Pydantic 是一个使用类型提示简化数据验证的 Python 库。它确保数据完整性，并提供一种通过自动类型检查和验证创建数据模型的简单方法。
在软件应用程序中，可靠的数据验证对于防止错误、安全问题和不可预测的行为至关重要。
本指南提供了在 Python 项目中使用 Pydantic 的最佳实践，涵盖模型定义、数据验证、错误处理和性能优化。
要安装 Pydantic，请使用 Python 包安装程序 pip，并使用以下命令：
pip install pydantic
此命令安装 Pydantic 及其依赖项。
通过创建继承自 BaseModel 的类来创建 Pydantic 模型。使用Python类型注释来指定每个字段的类型：
from pydantic import BaseModel
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: str
Pydantic 支持各种字段类型，包括 int、str、float、bool、list 和 dict。您还可以定义嵌套模型和自定义类型：
from typing import List, Optional
from pydantic import BaseModel
class Address(BaseModel):
street: str
city: str
zip_code: Optional[str] = None
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: str
age: Optional[int] = None
addresses: List[Address]
定义 Pydantic 模型后，通过提供所需数据来创建实例。如果任何字段不满足指定要求，Pydantic 将验证数据并引发错误：
user = User(
id=1,
name="John Doe",
email="john.doe@example.com",
addresses=[{"street": "123 Main St", "city": "Anytown", "zip_code": "12345"}]
)
print(user)
# Output:
# id=1 name='John Doe' email='john.doe@example.com' age=None addresses=[Address(street='123 Main St', city='Anytown', zip_code='12345')]
Pydantic 模型使用 Python 类型注释来定义数据字段类型。
它们支持各种内置类型，包括：
示例：
from typing import List, Dict, Optional, Union
from pydantic import BaseModel
class Item(BaseModel):
name: str
price: float
tags: List[str]
metadata: Dict[str, Union[str, int, float]]
class Order(BaseModel):
order_id: int
items: List[Item]
discount: Optional[float] = None
除了内置类型之外，您还可以使用 Pydantic 的 conint、constr 和其他约束函数定义自定义类型。
这些允许您添加额外的验证规则，例如字符串的长度限制或整数的值范围。
示例：
from pydantic import BaseModel, conint, constr
class Product(BaseModel):
name: constr(min_length=2, max_length=50)
quantity: conint(gt=0, le=1000)
price: float
product = Product(name="Laptop", quantity=5, price=999.99)
默认情况下，Pydantic 模型中的字段是必需的，除非明确标记为可选。
如果模型实例化期间缺少必填字段，Pydantic 将引发 ValidationError。
示例：
from pydantic import BaseModel
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: str
user = User(id=1, name="John Doe")
# Output
# Field required [type=missing, input_value={'id': 1, 'name': 'John Doe'}, input_type=dict]
通过使用输入模块中的Optional并提供默认值，可以将字段设为可选。
示例：
from pydantic import BaseModel
from typing import Optional
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: Optional[str] = None
user = User(id=1, name="John Doe")
在此示例中，电子邮件是可选的，如果未提供，则默认为 None。
Pydantic 允许模型相互嵌套，从而实现复杂的数据结构。
嵌套模型被定义为其他模型的字段，确保多个级别的数据完整性和验证。
示例：
from pydantic import BaseModel
from typing import Optional, List
class Address(BaseModel):
street: str
city: str
zip_code: Optional[str] = None
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: str
addresses: List[Address]
user = User(
id=1,
name="John Doe",
email="john.doe@example.com",
addresses=[{"street": "123 Main St", "city": "Anytown"}]
)
使用嵌套模型时，重要的是：
Pydantic 包含一组内置验证器，可以自动处理常见的数据验证任务。
这些验证器包括：
这些验证器简化了确保模型内数据完整性和一致性的过程。
以下是一些演示内置验证器的示例：
来自 pydantic 导入 BaseModel、EmailStr、conint、constr
class User(BaseModel):
id: conint(gt=0) # id must be greater than 0
name: constr(min_length=2, max_length=50) # name must be between 2 and 50 characters
email: EmailStr # email must be a valid email address
age: conint(ge=18) # age must be 18 or older
user = User(id=1, name="John Doe", email="john.doe@example.com", age=25)
在此示例中，用户模型使用内置验证器来确保 id 大于 0，名称介于 2 到 50 个字符之间，电子邮件是有效的电子邮件地址，并且年龄为 18 岁或以上。
为了能够使用电子邮件验证器，您需要安装 pydantic 扩展：
pip install pydantic[email]
Pydantic allows you to define custom validators for more complex validation logic.
Custom validators are defined using the @field_validator decorator within your model class.
Example of a custom validator:
from pydantic import BaseModel, field_validator
class Product(BaseModel):
name: str
price: float
@field_validator('price')
def price_must_be_positive(cls, value):
if value <= 0:
raise ValueError('Price must be positive')
return value
product = Product(name="Laptop", price=999.99)
Here, the price_must_be_positive validator ensures that the price field is a positive number.
Custom validators are registered automatically when you define them within a model using the @field_validator decorator. Validators can be applied to individual fields or across multiple fields.
Example of registering a validator for multiple fields:
from pydantic import BaseModel, field_validator
class Person(BaseModel):
first_name: str
last_name: str
@field_validator('first_name', 'last_name')
def names_cannot_be_empty(cls, value):
if not value:
raise ValueError('Name fields cannot be empty')
return value
person = Person(first_name="John", last_name="Doe")
In this example, the names_cannot_be_empty validator ensures that both the first_name and last_name fields are not empty.
Pydantic models can be customized using an inner Config class.
This class allows you to set various configuration options that affect the model's behavior, such as validation rules, JSON serialization, and more.
Example of a Config class:
from pydantic import BaseModel
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: str
class Config:
str_strip_whitespace = True # Strip whitespace from strings
str_min_length = 1 # Minimum length for any string field
user = User(id=1, name=" John Doe ", email="john.doe@example.com")
print(user)
# Output:
# id=1 name='John Doe' email='john.doe@example.com'
In this example, the Config class is used to strip whitespace from string fields and enforce a minimum length of 1 for any string field.
Some common configuration options in Pydantic's Config class include:
When Pydantic finds data that doesn't conform to the model's schema, it raises a ValidationError.
This error provides detailed information about the issue, including the field name, the incorrect value, and a description of the problem.
Here's an example of how default error messages are structured:
from pydantic import BaseModel, ValidationError, EmailStr
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: EmailStr
try:
user = User(id='one', name='John Doe', email='invalid-email')
except ValidationError as e:
print(e.json())
# Output:
# [{"type":"int_parsing","loc":["id"],"msg":"Input should be a valid integer, unable to parse string as an integer","input":"one","url":"https://errors.pydantic.dev/2.8/v/int_parsing"},{"type":"value_error","loc":["email"],"msg":"value is not a valid email address: An email address must have an @-sign.","input":"invalid-email","ctx":{"reason":"An email address must have an @-sign."},"url":"https://errors.pydantic.dev/2.8/v/value_error"}]
In this example, the error message will indicate that id must be an integer and email must be a valid email address.
Pydantic allows you to customize error messages for specific fields by raising exceptions with custom messages in validators or by setting custom configurations.
Here’s an example of customizing error messages:
from pydantic import BaseModel, ValidationError, field_validator
class Product(BaseModel):
name: str
price: float
@field_validator('price')
def price_must_be_positive(cls, value):
if value <= 0:
raise ValueError('Price must be a positive number')
return value
try:
product = Product(name='Laptop', price=-1000)
except ValidationError as e:
print(e.json())
# Output:
# [{"type":"value_error","loc":["price"],"msg":"Value error, Price must be a positive number","input":-1000,"ctx":{"error":"Price must be a positive number"},"url":"https://errors.pydantic.dev/2.8/v/value_error"}]
In this example, the error message for price is customized to indicate that it must be a positive number.
Effective error reporting involves providing clear, concise, and actionable feedback to users or developers.
Here are some best practices:
Examples of best practices in error reporting:
from pydantic import BaseModel, ValidationError, EmailStr
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: EmailStr
def create_user(data):
try:
user = User(**data)
return user
except ValidationError as e:
logging.error("Validation error: %s", e.json())
return {"error": "Invalid data provided", "details": e.errors()}
user_data = {'id': 'one', 'name': 'John Doe', 'email': 'invalid-email'}
response = create_user(user_data)
print(response)
# Output:
# ERROR:root:Validation error: [{"type":"int_parsing","loc":["id"],"msg":"Input should be a valid integer, unable to parse string as an integer","input":"one","url":"https://errors.pydantic.dev/2.8/v/int_parsing"},{"type":"value_error","loc":["email"],"msg":"value is not a valid email address: An email address must have an @-sign.","input":"invalid-email","ctx":{"reason":"An email address must have an @-sign."},"url":"https://errors.pydantic.dev/2.8/v/value_error"}]
# {'error': 'Invalid data provided', 'details': [{'type': 'int_parsing', 'loc': ('id',), 'msg': 'Input should be a valid integer, unable to parse string as an integer', 'input': 'one', 'url': 'https://errors.pydantic.dev/2.8/v/int_parsing'}, {'type': 'value_error', 'loc': ('email',), 'msg': 'value is not a valid email address: An email address must have an @-sign.', 'input': 'invalid-email', 'ctx': {'reason': 'An email address must have an @-sign.'}}]}
In this example, validation errors are logged, and a user-friendly error message is returned, helping maintain application stability and providing useful feedback to the user.
Lazy initialization is a technique that postpones the creation of an object until it is needed.
In Pydantic, this can be useful for models with fields that are costly to compute or fetch. By delaying the initialization of these fields, you can reduce the initial load time and improve performance.
Example of lazy initialization:
from pydantic import BaseModel
from functools import lru_cache
class DataModel(BaseModel):
name: str
expensive_computation: str = None
@property
@lru_cache(maxsize=1)
def expensive_computation(self):
# Simulate an expensive computation
result = "Computed Value"
return result
data_model = DataModel(name="Test")
print(data_model.expensive_computation)
In this example, the expensive_computation field is computed only when accessed for the first time, reducing unnecessary computations during model initialization.
Pydantic models automatically validate data during initialization.
However, if you know that certain data has already been validated or if validation is not necessary in some contexts, you can disable validation to improve performance.
This can be done using the model_construct method, which bypasses validation:
Example of avoiding redundant validation:
from pydantic import BaseModel
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: str
# Constructing a User instance without validation
data = {'id': 1, 'name': 'John Doe', 'email': 'john.doe@example.com'}
user = User.model_construct(**data)
In this example, User.model_construct is used to create a User instance without triggering validation, which can be useful in performance-critical sections of your code.
When dealing with large datasets or high-throughput systems, efficiently parsing raw data becomes critical.
Pydantic provides the model_validate_json method, which can be used to parse JSON or other serialized data formats directly into Pydantic models.
Example of efficient data parsing:
from pydantic import BaseModel
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: str
json_data = '{"id": 1, "name": "John Doe", "email": "john.doe@example.com"}'
user = User.model_validate_json(json_data)
print(user)
In this example, model_validate_json is used to parse JSON data into a User model directly, providing a more efficient way to handle serialized data.
Pydantic models can be configured to validate data only when necessary.
The validate_default and validate_assignment options in the Config class control when validation occurs, which can help improve performance:
Example configuration:
from pydantic import BaseModel
class User(BaseModel):
id: int
name: str
email: str
class Config:
validate_default = False # Only validate fields set during initialization
validate_assignment = True # Validate fields on assignment
user = User(id=1, name="John Doe", email="john.doe@example.com")
user.email = "new.email@example.com" # This assignment will trigger validation
In this example, validate_default is set to False to avoid unnecessary validation during initialization, and validate_assignment is set to True to ensure that fields are validated when they are updated.
Pydantic's BaseSettings class is designed for managing application settings, supporting environment variable loading and type validation.
This helps in configuring applications for different environments (e.g., development, testing, production).
Consider this .env file:
database_url=db secret_key=sk debug=False
Example of using BaseSettings:
from pydantic_settings import BaseSettings
class Settings(BaseSettings):
database_url: str
secret_key: str
debug: bool = False
class Config:
env_file = ".env"
settings = Settings()
print(settings.model_dump())
# Output:
# {'database_url': 'db', 'secret_key': 'sk', 'debug': False}
In this example, settings are loaded from environment variables, and the Config class specifies that variables can be loaded from a .env file.
For using BaseSettings you will need to install an additional package:
pip install pydantic-settings
Managing settings effectively involves a few best practices:
One common mistake when using Pydantic is misapplying type annotations, which can lead to validation errors or unexpected behavior.
Here are a few typical mistakes and their solutions:
Ignoring performance implications when using Pydantic can lead to slow applications, especially when dealing with large datasets or frequent model instantiations.
Here are some strategies to avoid performance bottlenecks:
