_empty_string(self, cr, uid, ids, context=None) : (old API way)
    project = self.browse(cr,uid, ids, context=context)
    return not project.name.isspace()

for v8 you can write constraint like to validate the space,

	@api.constrains('name')
def check_name(self):
if self.name.isspace():
raise ValidationError("Name can not be Empty")

name = fields.Char('Name', required=True)
