Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Advanced RAG with guided generation
First, note the method prefix_allowed_tokens_fn. This method applies a Pydantic model to constrain/guide how the LLM generates tokens. Next, see how that constrain can be applied to txtai's LLM pipeline.

utype VS pydantic - a user suggested alternative
2 projects | 15 Feb 2024
utype is a concise alternative of pydantic with simplified parameters and usages, supporting both sync/async functions and generators parsing, and capable of using native logic operators to define logical types like AND/OR/NOT, also provides custom type parsing by register mechanism that supports libraries like pydantic, attrs and dataclasses
- Pydantic v2 ruined the elegance of Pydantic v1
-
Ask HN: Pydantic has too much deprecation. Why is it popular?
I like some of the changes from v1 to v2. But then you have something like this [0] removed from the library without proper documentation or replacement, resulting in ugly workarounds in the link that wont' work properly.
- OpenAI uses Pydantic for their ChatCompletions API

🍹GinAI - Cocktails mixed with generative AI
The easiest implementation I found was to use a PyDantic class for my target schema — and use that as a parameter for the method call to “ChatCompletion.create()”. Here’s a fragment of the GinAI Python classes used.

FastStream: Python's framework for Efficient Message Queue Handling
Also, FastStream uses Pydantic to parse input JSON-encoded data into Python objects, making it easy to work with structured data in your applications, so you can serialize your input messages just using type annotations.

Cannot get Langchain to work
Not sure if it is exactly related, but there is an open issue on Github for that exact message.

FastAPI 0.100.0:Release Notes
Well the performance increase is so huge because pydantic1 is really really slow. And for using rust, I'd have expected more tbh…
I've been benchmarking pydantic v2 against typedload (which I write) and despite the rust, it still manages to be slower than pure python in some benchmarks.
The ones on the website are still about comparing to v1 because v2 was not out yet at the time of the last release.
pydantic's author will refuse to benchmark any library that is faster (https://github.com/pydantic/pydantic/pull/3264 https://github.com/pydantic/pydantic/pull/1525 https://github.com/pydantic/pydantic/pull/1810) and keep boasting about amazing performances.
On pypy, v2 beta was really really really slow.

Writing Python like it’s Rust
I'd suggest you look at my cattrs (https://catt.rs) library as a good serde lookalike in Python (sum type support present and getting better), and to use attrs instead of dataclasses in general.

Starlite updates March '22 | 2.0 is coming
Pydantic is by far not the only library of its kind, with prominent members of the same class being attrs, cattrs or even plain dataclasses for some use cases.
-
Noob question on saving objects in YAML files
That being said, data serialization is a very common thing to do, so naturally there are tons of libraries that automate it for you. Personally, using dataclasses and cattrs is my goto way for doing such things.
-
Taking JSON input for "posts", "tags" etc. How to escape '\' charecter or detect carefully?
I'm fond of attrs and cattrs myself, attrs make creating data classes a snap, writing all of the stupid code python requires to have a dataclass. Note the new built in dataclass is actually a limited copy of attrs. https://www.attrs.org/en/stable/ and https://github.com/python-attrs/cattrs

apischema v0.17 - I've developed the fastest typed JSON (de)serialization library, and you can also build your GraphQL schema with it
This month, I've released version 0.17, and it's now blazing fast; there is in fact no more comparison with Pydantic, which more than 5x slower (up to 30x in serialization). It's also faster than alternatives like mashumaro or cattrs. (See the quick benchmark result in documentation, and the code)

I use attrs instead of pydantic
```
Cattrs has some problems with generics [1] [2]. Dacite and marshmallow-dataclasses don't support generics well either, with some issues around Union types.
They do work well for simple python types but what I'd like to see is guarantee that the serialisation operation is completely reversible and if not raise warning/exception.
What are some alternatives?

marshmallow - A lightweight library for converting complex objects to and from simple Python datatypes.
nexe - 🎉 create a single executable out of your node.js apps
Fast JSON schema for Python - Fast JSON schema validator for Python.
msgspec - A fast serialization and validation library, with builtin support for JSON, MessagePack, YAML, and TOML
serpy - ridiculously fast object serialization
SQLAlchemy - The Database Toolkit for Python
datamodel-code-generator - Pydantic model and dataclasses.dataclass generator for easy conversion of JSON, OpenAPI, JSON Schema, and YAML data sources.
sqlmodel - SQL databases in Python, designed for simplicity, compatibility, and robustness.
lupin is a Python JSON object mapper - Python document object mapper (load python object from JSON and vice-versa)
mypy - Optional static typing for Python
mashumaro - Fast and well tested serialization library
