===============================
Desert: DRY deserialization
===============================




Desert generates serialization schemas for ``dataclasses`` and ``attrs`` classes. Writing
code that's DRY ("don't repeat yourself") helps avoid bugs and improve readability. Desert
helps you write code that's DRY.







Installation
============

::

    pip install desert

or with `Poetry`_

::

   poetry add desert


Usage
=========

..
    start-basic-usage

A simple example models two ``Person`` objects in a ``Car``.

.. code-block:: python



        from dataclasses import dataclass

        # Or using attrs
        # from attr import dataclass

        from typing import List

	import desert

        @dataclass
        class Person:
            name: str
            age: int

        @dataclass
        class Car:
            passengers: List[Person]

        # Load some simple data types.
        data = {'passengers': [{'name': 'Alice', 'age': 21}, {'name': 'Bob', 'age': 22}]}


        # Create a schema for the Car class.
        schema = desert.schema(Car)

        # Load the data.
        car = schema.load(data)
        assert car == Car(passengers=[Person(name='Alice', age=21), Person(name='Bob', age=22)])


..
    end-basic-usage

Documentation
=============


https://desert.readthedocs.io/


Limitations
============

String annotations and forward references inside of functions are not supported.





Acknowledgements

- This package began as an extension of marshmallow-dataclass_ to add support for attrs_.

-----------------------


Backward-incompatible Changes
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

- Update all project dependencies and fix all deprecated warnings. Python 3.6
  support was dropped to allow updating deprecated dependencies.
  `#161 <https://github.com/python-desert/desert/issues/161>`_


Changes
^^^^^^^

- It is now possible to use `type-variant generics`_ in your dataclasses, such as ``Sequence``
  or ``MutableSequence`` instead of ``List``, ``Mapping`` instead of ``Dict``, etc.

  This allows you to hide implementation details from users of your dataclasses. If a field
  in your dataclass works just as fine with a tuple as a list, you no longer need to force
  your users to pass in a ``list`` just to satisfy type checkers.

  For example, by using ``Mapping`` or ``MutableMapping``, users can pass ``OrderedDict`` to
  a ``Dict`` attribute without MyPy complaining.

  .. code-block:: python

      @dataclass
      class OldWay:
          str_list: List[str]
          num_map: Dict[str, float]


      # MyPy will reject this even though Marshmallow works just fine. If you use
      # type-variant generics, MyPy will accept this code.
      instance = OldClass([], collections.ChainMap(MY_DEFAULTS))


      @dataclass
      class NewWay:
          str_list: List[str]  # Type-invariants still work
          num_map: MutableMapping[str, float]  # Now generics do too
