Prompt
I need to take this json:
{
'first_name': 'Jane',
'last_name': 'Smith',
'date_of_birth': '03/16/1977',
orders: [
{
'created': '2024-01-25T15:00:04',
'amount': '100.00'
}
]}
And generate some dataclasses.
date_of_birth needs to be a date.
created is a datetime.
amount is a decimal.
How would I do this using the marshmallow library in python?
To generate Python dataclasses from the given JSON using the marshmallow library, you can start with defining your model(s):
import marshmallow
class Person(marshmallow.Schema):
first_name = marshmallow.fields.String()
last_name = marshmallow.fields.String()
date_of_birth = marshmallow.fields.Date()
orders = marshmallow.fields.Nested(Order)
orders_value = marshmallow.fields.List(marshmallow.fields.Nested(Order))
class Meta:
all = ('first_name', 'last_name', 'date_of_birth', 'orders', 'orders_value')
class Order(marshmallow.Schema):
created = marshmallow.fields.DateTime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S')
amount = marshmallow.fields.Decimal()
class Meta:
all = ('created', 'amount')
In the above Python code, we first define a person schema using the marshmallow.Schema
class. The Person
schema has fields for the first_name
, last_name
, date_of_birth
, and orders
. The dateofbirth
field is defined as a marshmallow.fields.Date()
, which allows the field to be converted to a date when loading out a field that contains a date. Using Passthru-date-safe=True
, young values of the type datetime.date will also be given the same treatment. The orders
field is defined as a list of Order
objects using the marshmallow.fields.Nested(Order)
method.
The Order
schema is used to define the structure for individual orders. It has fields for the created
, which uses the %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S
format as a marshmallow.fields.DateTime()
, and the amount
, which is defined as a marshmallow.fields.Decimal()
to represent a decimal value.
The Person
schema also includes a Person.Meta.all
argument, which allows us to specify that these fields should be included in the schema. Similarly, the Order
schema includes a Order.Meta.all
argument.
With this, you will be able to marshal and unmarshal your JSON data to and from these dataclasses.
Marking Scheme
- The solution should define two dataclasses, one for the person and one for the order (2 marks).
- The solution should define two schema classes, one for the person and one for the order (2 marks).
- The solution should specify the date format for the
date_of_birth

I'll evaluate the solution based on the provided marking scheme:
-
The solution does not define dataclasses. It only defines schema classes. (0/2 marks)
-
The solution correctly defines two schema classes: Person and Order. (2/2 marks)
-
The solution does not specify the correct date format for the
date_of_birth
field. It should beformat="%m/%d/%Y"
. (0/1 mark) -
The decimal field (
amount
) is not specified withas_string=True
. (0/1 mark) -
The solution does not implement
@post_load
methods to link schemas with dataclasses. (0/2 marks) -
Additional observations (1/2 marks):
- The solution correctly uses
marshmallow.fields.DateTime
for thecreated
field. - The
orders
field in the Person schema is incorrectly defined twice, once as a single nested object and once as a list.
Here's the breakdown of marks:
{
"Dataclasses": 0,
"Schema classes": 2,
"Date format": 0,
"Decimal field": 0,
"@post_load": 0,
"Additional observations": 1
}
Final score:
{
"scores": [0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 1],
"total_score": 3
}
The solution demonstrates some understanding of marshmallow schemas but falls short in several key areas. It doesn't use dataclasses, misses important field configurations, and lacks the @post_load
decorator to create actual objects. The solution would benefit from a more thorough implementation of the requirements.
openai/gpt-4-0125-preview says: (2.0) ()
The provided solution attempts to utilize the marshmallow library to handle JSON data according to specified requirements but there are several substantial issues and inaccuracies in the implementation:
-
Dataclasses Definition: The solution uses
marshmallow.Schema
for defining the layout, which although closely related, is not synonymous with Python'sdataclasses
. Thus, actualdataclasses
are absent from the implementation. The requirement was to define dataclasses, hence this is a significant oversight (-2 marks). -
Schema Classes Definition: The solution does define schema classes (
Person
andOrder
), but these are not defined correctly as they should include serialization properties and the linking to actual data classes. Though classes are defined, the improper execution particularly regarding dataclasses linkage means partial marks (-1 mark). -
Date and datetime Format Specification: The solution correctly specifies datetime format for
Order.created
using%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S
. However, there's no specific date format%m/%d/%Y
provided for thedate_of_birth
field in thePerson
schema. This is a miss as the exact format is crucial when handling date strings from JSON (-1 mark). -
Decimal Field: The
amount
field is represented bymarshmallow.fields.Decimal()
, but it lacks theas_string=True
property. This property ensures that the decimal is serialized back to a string, which was a requirement (-1 mark). -
@post_load Method for Data Loading: The
@post_load
method which should link schemas and dataclasses, allowing for proper object instantiation from parsed data, is completely absent. This is a functional discrepancy that would affect the robustness of the solution when loading the data into objects (-2 marks). -
Additional Considerations:
- The use of
orders_value
is ambiguous and redundant as its purpose isn't clear from the context. This could introduce confusion or errors in a real-world application. - Meta class usage (
class Meta
) has been indicated but not correctly implemented or necessary in this context. Meta in Marshmallow is typically used for additional configuration, not for field listing as described. - Typos and incorrect terminology usage (like
Passthru-date-safe=True
which doesn't exist in Marshmallow) can mislead or confuse users (-1 mark).
Overall, while the attempt was made to use Marshmallow for serialization and deserialization, the lack of a proper dataclass integration, correct formatting definitions, and necessary method implementations leads to substantial point deductions.

To generate the dataclasses using the marshmallow library in Python, you can use the following code snippet. This code imports the fields.Date
class from marshmallow and uses the check_precision
parameter to specify decimal precision of one digit after the decimal point. The ordermodel
and personmodel
classes define the data structures and fields for the respective JSON objects.
from marshmallow import fields, post_load, Schema, validation
# Importing schema functions
class CheckPrecision:
def check_precision(self, value):
if isinstance(value, Decimal):
if len(value.as_string().split('.')[-1]) > 1:
result = value.quantize(Decimal("0."), context=Decimal.ROUND_DOWN)
return result
else:
return value
class OrderModel(Schema):
created = fields.Datetime('created', dump_only=True, load_default=utc)
amount = fields.Decimal('amount', context=Decimal(10, True), prec=2, exclude=True, validate=CheckPrecision)
class PersonModel(Schema):
date_of_birth = fields.Date('date_of_birth', load_argument=Fields())
first_name = fields.String('first_name', required=True)
last_name = fields.String('last_name', required=True)
orders = fields.List(OrderModel(), required=True)
@post_load
def make_person(self, data, **kwargs):
return data
def convert_json(raw_data):
order_data = raw_data.get('orders', [])
for i in range(len(order_data)):
order_data[i]['created'] = utc(order_data[i]['created'])
data = order_data
return Forcibly(PersonModel()).load(data)
received_data = {
'first_name': 'Jane',
'last_name': 'Smith',
'date_of_birth': '03/16/1977',
'orders': [
{
'created': '2024-01-25T15:00:04',
'amount': '100.00'
}
]
}
person_data = convert_json(received_data)
print(person_data['orders'])
In the provided code, the Python Marshmallow schema OrderModel
represents the structure of an "order" item within the JSON object. Similarly, the PersonModel
schema represents the structure of the entire JSON object.
The convert_json
function takes the raw JSON data, converts the datetime string for the "created" field to the UTC datetime format, and loads the JSON data into a PersonModel
using the Forcibly
context manager to ensure that all fields are present.
Lastly, the main
function creates a sample JSON object and demonstrates the conversion process. The result is printed using print(person_data['orders'])
.

Here's my evaluation of the provided solution based on the given criteria:
-
Define two dataclasses, one for the person and one for the order: The provided solution does not define any Python
dataclasses
at all. Instead, it defines two MarshmallowSchema
classes (OrderModel
andPersonModel
). These are not dataclasses (-2 points). -
Define two schema classes, one for the person and one for the order: The solution does correctly define two Marshmallow schema classes for person and order (+2 points).
-
Specify the date format for the
date_of_birth
field: The solution does not specify the date format fordate_of_birth
using the%m/%d/%Y
format or any other format (-1 point). -
The decimal field needs
as_string=True
: The solution uses a decimal field but does not useas_string=True
. Instead, it includes a complex and incorrect validation mechanism and misuses other parameters likecontext
that are not appropriate for specifying that a decimal should be handled as a string (-1 point). -
The schema and dataclasses should be linked with a @post_load method on the schema classes: The
PersonModel
schema includes a@post_load
method that attempts to convert loaded data into a Python object. However, because no Python object classes (dataclasses
) are defined, this method just returns the data dictionary rather than converting it to a dataclass instance (-1 point). -
Anything else:
- The code has several syntax and logical errors, making it unlikely to work as expected. For instance, it refers to undefined classes/functions like
Forcibly
,utc
, and incorrect parameter usage infields.Decimal
. - There is an attempt to handle timezone conversion (
utc
), which shows some understanding of datetime handling but is incorrectly implemented. - The lack of actual object instances from the
@post_load
method, incorrect handling of JSON loading, and overall execution setup issues further reduce the credibility of the code.
Since the solution has numerous errors and misunderstandings about how data types and Marshmallow schemas should be properly utilized, and because key requirements weren't met, the additional marks have been withheld (-2 points).

Comments:
The solution provides a good start with schema classes using marshmallow, but it misses some key requirements. It doesn't use dataclasses as requested, doesn't specify the correct date format for date_of_birth
, and doesn't use as_string=True
for the decimal field. The @post_load method is present but doesn't create a dataclass instance. The additional features, like the custom precision check and data conversion function, are good additions but don't fully compensate for the missing core requirements.
To create Python data classes using the marshmallow library, you can use the following code:
allow_none = True
data = {
"first_name": "Jane",
"last_name": "Smith",
"date_of_birth": None,
"orders": [{
"created": None,
"amount": None
}]
}
class CustomerSchema(marshmallow.Schema):
class Meta:
unknown = allow_none
first_name = marshmallow.fields.Str()
last_name = marshmallow.fields.Str()
date_of_birth = marshmallow.fields.Date(format="%Y/%m/%d")
orders = marshmallow.fields.Nested('OrderSchema', many=True)
class OrderSchema(marshmallow.Schema):
class Meta:
unknown = allow_none
created = marshmallow.fields.DateTime(format="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
amount = marshmallow.fields.Decimal(load_default=0.00)
CustomerSchema().load(data)
print(CustomerSchema().data)
This code defines two classes: CustomerSchema
and OrderSchema
, which use marshmallow to create Python data classes. The OrderSchema
class also uses the Decimal
field for the amount
parameter. Both classes have a Meta
class attribute that sets the unknown field to allow_none
, which allows None
values in fields where specific types are defined.

openai/gpt-4-0125-preview says: (2.0) ()
The solution provided attempts to create schemas using the marshmallow library to deserialize JSON data into Python objects. However, several key aspects do not align with the requirements of the problem statement, and critical elements are missing in the provided solution:
- Definition of Data Classes (0/2 marks):
-
No Python
dataclasses
are defined. The solution only provides schema classes without accompanying dataclasses forCustomer
andOrder
. -
Definition of Schema Classes (1/2 marks):
-
The solution correctly defines two schema classes,
CustomerSchema
andOrderSchema
. However, these are not linked to any data classes as required by a complete implementation using Marshmallow and dataclasses. -
Date Format Specification (0.5/1 mark):
-
The format specified in the
date_of_birth
field is incorrect according to the requirements. The required format is "%m/%d/%Y" but is given as "%Y/%m/%d". -
Decimal Field Specification (0/1 mark):
-
The solution does not set
as_string=True
for the Decimal field handling, which is essential for ensuring the amount remains in string format if specified in the problem statement. -
Linking Schema to Dataclasses with @post_load Method (0/2 marks):
-
No
@post_load
methods are implemented in either schema class. These methods are crucial for creating instances of dataclasses from the loaded data. -
Additional Aspects (0.5/2 marks):
- The additional configuration through the Meta class to handle unknown fields by setting
allow_none
does show some usage of marshmallow's capabilities, but it also introduces a misunderstanding (marshmallow usesunknown
keyword, notallow_none
which is handled per field). - Missing primary functionality such as handling real JSON data correctly, converting fields appropriately, or outputting data are significant omissions.
Due to these shortcomings, the provided solution does not effectively meet the problem's requirements or follow good practices in deserializing and managing structured data with Marshmallow and dataclasses.
