pydantic_core.core_schema

This module contains definitions to build schemas which pydantic_core can validate and serialize.

WhenUsed module-attribute

WhenUsed = Literal[
    "always", "unless-none", "json", "json-unless-none"
]

Values have the following meanings:

  • 'always' means always use
  • 'unless-none' means use unless the value is None
  • 'json' means use when serializing to JSON
  • 'json-unless-none' means use when serializing to JSON and the value is not None

CoreConfig

Bases: TypedDict

Base class for schema configuration options.

Attributes:

Name Type Description
title str

The name of the configuration.

strict bool

Whether the configuration should strictly adhere to specified rules.

extra_fields_behavior ExtraBehavior

The behavior for handling extra fields.

typed_dict_total bool

Whether the TypedDict should be considered total. Default is True.

from_attributes bool

Whether to use attributes for models, dataclasses, and tagged union keys.

loc_by_alias bool

Whether to use the used alias (or first alias for "field required" errors) instead of field_names to construct error locs. Default is True.

revalidate_instances Literal['always', 'never', 'subclass-instances']

Whether instances of models and dataclasses should re-validate. Default is 'never'.

validate_default bool

Whether to validate default values during validation. Default is False.

populate_by_name bool

Whether an aliased field may be populated by its name as given by the model attribute, as well as the alias. (Replaces 'allow_population_by_field_name' in Pydantic v1.) Default is False.

str_max_length int

The maximum length for string fields.

str_min_length int

The minimum length for string fields.

str_strip_whitespace bool

Whether to strip whitespace from string fields.

str_to_lower bool

Whether to convert string fields to lowercase.

str_to_upper bool

Whether to convert string fields to uppercase.

allow_inf_nan bool

Whether to allow infinity and NaN values for float fields. Default is True.

ser_json_timedelta Literal['iso8601', 'float']

The serialization option for timedelta values. Default is 'iso8601'.

ser_json_bytes Literal['utf8', 'base64', 'hex']

The serialization option for bytes values. Default is 'utf8'.

ser_json_inf_nan Literal['null', 'constants', 'strings']

The serialization option for infinity and NaN values in float fields. Default is 'null'.

val_json_bytes Literal['utf8', 'base64', 'hex']

The validation option for bytes values, complementing ser_json_bytes. Default is 'utf8'.

hide_input_in_errors bool

Whether to hide input data from ValidationError representation.

validation_error_cause bool

Whether to add user-python excs to the cause of a ValidationError. Requires exceptiongroup backport pre Python 3.11.

coerce_numbers_to_str bool

Whether to enable coercion of any Number type to str (not applicable in strict mode).

regex_engine Literal['rust-regex', 'python-re']

The regex engine to use for regex pattern validation. Default is 'rust-regex'. See StringSchema.

cache_strings Union[bool, Literal['all', 'keys', 'none']]

Whether to cache strings. Default is True, True or 'all' is required to cache strings during general validation since validators don't know if they're in a key or a value.

SerializationInfo

Bases: Protocol

context property

context: Any | None

Current serialization context.

ValidationInfo

Bases: Protocol

Argument passed to validation functions.

context property

context: Any | None

Current validation context.

config property

config: CoreConfig | None

mode property

mode: Literal['python', 'json']

The type of input data we are currently validating

data property

data: Dict[str, Any]

The data being validated for this model.

field_name property

field_name: str | None

The name of the current field being validated if this validator is attached to a model field.

from pydantic_core import SchemaValidator, core_schema

def fn(v: bytes, info: core_schema.ValidationInfo) -> str:
    assert info.data is not None
    assert info.field_name is not None
    return v.decode() + 'world'

func_schema = core_schema.with_info_before_validator_function(
    function=fn, schema=core_schema.str_schema(), field_name='a'
)
schema = core_schema.typed_dict_schema({'a': core_schema.typed_dict_field(func_schema)})

v = SchemaValidator(schema)
assert v.validate_python({'a': b'hello '}) == {'a': 'hello world'}

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default

Returns a schema for a dataclass. As with ModelSchema, this schema can only be used as a field within another schema, not as the root type.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
cls Type[Any]

The dataclass type, used to perform subclass checks

required
schema CoreSchema

The schema to use for the dataclass fields

required
fields List[str]

Fields of the dataclass, this is used in serialization and in validation during re-validation and while validating assignment

required
cls_name str | None

The name to use in error locs, etc; this is useful for generics (default: cls.__name__)

None
post_init bool | None

Whether to call __post_init__ after validation

None
revalidate_instances Literal['always', 'never', 'subclass-instances'] | None

whether instances of models and dataclasses (including subclass instances) should re-validate defaults to config.revalidate_instances, else 'never'

None
strict bool | None

Whether to require an exact instance of cls

None
ref str | None

optional unique identifier of the schema, used to reference the schema in other places

None
metadata Dict[str, Any] | None

Any other information you want to include with the schema, not used by pydantic-core

None
serialization SerSchema | None

Custom serialization schema

None
frozen bool | None

Whether the dataclass is frozen

None
slots bool | None

Whether slots=True on the dataclass, means each field is assigned independently, rather than simply setting __dict__, default false

None
