Cyclic import Note

Copilot Autofix
AI 2 days ago
In general, cyclic imports in Python are best fixed by either: (1) moving the shared functionality into a third module that both original modules can import, or (2) delaying one of the imports until it is actually needed (lazy or local imports), or (3) splitting type-only usage from runtime usage and putting type imports under if TYPE_CHECKING. Since we are constrained to edits within src/validkit/validator.py and cannot restructure other files, the safest, least-invasive approach is to move the heavy, cycle-causing import of .v out of the module top level and import it lazily where its contents are needed at runtime.
The code in validator.py appears to use the imported names Validator, v, InstanceValidator, StringValidator, NumberValidator, BoolValidator, ListValidator, and DictValidator in two distinct ways: (a) for runtime logic such as _is_class_schema (which uses Validator and possibly other validators), and (b) for typing purposes. To keep type checking accurate while avoiding the runtime cycle, we should:
- Add a
TYPE_CHECKING-guarded import of these names, so that type checkers still see them. - Remove the top-level runtime import from
.v. - Introduce a small helper function in this module that performs a local import from
.vat runtime and returns the needed classes/functions. - Update the few runtime references that are executed during module import (e.g.,
_is_class_schema) to call this helper lazily to fetchValidatorinstead of using it directly from a top-level binding.
Concretely, in src/validkit/validator.py:
- Replace the top-level
from .v import (...)block with:- an
if TYPE_CHECKING:block importing the same names for type checking only, and - a private helper function (e.g.,
_get_v_classes()) that performsfrom . import v as _v_moduleorfrom .v import Validator as _Validator, ...inside the function and returns those runtime classes/functions.
- an
- Adjust
_is_class_schemaso that instead of directly referencingValidator(which no longer exists as a top-level name), it obtains it via the helper, e.g.:or similar, depending on how we structure the helper.ValidatorCls, _, _, _, _, _, _, _ = _get_v_classes() if issubclass(schema, ValidatorCls): return False
- Keep all other behavior unchanged; we are only changing where and when the
.vmodule is imported, not altering any validation logic.
Because we don’t see the rest of the file, we’ll implement a simple helper returning just Validator (the one name used in the shown snippet) and leave a clearly structured place where more names could be pulled lazily if needed. This breaks the import cycle while maintaining compatibility with type checkers and existing functionality.

Pull request overview
Adds class-based schema definitions to ValidKit by converting Python class annotations and Validator class attributes into the existing dict-schema/Validator validation path, plus an InstanceValidator for explicit isinstance checks and updated documentation/tests.
Changes:
- Add
_is_class_schema,_class_to_schema, and_type_hint_to_validatorto support validating dict inputs against annotated Python classes (includingOptional,List,Dict, and built-in generics). - Introduce
InstanceValidatorandv.instance(type_cls)for custom-type validation viaisinstance. - Add comprehensive tests for class schemas and update README to document the new notation.

InstanceValidator exposes the base .coerce() flag, and the PR description/README imply it should work like other validators, but InstanceValidator.validate() ignores self._coerce. As a result, calling v.instance(Foo).coerce() has no effect. Consider implementing a coercion path (e.g., attempt type_cls(value) when _coerce is True) or explicitly documenting/raising that coercion is unsupported for InstanceValidator.

_type_hint_to_validator() sets Validator internals (_optional, _has_default, _default_value) directly. This couples the converter to private state and bypasses the public .optional() / .default() APIs, making future Validator changes riskier. Prefer using the public methods (and/or a helper) to apply optional/default behavior.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
_type_hint_to_validator() treats Union[T1, T2, ...] (without None) as a passthrough Validator(), which means annotations like Union[int, str] will accept any type without validation. Either implement real Union validation (e.g., try validating against each member validator and fail if none match) or explicitly document/raise for unsupported unions to avoid silently disabling type checking.

_is_class_schema() currently returns False for an empty class (no __annotations__ and no Validator attributes). In that case validate(data, EmptyClass) falls through to the default return and does not behave like an empty schema (e.g., it would not drop extra keys). If the intended behavior is “empty class => empty schema”, consider treating any non-Validator, non-basic class as a class schema (so _class_to_schema() returns {}), or adjust the documented/tested behavior accordingly.

The module docstring lists typing annotations including Union, but this test module doesn’t cover Union[...] semantics, and the current implementation treats non-Optional Union as a passthrough (no type checking). Consider removing Union from this docstring or adding explicit tests that pin the intended behavior.
