Experimental

Pipeline API

Experimental pipeline API functionality. Be careful with this API, it’s subject to change.

_Pipeline

Bases: Generic[_InT, _OutT]

Abstract representation of a chain of validation, transformation, and parsing steps.

Methods

transform

def transform(func: Callable[[_OutT], _NewOutT]) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutT]

Transform the output of the previous step.

If used as the first step in a pipeline, the type of the field is used. That is, the transformation is applied to after the value is parsed to the field’s type.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutT]

validate_as

def validate_as(tp: type[_NewOutT], strict: bool = ...) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutT]
def validate_as(tp: EllipsisType, strict: bool = ...) -> _Pipeline[_InT, Any]

Validate / parse the input into a new type.

If no type is provided, the type of the field is used.

Types are parsed in Pydantic’s lax mode by default, but you can enable strict mode by passing strict=True.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, Any]

validate_as_deferred

def validate_as_deferred(
    func: Callable[[], type[_NewOutT]],
) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutT]

Parse the input into a new type, deferring resolution of the type until the current class is fully defined.

This is useful when you need to reference the class in it’s own type annotations.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutT]

constrain

def constrain(constraint: annotated_types.Ge) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutGe]
def constrain(constraint: annotated_types.Gt) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutGt]
def constrain(constraint: annotated_types.Le) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutLe]
def constrain(constraint: annotated_types.Lt) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutLt]
def constrain(constraint: annotated_types.Len) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutLen]
def constrain(constraint: annotated_types.MultipleOf) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutT]
def constrain(constraint: annotated_types.Timezone) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutDatetime]
def constrain(constraint: annotated_types.Predicate) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]
def constrain(constraint: annotated_types.Interval) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutInterval]
def constrain(constraint: _Eq) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]
def constrain(constraint: _NotEq) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]
def constrain(constraint: _In) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]
def constrain(constraint: _NotIn) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]
def constrain(constraint: Pattern[str]) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutT]

Constrain a value to meet a certain condition.

We support most conditions from annotated_types, as well as regular expressions.

Most of the time you’ll be calling a shortcut method like gt, lt, len, etc so you don’t need to call this directly.

Returns

Any

predicate

def predicate(func: Callable[[_NewOutT], bool]) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutT]

Constrain a value to meet a certain predicate.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutT]

gt

def gt(gt: _NewOutGt) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutGt]

Constrain a value to be greater than a certain value.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutGt]

lt

def lt(lt: _NewOutLt) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutLt]

Constrain a value to be less than a certain value.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutLt]

ge

def ge(ge: _NewOutGe) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutGe]

Constrain a value to be greater than or equal to a certain value.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutGe]

le

def le(le: _NewOutLe) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutLe]

Constrain a value to be less than or equal to a certain value.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutLe]

len

def len(min_len: int, max_len: int | None = None) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutLen]

Constrain a value to have a certain length.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutLen]

multiple_of

def multiple_of(multiple_of: _NewOutDiv) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutDiv]
def multiple_of(multiple_of: _NewOutMod) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _NewOutMod]

Constrain a value to be a multiple of a certain number.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, Any]

eq

def eq(value: _OutT) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]

Constrain a value to be equal to a certain value.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]

not_eq

def not_eq(value: _OutT) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]

Constrain a value to not be equal to a certain value.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]

in_

def in_(values: Container[_OutT]) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]

Constrain a value to be in a certain set.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]

not_in

def not_in(values: Container[_OutT]) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]

Constrain a value to not be in a certain set.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _OutT]

otherwise

def otherwise(
    other: _Pipeline[_OtherIn, _OtherOut],
) -> _Pipeline[_InT | _OtherIn, _OutT | _OtherOut]

Combine two validation chains, returning the result of the first chain if it succeeds, and the second chain if it fails.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT | _OtherIn, _OutT | _OtherOut]

then

def then(other: _Pipeline[_OutT, _OtherOut]) -> _Pipeline[_InT, _OtherOut]

Pipe the result of one validation chain into another.

Returns

_Pipeline[_InT, _OtherOut]

Arguments schema API

Experimental module exposing a function to generate a core schema that validates callable arguments.

generate_arguments_schema

def generate_arguments_schema(
    func: Callable[..., Any],
    schema_type: Literal['arguments', 'arguments-v3'] = 'arguments-v3',
    parameters_callback: Callable[[int, str, Any], Literal['skip'] | None] | None = None,
    config: ConfigDict | None = None,
) -> CoreSchema

Generate the schema for the arguments of a function.

Returns

CoreSchema — The generated schema.

Parameters

func : Callable[…, Any]

The function to generate the schema for.

schema_type : Literal[‘arguments’, ‘arguments-v3’] Default: 'arguments-v3'

The type of schema to generate.

parameters_callback : Callable[[int, str, Any], Literal[‘skip’] | None] | None Default: None

A callable that will be invoked for each parameter. The callback should take three required arguments: the index, the name and the type annotation (or Parameter.empty if not annotated) of the parameter. The callback can optionally return 'skip', so that the parameter gets excluded from the resulting schema.

config : ConfigDict | None Default: None

The configuration to use.
