Member Reference

class parasite.Namespace

Abstract base class for all namespace implementations. This class tries to mimic the behavior of a namespace in other programming languages.

Warning

Do not instantiate this class directly. It is only meant to be used as a base class for namespace implementations.

Inheritance:

Raises:

TypeError – Always, as this class is not meant to be instantiated.

class parasite.p

sudo-namespace for all parasite types. Makes it easier to import and call them. Tries to mimic the behavior of the z object imported from zod library in JavaScript.

Inheritance:

Raises:

TypeError – Always, as this class is not meant to be instantiated.

Example usage:

Let’s assume we have the following schema:

from parasite import p

schema = p.obj({
    "name": p.string().required(),
    "age": p.number().integer().min(0).optional(),
}).strip()

and the following data:

data = {
    "name": "John Doe",
    "age": 42,
    "extra": "This will be stripped",
}

The schema will parse the following objects:

>>> schema.parse(data)
{ "name": "John Doe", "age": 42 }

>>> schema.parse({})
ValidationError: key "name" not found, but is required

Raises:

TypeError – Always, as this class is not meant to be instantiated.
