Data validation and settings management using Python type hinting.
Fast and extensible, pydantic plays nicely with your linters/IDE/brain. Define how data should be in pure, canonical Python 3.6+; validate it with pydantic.
See documentation for more details.
Install using pip install -U pydantic or conda install pydantic -c conda-forge.
For more installation options to make pydantic even faster,
see the Install section in the documentation.
