pydantic2-resolve 2.1.1

create nested data structure easily

Pydantic-resolve is a schema based, hierarchical solution for fetching and crafting data.

It combines the advantages of restful and graphql.

Advantages:

1. use declaretive way to define view data, easy to maintain and develop
2. enhance the traditional restful response, to support gql-like style data structure.
3. provide post_method and other tools to craft resolved data.

Concepts from GraphQL to Pydantic-resolve

query {
    MyBlogSite {
        name
        blogs {
            id
            title
            comments {
                id
                content
            }
            # comment_count
        }
        # comment_count
    }
}


This is how we do queries in GraphQL, dive by describing schema and field names.

Assuming `comment_count` is a extra field (length of comment), which is required and calculated by client after fetching the data.

client side so need to iterate over the blogs to get the length and the sum, which is boring (things gets worse if the structure is deeper).

In pydantic-resolve, we can handle comment_count at server side, by transforming the query into pydantic schemas and attach some resolve, post methods.


```python
import blog_service as bs
import comment_service as cs

class MySite(BaseModel):
    blogs: list[MySiteBlog] = []
    async def resolve_blogs(self):
        return await bs.get_blogs()

    comment_count: int = 0
    def post_comment_count(self):
        return sum([b.comment_count for b in self.blogs])

# -------- inherit and extend ----------
class MySiteBlog(bs.Blog):  
    comments: list[cs.Comment] = []
    def resolve_comments(self, loader=LoaderDepend(cs.blog_to_comments_loader)):
        return loader.load(self.id)

    comment_count: int = 0
    def post_comment_count(self):
        return len(self.comments)
        
async def main():
    my_blog_site = MyBlogSite(name: "tangkikodo's blog")
    my_blog_site = await Resolver().resolve(my_blog_site)

schemas , query functions and loader functions are provided by entity's service modules.

So that we can declare customrized schema by simpily INHERIT and EXTEND from base schemas.

This just sounds like columns of values (inherit) and of foreign keys (extend) in concept of relational database.

After transforming GraphQL query into pydantic schemas, post calculation become dead easy, and no more iterations.
