avocato: simple and fast object serialization¶
avocato is a simple and fast ORM/framework-agnostic object serialization library for converting complex objects to and from simple Python datatypes.
Don’t be scared if you’re using an ORM/framework. It can easily be adapted to be used with any ORM/framework of your liking. Currently it supports Django ORM and peewee.
This library is heavily influenced by serpy.
Installation¶
$ pip install avocato

class Foo(object):
over = 9000
spongebob = 'squarepants'

class BarSerializer(avocato.Serializer):
patrick = avocato.StrField()
class FooSerializer(avocato.Serializer):
over = avocato.IntField()
spongebob = avocato.StrField()
bar = BarSerializer()
foo = Foo()
FooSerializer(foo).data
# {'over': 9000, 'spongebob': 'squarepants', 'bar': {'patrick': 'star'}}
