Migration from previous versions to 0.51.0

• In this version was introduced the namespace dataclasses_avroschema.pydantic and the nanespace dataclasses_avroschema.avrodantic was removed. To make use of AvroBaseModel then replade the import from dataclasses_avroschema.avrodantic import AvroBaseModel by from dataclasses_avroschema.pydantic import AvroBaseModel

• If you are using AvroModel field attributes like klass, metadata, etc then all of them now are private (_klass, _metadata, etc). By design was intended not used them, now it is explicit.

Migration from previous versions to 0.45.1

• Previously Unions that had default_factory where force to return a callable which the return type must be list or dict, now is not the case any more. If you use default_factory makes sure that it is a callable, that's it. This new fix also will be complain with type checkers.

import dataclasses

from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel


@dataclasses.dataclass
class Bus(AvroModel):
    "A Bus"
    engine_name: str

    class Meta:
        namespace = "types"


@dataclasses.dataclass
class Car(AvroModel):
    "A Car"
    engine_name: str

    class Meta:
        namespace = "types"


@dataclasses.dataclass
class UnionSchema(AvroModel):
  "Some Unions"
  lake_trip: Bus | Car
  river_trip: Bus | Car | None = None
  mountain_trip: Bus | Car = dataclasses.field(
      default_factory=lambda: Bus(engine_name="honda"))
  # mountain_trip: Bus | Car = dataclasses.field(default_factory=lambda: {"engine_name": "honda"}) # OLD WAY

UnionSchema.avro_schema()

• Field internal api updated:
• to_avro was renamed to default_to_avro and is an instance method

Migration from previous versions to 0.27.0

python <= 3.10python >= 3.11

• types.Enum was replaced with enum.Enum. You must create your custom enum, example:

import dataclasses
from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel, types


class UserAdvance(AvroModel):
    name: str
    age: int
    favorite_colors: types.Enum = types.Enum(["BLUE", "YELLOW", "GREEN"], default="BLUE")  # --> replace with field!!!

should be replaced by:

import enum
import dataclasses
from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel


class FavoriteColor(enum.Enum):
    BLUE = "BLUE"
    YELLOW = "YELLOW"
    GREEN = "GREEN"


class UserAdvance:
    name: str
    age: int
    favorite_colors: FavoriteColor = FavoriteColor.BLUE  # --> field updated!!!

• types.Enum was replaced with str, enum.Enum. You must create your custom enum, example:

import dataclasses
from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel, types


class UserAdvance(AvroModel):
    name: str
    age: int
    favorite_colors: types.Enum = types.Enum(["BLUE", "YELLOW", "GREEN"], default="BLUE")  # --> replace with field!!!

should be replaced by:

import enum
import dataclasses
from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel


# New enum!!
class FavoriteColor(str, enum.Enum):
    BLUE = "BLUE"
    YELLOW = "YELLOW"
    GREEN = "GREEN"


@dataclasses.dataclass
class UserAdvance(AvroModel):
    name: str
    age: int
    favorite_colors: FavoriteColor = FavoriteColor.BLUE  # --> field updated!!!

Migration from previous versions to 0.23.0

1. Now the name for Nested record uses the class.__name__ instead of `class.__name__.lower()_record.

having this schemas:

import typing

from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel


class Address(AvroModel):
    "An Address"
    street: str
    street_number: int


class User(AvroModel):
    "User with multiple Address"
    name: str
    age: int
    addresses: typing.Dict[str, Address]


# PREVIOUS
User.avro_schema()
{
  "type": "record",
  "name": "User",
  "fields": [
    {"name": "name", "type": "string"},
    {"name": "age", "type": "long"},
    {"name": "addresses", "type": {
        "type": "map",
        "values": {
          "type": "record",
          "name": "address_record",
          "fields": [
            {"name": "street", "type": "string"},
            {"name": "street_number", "type": "long"}
          ],
          "doc": "An Address"
        },
        "name": "address"
      }
    }
  ],
  "doc": "User with multiple Address"
}


# VERSIONS 0.23.0
User.avro_schema()
{
  "type": "record",
  "name": "User",
  "fields": [
    {"name": "name", "type": "string"},
    {"name": "age", "type": "long"},
    {"name": "addresses", "type": {
        "type": "map",
        "values": {
          "type": "record",
          "name": "Address",
          "fields": [
            {"name": "street", "type": "string"},
            {"name": "street_number", "type": "long"}
          ],
          "doc": "An Address"
        },
        "name": "address"
      }
    }
  ],
  "doc": "User with multiple Address"
}

1. Now we use namespaces when same types are referenced multiple times (DRY), so you MUST define the property namespace:

import dataclasses
import datetime

from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel


@dataclasses.dataclass
class Location(AvroModel):
    latitude: float
    longitude: float

    class Meta:
        namespace = "types.location_type"  # REQUIRED!!!!


@dataclasses.dataclass
class Trip(AvroModel):
    start_time: datetime.datetime
    start_location: Location
    finish_time: datetime.datetime
    finish_location: Location

Trip.avro_schema_to_python()

{
  "type": "record",
  "name": "Trip",
  "fields": [
    {
      "name": "start_time",
      "type": {"type": "long", "logicalType": "timestamp-millis"}
    },
    {
      "name": "start_location",
      "type": {"type": "record",
      "name": "Location",
        "fields": [
          {"name": "latitude", "type": "double"},
          {"name": "longitude", "type": "double"}
        ],
      "doc": "Location(latitude: float, longitude: float)",
      "namespace": "types.location_type"}},
    {
      "name": "finish_time",
      "type": {"type": "long", "logicalType": "timestamp-millis"}
    },
    {
      "name": "finish_location", "type": "types.location_type.Location"  // using the namespace
    }
  ],
  "doc": "Trip(start_time: datetime.datetime, start_location: __main__.Location, finish_time: datetime.datetime, finish_location: __main__.Location)"
}

Migration from previous versions to 0.14.0

Now all the dataclasses should inheritance from AvroModel and not use anymore the SchemaGenerator:

# Versions < 0.14.0
import dataclasses
import typing
from dataclasses_avroschema import SchemaGenerator, types


class User:
    "An User"
    name: str
    age: int
    pets: typing.List[str]
    accounts: typing.Dict[str, int]
    favorite_colors: types.Enum = types.Enum(["BLUE", "YELLOW", "GREEN"])
    country: str = "Argentina"
    address: str = None

SchemaGenerator(User).avro_schema()

new version

import dataclasses
import typing
from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel, types


@dataclasses.dataclass
class User(AvroModel):
    "An User"
    name: str
    age: int
    pets: typing.List[str]
    accounts: typing.Dict[str, int]
    favorite_colors: types.Enum = types.Enum(["BLUE", "YELLOW", "GREEN"])
    country: str = "Argentina"
    address: str = None


User.avro_schema()

Another changes introduced was the way that extra avro attributes are represented, like namespace, aliases and whether to include avro documentation:

import dataclasses
import typing

from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel


class User:
    "My User Class"
    name: str
    age: int
    has_pets: bool = False
    money: float = 100.3

    def extra_avro_attributes() -> typing.Dict[str, typing.Any]:
        return {
            "namespace": "test.com.ar/user/v1",
            "aliases": ["User", "My favorite User"]
        }

SchemaGenerator(User, include_schema_doc=False).avro_schema()

# Now is perform using a Meta class

@dataclasses.dataclass
class User(AvroModel):
    "My User Class"
    name: str
    age: int
    has_pets: bool = False
    money: float = 100.3

    class Meta:
        schema_doc = False
        namespace = "test.com.ar/user/v1"
        aliases = ["User", "My favorite User"]
