Bug fixes:

Other changes:

3.13.0 (2021-07-21)

Features:

Deprecations:

  • The use of missing/default field parameters is deprecated and will be removed in marshmallow 4. load_default/dump_default should be used instead.

3.12.2 (2021-07-06)

Bug fixes:

  • Don't expose Fields as Schema attributes. This reverts a change introduced in 3.12.0 that causes issues when field names conflict with Schema attributes or methods. Fieldss are still accessible on a

    Schema instance through the fields attribute. (:pr:`1843`)

3.12.1 (2021-05-10)

Bug fixes:

  • Fix bug that raised an AttributeError when instantiating a Schema with a field named parent (:issue:`1808`). Thanks :user:`flying-sheep` for reporting and helping with the fix.

Features:

Other changes:

  • Improve types in marshmallow.validate (:pr:`1786`).
  • Make marshmallow.validate.Validator an abstract base class (:pr:`1786`).

Bug fixes:

  • Cast to mapping type in Mapping.serialize and Mapping.deserialize (:pr:`1685`).
  • Fix bug letting Dict pass invalid dict on deserialization when no key or value Field is specified (:pr:`1685`).

Features:

3.5.2 (2020-04-30)

Bug fixes:

3.5.1 (2020-03-05)

Bug fixes:

  • Includes bug fix from 2.21.0.

3.5.0 (2020-02-19)

Bug fixes:

  • Fix list of nullable nested fields List(Nested(Field, allow_none=True) (:issue:`1497`). Because this fix reverts an optimization introduced to speed-up serialization and deserialization of lists of nested fields, a negative impact on performance in this specific case is expected.

3.4.0 (2020-02-02)

Features:

Bug fixes:

Other changes:

3.3.0 (2019-12-05)

Features:

  • fields.Nested may take a callable that returns a schema instance. Use this to resolve order-of-declaration issues when schemas nest each other (:issue:`1146`).
# <3.3
class AlbumSchema(Schema):
    title = fields.Str()
    artist = fields.Nested("ArtistSchema", only=("name",))


class ArtistSchema(Schema):
    name = fields.Str()
    albums = fields.List(fields.Nested(AlbumSchema))


# >=3.3
class AlbumSchema(Schema):
    title = fields.Str()
    artist = fields.Nested(lambda: ArtistSchema(only=("name",)))


class ArtistSchema(Schema):
    name = fields.Str()
    albums = fields.List(fields.Nested(AlbumSchema))

Deprecations:

  • Passing the string "self" to fields.Nested is deprecated. Use a callable instead.
from marshmallow import Schema, fields


# <3.3
class PersonSchema(Schema):
    partner = fields.Nested("self", exclude=("partner",))
    friends = fields.List(fields.Nested("self"))


# >=3.3
class PersonSchema(Schema):
    partner = fields.Nested(lambda: PersonSchema(exclude=("partner")))
    friends = fields.List(fields.Nested(lambda: PersonSchema()))

  • Restore inheritance hierarchy of Number fields (:pr:`1403`). fields.Integer and fields.Decimal inherit from fields.Number.
  • Fix bug that raised an uncaught error when a nested schema instance had an unpickleable object in its context (:issue:`1404`). Thanks :user:`metheoryt` for reporting.

  • Backwards-incompatible: DateTime does not affect timezone information on serialization and deserialization (:issue:`1234`, :pr:`1278`).
  • Add NaiveDateTime and AwareDateTime to enforce timezone awareness (:issue:`1234`, :pr:`1287`).
  • Backwards-incompatible: List does not wrap single values in a list on serialization (:pr:`1307`).

  • Improve error messages for validate.Range.
  • Use raise from error for better stack traces (:pr:`1254`). Thanks :user:`fuhrysteve`.
  • python-dateutil is no longer used. This resolves the inconsistent behavior based on the presence of python-dateutil (:issue:`497`, :issue:`1234`).

Bug fixes:

  • Fix method resolution for __init__ method of fields.Email and fields.URL (:issue:`1268`). Thanks :user:`dursk` for the catch and patch.
  • Includes bug fixes from 2.19.4 and 2.19.5.

  • Switch to Azure Pipelines for CI (:issue:`1261`).

3.0.0rc7 (2019-06-15)

Features:

  • Backwards-incompatible: many is passed as a keyword argument to methods decorated with pre_load, post_load, pre_dump, post_dump, and validates_schema. partial is passed as a keyword argument to methods decorated with pre_load, post_load and validates_schema. **kwargs should be added to all decorated methods.
  • Add min_inclusive and max_exclusive parameters to validate.Range (:issue:`1221`). Thanks :user:`kdop` for the PR.

Bug fixes:

Other changes:

  • Add marshmallow.__version_info__ (:pr:`1074`).
  • Remove the marshmallow.marshalling internal module (:pr:`1070`).
  • A ValueError is raised when the missing parameter is passed for required fields (:issue:`1040`).
  • Extra keyword arguments passed to ValidationError in validators are no longer passed to the final ValidationError raised upon validation completion (:issue:`996`).

3.0.0rc1 (2018-11-29)

Features:

  • Backwards-incompatible: Rework ValidationError API. It now expects a single field name, and error structures are merged in the final ValidationError raised when validation completes. This allows schema-level validators to raise errors for individual fields (:issue:`441`). Thanks :user:`maximkulkin` for writing the original merge_errors implementation in :pr:`442` and thanks :user:`lafrech` for completing the implementation in :pr:`1026`.

Bug fixes:

3.0.0b20 (2018-11-01)

Bug fixes:

  • Includes bug fixes from 2.16.2 and 2.16.3.

3.0.0b19 (2018-10-24)

Features:

  • Support partial loading of nested fields (:pr:`438`). Thanks :user:`arbor-dwatson` for the PR. Note: Subclasses of fields.Nested now take an additional partial parameter in the _deserialize method.

Bug fixes:

  • Restore Schema.TYPE_MAPPING, which was removed in 3.0.0b17 (:issue:`1012`).

Other changes:

  • Backwards-incompatible: _serialize and _deserialize methods of

all fields.Field subclasses must accept **kwargs (:pr:`1007`).

3.0.0b18 (2018-10-15)

Bug fixes:

Deprecations/Removals:

  • prefix parameter or Schema class is removed (:issue:`991`). The same can be achieved using a @post_dump method.

3.0.0b17 (2018-10-13)

Features:

  • Add format option to Date field (:pr:`869`).
  • Backwards-incompatible: Rename DateTime's dateformat Meta option to datetimeformat. dateformat now applies to Date (:pr:`869`). Thanks :user:`knagra` for implementing these changes.

  • Backwards-incompatible: Raise ValueError on Schema instantiation in case of attribute or data_key collision (:pr:`992`).

Bug fixes:

  • Fix inconsistencies in field inference by refactoring the inference feature into a dedicated field (:issue:`809`). Thanks :user:`taion` for the PR.
  • When unknown is not passed to Nested, default to nested Schema unknown meta option rather than RAISE (:pr:`963`). Thanks :user:`vgavro` for the PR.
  • Fix loading behavior of fields.Pluck (:pr:`990`).

3.0.0b16 (2018-09-20)

Bug fixes:

3.0.0b15 (2018-09-18)

Bug fixes:

  • Raise ValidationError instead of TypeError when non-iterable types are validated with many=True (:issue:`851`).
  • many=True no longer iterates over str and collections.abc.Mapping objects and instead raises a ValidationError with {'_schema': ['Invalid input type.']} (:issue:`930`).
  • Return [] as ValidationError.valid_data instead of {} when many=True (:issue:`907`).

Thanks :user:`tuukkamustonen` for implementing these changes.

3.0.0b14 (2018-09-15)

Features:

  • Add fields.Pluck for serializing a single field from a nested object (:issue:`800`). Thanks :user:`timc13` for the feedback and :user:`deckar01` for the implementation.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Passing a string argument as only to fields.Nested is no longer supported. Use fields.Pluck instead (:issue:`800`).
  • Raise a StringNotCollectionError if only or exclude is passed as a string to fields.Nested (:pr:`931`).
  • Backwards-incompatible: Float takes an allow_nan parameter to explicitly allow serializing and deserializing special values (nan, inf and -inf). allow_nan defaults to False.

Other changes:

  • Backwards-incompatible: Nested field now defaults to unknown=RAISE instead of EXCLUDE. This harmonizes behavior with Schema that already defaults to RAISE (:issue:`908`). Thanks :user:`tuukkamustonen`.
  • Tested against Python 3.7.

3.0.0b13 (2018-08-04)

Bug fixes:

  • Errors reported by a schema-level validator for a field in a Nested field are stored under corresponding field name, not _schema key (:pr:`862`).
  • Includes bug fix from 2.15.4.

Other changes:

  • Backwards-incompatible: The unknown option now defaults to RAISE (#524 (comment), :issue:`851`).
  • Backwards-incompatible: When a schema error is raised with a dict as payload, the dict overwrites any existing error list. Before this change, it would be appended to the list.
  • Raise a StringNotCollectionError if only or exclude is passed as a string (:issue:`316`). Thanks :user:`paulocheque` for reporting.

3.0.0b12 (2018-07-04)

Features:

Warning

The default for unknown will be changed to RAISE in the next release.

Other changes:

Deprecations/Removals:

  • ValidationError.fields is removed (:issue:`840`). Access field instances from Schema.fields.

Bug fixes:

  • Includes the bugfix from 2.15.1.

3.0.0b8 (2018-03-24)

Features:

  • Backwards-incompatible: Add data_key parameter to fields for specifying the key in the input and output data dict. This parameter replaces both load_from and dump_to (:issue:`717`). Thanks :user:`lafrech`.
  • Backwards-incompatible: When pass_original=True is passed to one of the decorators and a collection is being (de)serialized, the original_data argument will be a single object unless pass_many=True is also passed to the decorator (:issue:`315`, :issue:`743`). Thanks :user:`stj` for the PR.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Don't recursively check nested required fields when the Nested field's key is missing (:issue:`319`). This reverts :pr:`235`. Thanks :user:`chekunkov` reporting and thanks :user:`lafrech` for the PR.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Change error message collection for Dict field (:issue:`730`). Note: this is backwards-incompatible with previous 3.0.0bX versions. Thanks :user:`shabble` for the report and thanks :user:`lafrech` for the PR.

3.0.0b7 (2018-02-03)

Features:

  • Backwards-incompatible: Schemas are always strict (:issue:`377`). The strict parameter is removed.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Schema().load and Schema().dump return data instead of a (data, errors) tuple (:issue:`598`).
  • Backwards-incomaptible: Schema().load(None) raises a ValidationError (:issue:`511`).

See :ref:`upgrading_3_0` for a guide on updating your code.

Thanks :user:`lafrech` for implementing these changes. Special thanks to :user:`MichalKononenko`, :user:`douglas-treadwell`, and :user:`maximkulkin` for the discussions on these changes.

Other changes:

Support:

3.0.0b6 (2018-01-02)

Bug fixes:

  • Fixes ValidationError.valid_data when a nested field contains errors (:issue:`710`). This bug was introduced in 3.0.0b3. Thanks :user:`lafrech`.

Other changes:

  • Backwards-incompatible: Email and URL fields don't validate on serialization (:issue:`608`). This makes them more consistent with the other fields and improves serialization performance. Thanks again :user:`lafrech`.
  • validate.URL requires square brackets around IPv6 URLs (:issue:`707`). Thanks :user:`harlov`.

3.0.0b5 (2017-12-30)

Features:

  • Add support for structured dictionaries by providing values and keys arguments to the Dict field's constructor. This mirrors the List field's ability to validate its items (:issue:`483`). Thanks :user:`deckar01`.

Features:

  • Add support for millisecond, minute, hour, and week precisions to fields.TimeDelta (:issue:`537`). Thanks :user:`Fedalto` for the suggestion and the PR.

Support:

3.0.0b2 (2017-03-19)

Features:

  • Add truthy and falsy params to fields.Boolean (:issue:`580`). Thanks :user:`zwack` for the PR. Note: This is potentially a breaking change if your code passes the default parameter positionally. Pass default as a keyword argument instead, e.g. fields.Boolean(default=True).

Other changes:

Bug fixes:

  • Includes bug fixes from release 2.13.4.

3.0.0b1 (2017-03-10)

Features:

Other changes:

  • Includes changes from release 2.13.2.

3.0.0a1 (2017-02-26)

Features:

  • dump_only and load_only for Function and Method are set based on serialize and deserialize arguments (:issue:`328`).

Other changes:

  • Backwards-incompatible: fields.Method and fields.Function no longer swallow AttributeErrors (:issue:`395`). Thanks :user:`bereal` for the suggestion.
  • Backwards-incompatible: validators.Length is no longer a subclass of validators.Range (:issue:`458`). Thanks :user:`deckar01` for the catch and patch.
  • Backwards-incompatible: utils.get_func_args no longer returns bound arguments. This is consistent with the behavior of inspect.signature. This change prevents a DeprecationWarning on Python 3.5 (:issue:`415`, :issue:`479`). Thanks :user:`deckar01` for the PR.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Change the signature of utils.get_value and Schema.get_attribute for consistency with Python builtins (e.g. getattr) (:issue:`341`). Thanks :user:`stas` for reporting and thanks :user:`deckar01` for the PR.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Don't unconditionally call callable attributes (:issue:`430`, reverts :issue:`242`). Thanks :user:`mirko` for the suggestion.
  • Drop support for Python 2.6 and 3.3.

Deprecation/Removals:

  • Remove __error_handler__, __accessor__, @Schema.error_handler, and @Schema.accessor. Override Schema.handle_error and Schema.get_attribute instead.
  • Remove func parameter of fields.Function. Remove method_name parameter of fields.Method (issue:325). Use the serialize parameter instead.
  • Remove extra parameter from Schema. Use a @post_dump method to add additional data.

Bug fixes:

  • make_object is only called after all validators and postprocessors have finished (:issue:`253`). Thanks :user:`sunsongxp` for reporting.
  • If an invalid type is passed to Schema and strict=False, store a _schema error in the errors dict rather than raise an exception (:issue:`261`). Thanks :user:`density` for reporting.

Other changes:

Changes from 2.0.0b3:

2.0.0b3 (2015-06-14)

Features:

  • Add marshmallow.validates_schema decorator for defining schema-level validators (:issue:`116`).
  • Add marshmallow.validates decorator for defining field validators as Schema methods (:issue:`116`). Thanks :user:`philtay`.
  • Performance improvements.
  • Defining __marshallable__ on complex objects is no longer necessary.
  • Add fields.Constant. Thanks :user:`kevinastone`.

Deprecation/Removals:

  • Remove skip_missing class Meta option. By default, missing inputs are excluded from serialized output (:issue:`211`).
  • Remove optional context parameter that gets passed to methods for Method fields.
  • Schema.validator is deprecated. Use marshmallow.validates_schema instead.
  • utils.get_func_name is removed. Use utils.get_callable_name instead.

Bug fixes:

Other changes:

  • Remove unnecessary call to utils.get_value for Function and Method fields (:issue:`208`). Thanks :user:`jmcarp`.
  • Serializing a collection without passing many=True will not result in an error. Be very careful to pass the many argument when necessary.

Support:

  • Documentation: Update Flask and Peewee examples. Update Quickstart.

Changes from 2.0.0b2:

2.0.0b2 (2015-05-03)

Features:

  • Add useful __repr__ methods to validators (:issue:`204`). Thanks :user:`philtay`.
  • Backwards-incompatible: By default, NaN, Infinity, and -Infinity are invalid values for fields.Decimal. Pass allow_nan=True to allow these values. Thanks :user:`philtay`.

Changes from 2.0.0b1:

  • Fix serialization of None for Time, TimeDelta, and Date fields (a regression introduced in 2.0.0a1).

Includes bug fixes from 1.2.6.

2.0.0b1 (2015-04-26)

Features:

  • Errored fields will not appear in (de)serialized output dictionaries (:issue:`153`, :issue:`202`).
  • Instantiate OPTIONS_CLASS in SchemaMeta. This makes Schema.opts available in metaclass methods. It also causes validation to occur earlier (upon Schema class declaration rather than instantiation).
  • Add SchemaMeta.get_declared_fields class method to support adding additional declared fields.

Deprecation/Removals:

  • Remove allow_null parameter of fields.Nested (:issue:`203`).

Changes from 2.0.0a1:

  • Fix serialization of None for fields.Email.

2.0.0a1 (2015-04-25)

Features:

  • Backwards-incompatible: When many=True, the errors dictionary returned by dump and load will be keyed on the indices of invalid items in the (de)serialized collection (:issue:`75`). Add index_errors=False on a Schema's class Meta options to disable this behavior.
  • Backwards-incompatible: By default, fields will raise a ValidationError if the input is None. The allow_none parameter can override this behavior.
  • Backwards-incompatible: A Field's default parameter is only used if explicitly set and the field's value is missing in the input to Schema.dump. If not set, the key will not be present in the serialized output for missing values . This is the behavior for all fields. fields.Str no longer defaults to '', fields.Int no longer defaults to 0, etc. (:issue:`199`). Thanks :user:`jmcarp` for the feedback.
  • In strict mode, a ValidationError is raised. Error messages are accessed via the ValidationError's messages attribute (:issue:`128`).
  • Add allow_none parameter to fields.Field. If False (the default), validation fails when the field's value is None (:issue:`76`, :issue:`111`). If allow_none is True, None is considered valid and will deserialize to None.
  • Schema-level validators can store error messages for multiple fields (:issue:`118`). Thanks :user:`ksesong` for the suggestion.
  • Add pre_load, post_load, pre_dump, and post_dump Schema method decorators for defining pre- and post- processing routines (:issue:`153`, :issue:`179`). Thanks :user:`davidism`, :user:`taion`, and :user:`jmcarp` for the suggestions and feedback. Thanks :user:`taion` for the implementation.
  • Error message for required validation is configurable. (:issue:`78`). Thanks :user:`svenstaro` for the suggestion. Thanks :user:`0xDCA` for the implementation.
  • Add load_from parameter to fields (:issue:`125`). Thanks :user:`hakjoon`.
  • Add load_only and dump_only parameters to fields (:issue:`61`, :issue:`87`). Thanks :user:`philtay`.
  • Add missing parameter to fields (:issue:`115`). Thanks :user:`philtay`.
  • Schema validators can take an optional raw_data argument which contains raw input data, incl. data not specified in the schema (:issue:`127`). Thanks :user:`ryanlowe0`.
  • Add validate.OneOf (:issue:`135`) and validate.ContainsOnly (:issue:`149`) validators. Thanks :user:`philtay`.
  • Error messages for validators can be interpolated with {input} and other values (depending on the validator).
  • fields.TimeDelta always serializes to an integer value in order to avoid rounding errors (:issue:`105`). Thanks :user:`philtay`.
  • Add include class Meta option to support field names which are Python keywords (:issue:`139`). Thanks :user:`nickretallack` for the suggestion.
  • exclude parameter is respected when used together with only parameter (:issue:`165`). Thanks :user:`lustdante` for the catch and patch.
  • fields.List works as expected with generators and sets (:issue:`185`). Thanks :user:`sergey-aganezov-jr`.

Deprecation/Removals:

  • MarshallingError and UnmarshallingError error are deprecated in favor of a single ValidationError (:issue:`160`).
  • context argument passed to Method fields is deprecated. Use self.context instead (:issue:`184`).
  • Remove ForcedError.
  • Remove support for generator functions that yield validators (:issue:`74`). Plain generators of validators are still supported.
  • The Select/Enum field is deprecated in favor of using validate.OneOf validator (:issue:`135`).
  • Remove legacy, pre-1.0 API (Schema.data and Schema.errors properties) (:issue:`73`).
  • Remove null value.

Other changes:

  • Marshaller, Unmarshaller were moved to marshmallow.marshalling. These should be considered private API (:issue:`129`).
  • Make allow_null=True the default for Nested fields. This will make None serialize to None rather than a dictionary with empty values (:issue:`132`). Thanks :user:`nickrellack` for the suggestion.

1.2.6 (2015-05-03)

Bug fixes:

  • Fix validation error message for fields.Decimal.
  • Allow error message for fields.Boolean to be customized with the error parameter (like other fields).

  • Convert validators in marshmallow.validate into class-based callables to make them easier to use when declaring fields (:issue:`85`).
  • Add Decimal field which is safe to use when dealing with precise numbers (:issue:`86`).

Thanks :user:`philtay` for these contributions.

Bug fixes:

  • Date fields correctly deserializes to a datetime.date object when python-dateutil is not installed (:issue:`79`). Thanks :user:`malexer` for the catch and patch.
  • Fix bug that raised an AttributeError when using a class-based validator.
  • Fix as_string behavior of Number fields when serializing to default value.
  • Deserializing None or the empty string with either a DateTime, Date, Time or TimeDelta results in the correct unmarshalling errors (:issue:`96`). Thanks :user:`svenstaro` for reporting and helping with this.
  • Fix error handling when deserializing invalid UUIDs (:issue:`106`). Thanks :user:`vesauimonen` for the catch and patch.
  • Schema.loads correctly defaults to use the value of self.many rather than defaulting to False (:issue:`108`). Thanks :user:`davidism` for the catch and patch.
  • Validators, data handlers, and preprocessors are no longer shared between schema subclasses (:issue:`88`). Thanks :user:`amikholap` for reporting.
  • Fix error handling when passing a dict or list to a ValidationError (:issue:`110`). Thanks :user:`ksesong` for reporting.

Deprecation:

  • The validator functions in the validate module are deprecated in favor of the class-based validators (:issue:`85`).
  • The Arbitrary, Price, and Fixed fields are deprecated in favor of the Decimal field (:issue:`86`).

Support:

1.1.0 (2014-12-02)

  • Add several validation functions to the validate module. Thanks :user:`philtay`.
  • Store field name and instance on exceptions raised in strict mode.

Bug fixes:

  • Fix serializing dictionaries when field names are methods of dict (e.g. "items"). Thanks :user:`rozenm` for reporting.
  • If a Nested field is passed many=True, None serializes to an empty list. Thanks :user:`nickretallack` for reporting.
  • Fix behavior of many argument passed to dump and load. Thanks :user:`svenstaro` for reporting and helping with this.
  • Fix skip_missing behavior for String and List fields. Thanks :user:`malexer` for reporting.

  • URL and Email fields are validated upon serialization.
  • dump and load can receive the many argument.
  • Move a number of utility functions from fields.py to utils.py.
  • More useful repr for Field classes.
  • If a field's default is fields.missing and its serialized value is None, it will not be included in the final serialized result.
  • Schema.dumps no longer coerces its result to a binary string on Python 3.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Schema output is no longer an OrderedDict by default. If you want ordered field output, you must explicitly set the ordered option to True.
  • Backwards-incompatible: error parameter of the Field constructor is deprecated. Raise a ValidationError instead.
  • Expanded test coverage.
  • Updated docs.

1.0.0-a (2014-10-19)

Major reworking and simplification of the public API, centered around support for deserialization, improved validation, and a less stateful Schema class.

  • Rename Serializer to Schema.
  • Support for deserialization.
  • Use the Schema.dump and Schema.load methods for serializing and deserializing, respectively.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Remove Serializer.json and Serializer.to_json. Use Schema.dumps instead.
  • Reworked fields interface.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Field classes implement _serialize and _deserialize methods. serialize and deserialize comprise the public API for a Field. Field.format and Field.output have been removed.
  • Add exceptions.ForcedError which allows errors to be raised during serialization (instead of storing errors in the errors dict).
  • Backwards-incompatible: DateTime field serializes to ISO8601 format by default (instead of RFC822).
  • Backwards-incompatible: Remove Serializer.factory method. It is no longer necessary with the dump method.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Allow nesting a serializer within itself recursively. Use exclude or only to prevent infinite recursion.
  • Backwards-incompatible: Multiple errors can be stored for a single field. The errors dictionary returned by load and dump have lists of error messages keyed by field name.
  • Remove validated decorator. Validation occurs within Field methods.
  • Function field raises a ValueError if an uncallable object is passed to its constructor.
  • Nested fields inherit context from their parent.
  • Add Schema.preprocessor and Schema.validator decorators for registering preprocessing and schema-level validation functions respectively.
  • Custom error messages can be specified by raising a ValidationError within a validation function.
  • Extra keyword arguments passed to a Field are stored as metadata.
  • Fix ordering of field output.
  • Fix behavior of the required parameter on Nested fields.
  • Fix serializing keyed tuple types (e.g. namedtuple) with class Meta options.
  • Fix default value for Fixed and Price fields.
  • Fix serialization of binary strings.
  • Schemas can inherit fields from non-Schema base classes (e.g. mixins). Also, fields are inherited according to the MRO (rather than recursing over base classes). Thanks :user:`jmcarp`.
  • Add Str, Bool, and Int field class aliases.

0.7.0 (2014-06-22)

  • Add Serializer.error_handler decorator that registers a custom error handler.
  • Add Serializer.data_handler decorator that registers data post-processing callbacks.
  • Backwards-incompatible: process_data method is deprecated. Use the data_handler decorator instead.
  • Fix bug that raised error when passing extra data together with many=True. Thanks :user:`buttsicles` for reporting.
  • If required=True validation is violated for a given Field, it will raise an error message that is different from the message specified by the error argument. Thanks :user:`asteinlein`.
  • More generic error message raised when required field is missing.
  • validated decorator should only wrap a Field class's output method.

0.6.0 (2014-06-03)

  • Fix bug in serializing keyed tuple types, e.g. namedtuple and KeyedTuple.
  • Nested field can load a serializer by its class name as a string. This makes it easier to implement 2-way nesting.
  • Make Serializer.data override-able.

0.5.5 (2014-05-02)

  • Add Serializer.factory for creating a factory function that returns a Serializer instance.
  • MarshallingError stores its underlying exception as an instance variable. This is useful for inspecting errors.
  • fields.Select is aliased to fields.Enum.
  • Add fields.__all__ and marshmallow.__all__ so that the modules can be more easily extended.
  • Expose Serializer.OPTIONS_CLASS as a class variable so that options defaults can be overridden.
  • Add Serializer.process_data hook that allows subclasses to manipulate the final output data.

0.5.4 (2014-04-17)

  • Add json_module class Meta option.
  • Add required option to fields . Thanks :user:`DeaconDesperado`.
  • Tested on Python 3.4 and PyPy.

0.5.3 (2014-03-02)

  • Fix Integer field default. It is now 0 instead of 0.0. Thanks :user:`kalasjocke`.
  • Add context param to Serializer. Allows accessing arbitrary objects in Function and Method fields.
  • Function and Method fields raise MarshallingError if their argument is uncallable.

0.5.2 (2014-02-10)

  • Enable custom field validation via the validate parameter.
  • Add utils.from_rfc for parsing RFC datestring to Python datetime object.

0.5.1 (2014-02-02)

  • Avoid unnecessary attribute access in utils.to_marshallable_type for improved performance.
  • Fix RFC822 formatting for localized datetimes.

  • Add fields.Select. Thanks :user:`ecarreras`.
  • Support nesting a Serializer within itself by passing "self" into fields.Nested (only up to depth=1).
  • Backwards-incompatible: No implicit serializing of collections. Must set many=True if serializing to a list. This ensures that marshmallow handles singular objects correctly, even if they are iterable.
  • If Nested field only parameter is a field name, only return a single value for the nested object (instead of a dict) or a flat list of values.
  • Improved performance and stability.

0.4.1 (2013-12-01)

  • An object's __marshallable__ method, if defined, takes precedence over __getitem__.
  • Generator expressions can be passed to a serializer.
  • Better support for serializing list-like collections (e.g. ORM querysets).
  • Other minor bugfixes.

0.4.0 (2013-11-24)

  • Add additional class Meta option.
  • Add dateformat class Meta option.
  • Support for serializing UUID, date, time, and timedelta objects.
