Beerializer¶
Beerializer provides easy interface for transformation and validation of Python objects into JSON-like dicts. It’s easy and fun! See for yourself:
class Simpson(object):
def __init__(self):
self.first_name = ""
self.last_name = ""
def __str__(self):
return self.first_name + " " + self.last_name
class SimpsonSerializer(Serializer):
class Meta:
model = Simpson
first_name = fields.StringField(name="firstName")
last_name = fields.StringField(name="lastName")
When you get a payload that requires one of these serializers, call
Serializer.load(data):
>>> data = {"firstName": "Homer", "lastName": "Simpson"}
>>> s = SimpsonSerializer.load(data)
>>> s
<class '__main__.Simpson'>
>>> str(s)
'Homer Simpson'
To go the other way. Pass the object you want to transfer into the
dump method:
>>> homer = Simpson()
>>> homer.first_name = "Homer"
>>> homer.last_name = "Simpson"
>>> SimpsonSerializer.dump(homer)
{'firstName': 'Homer', 'lastName': 'Simpson'}
