Quickstart

Lets take a simple Todo example, whereby we want to define a Todo object to be validated,

schema.py

from dataclasses import dataclass
from datetime import datetime

from quart import Quart
from quart_schema import QuartSchema, validate_request, validate_response

app = Quart(__name__)
QuartSchema(app)

@dataclass
class Todo:
    task: str
    due: datetime | None

@app.route("/", methods=["POST"])
@validate_request(Todo)
@validate_response(Todo, 201)
async def create_todo(data: Todo) -> tuple[Todo, int]:
    """Create a Todo"""
    # Do something with data, e.g. save to the DB
    ...
    return data, 201

and is simply run via

python schema.py

or alternatively

$ export QUART_APP=schema:app
$ quart run

and tested by

curl -v -H "content-type: application/json" -d '{"due":"2020-12-08T11:19:35.818445","task":"Build an example"}' localhost:5000/
