SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Pydantic V2 strict mode enforces type-safety by eliminating implicit type coercion across all models, preventing silent bugs in data handling.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Use ConfigDict(strict=True, frozen=True, extra='forbid', validate_assignment=True) to configure models for strict validation, immutability, and strict field handling.
  • Use Field() for constraints and metadata to enforce data quality and self-documenting models.
  • Facilitate migration from Pydantic 1 to 2 by embracing new validators (@field_validator, @model_validator) and removing legacy patterns.
  • Enforce data contracts and DTOs across services with explicit, predictable serialization and validation behavior.

Quick Start

Create a strict-mode Pydantic V2 model by using ConfigDict and Field constraints, then validate inputs with model_validate to guarantee exact types.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prevent implicit type coercion in Pydantic V2?

To prevent implicit type coercion in Pydantic V2, enforce strict-mode data modeling by configuring models with ConfigDict(strict=True). This ensures exact type validation and eliminates silent bugs in data handling.

What is the best way to configure immutable data contracts using Pydantic?

Configuring immutable data contracts using Pydantic requires setting ConfigDict with strict=True and frozen=True. This enforces strict validation, prevents field modification, and ensures predictable serialization across services.

How do I migrate validators from Pydantic 1 to V2 strict mode?

Migrating validators to V2 strict mode involves replacing legacy patterns with @field_validator and @model_validator. This transition ensures deterministic validation behavior while adhering to strict type-safety requirements.

Can I use Pydantic V2 strict mode for validating API inputs and outputs?

Pydantic V2 strict mode is fully applicable for validating API inputs and outputs. It enforces explicit data contracts and DTOs across services, using model_validate to guarantee exact types and prevent invalid data processing.

Why does Pydantic V2 silently coerce data types instead of rejecting them?

Pydantic V2 silently coerces data types by default, but you can disable this by applying strict-mode data modeling. Configuring models with ConfigDict(strict=True) prevents implicit type coercion and ensures deterministic validation.

How do I forbid extra fields in a Pydantic V2 configuration class?

To forbid extra fields in a Pydantic V2 configuration class, use ConfigDict with the extra='forbid' setting. This enforces strict field handling and prevents undeclared variables from passing validation.
