                a schema dict (e.g., `{'name': String(required=True)}`) for `json`
                location.
            example: The example data in dict for request body, you should use either
                `example` or `examples`, not both.
            examples: Multiple examples for request body, you should pass a dict

            validation: Flag to allow disabling of validation on input. Default to `True`.

        - Add parameter `validation` to allow disabling of validation on input.

        *Version changed: 2.0.0*

        - Always pass parsed data to view function as a keyword argument.
          The argument name will be in the form of `{location}_data`.

        *Version changed: 1.0*

        - Ensure only one input body location was used.
        - Add `form_and_files` and `json_or_form` (from webargs) location.
        - Rewrite `files` to act as `form_and_files`.
        - Use correct request content type for `form` and `files`.

        The decorator will format the return value of your view function with
        provided marshmallow schema. You can return a dict or an object (such
        as a model class instance of ORMs). APIFlask will handle the formatting

        P.S. The output data will not be validated; it's a design choice of marshmallow.
        marshmallow 4.0 may be support the output validation.

        Examples:

        ```python
        from apiflask import APIFlask

        Arguments:
            schema: The schemas of the output data.
            status_code: The status code of the response, defaults to `200`.
            description: The description of the response.
            schema_name: The schema name for dict schema, only needed when you pass
                a schema dict (e.g., `{'name': String()}`).
            example: The example data in dict for response body, you should use either
                `example` or `examples`, not both.
            examples: Multiple examples for response body, you should pass a dict

            links: The `links` of response. It accepts a dict which maps a link name to
                a link object. Example:

                ```python
                {

input(schema, location='json', arg_name=None, schema_name=None, example=None, examples=None, validation=True, **kwargs)

Add input settings for view functions.

If the validation passed, the data will be injected into the view function as a keyword argument in the form of dict and named {location}_data. Otherwise, an error response with the detail of the validation result will be returned.

Be sure to put it under the routes decorators (i.e., app.route, app.get, app.post, etc.).

    return 'Hello'!

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
schema SchemaType

The marshmallow schema of the input data.

required
location str

The location of the input data, one of 'json' (default), 'files', 'form', 'cookies', 'headers', 'query' (same as 'querystring').

'json'
arg_name str | None

The name of the argument passed to the view function, defaults to {location}_data.

None
schema_name str | None

The schema name for dict schema, only needed when you pass a schema dict (e.g., {'name': String(required=True)}) for json location.

None
example Any | None

The example data in dict for request body, you should use either example or examples, not both.

None
examples dict[str, Any] | None

Multiple examples for request body, you should pass a dict that contains multiple examples. Example:

{
    'example foo': {  # example name
        'summary': 'an example of foo',  # summary field is optional
        'value': {'name': 'foo', 'id': 1}  # example value
    },
    'example bar': {
        'summary': 'an example of bar',
        'value': {'name': 'bar', 'id': 2}
    },
}
None
validation bool

Flag to allow disabling of validation on input. Default to True.

True

*Version changed: 2.2.2

            `'files'`, `'form'`, `'cookies'`, `'headers'`, `'query'`
            (same as `'querystring'`).
        arg_name: The name of the argument passed to the view function,
            defaults to `{location}_data`.
        schema_name: The schema name for dict schema, only needed when you pass
            a schema dict (e.g., `{'name': String(required=True)}`) for `json`
            location.
        example: The example data in dict for request body, you should use either
            `example` or `examples`, not both.
        examples: Multiple examples for request body, you should pass a dict
            that contains multiple examples. Example:

            ```python
            {
                'example foo': {  # example name
                    'summary': 'an example of foo',  # summary field is optional
                    'value': {'name': 'foo', 'id': 1}  # example value
                },
                'example bar': {
                    'summary': 'an example of bar',
                    'value': {'name': 'bar', 'id': 2}
                },
            }
            ```
        validation: Flag to allow disabling of validation on input. Default to `True`.

    *Version changed: 2.2.2

    - Add parameter `validation` to allow disabling of validation on input.

    *Version changed: 2.0.0*

    - Always pass parsed data to view function as a keyword argument.
      The argument name will be in the form of `{location}_data`.

    *Version changed: 1.0*

    - Ensure only one input body location was used.
    - Add `form_and_files` and `json_or_form` (from webargs) location.
    - Rewrite `files` to act as `form_and_files`.
    - Use correct request content type for `form` and `files`.

    *Version changed: 0.12.0*

    - Move to APIFlask and APIBlueprint classes.

    *Version changed: 0.4.0*

    - Add parameter `examples`.

output(schema, status_code=200, description=None, schema_name=None, example=None, examples=None, links=None, content_type='application/json', headers=None)

Add output settings for view functions.

Be sure to put it under the routes decorators (i.e., app.route, app.get, app.post, etc.).

The decorator will format the return value of your view function with provided marshmallow schema. You can return a dict or an object (such as a model class instance of ORMs). APIFlask will handle the formatting and turn your return value into a JSON response.

P.S. The output data will not be validated; it's a design choice of marshmallow. marshmallow 4.0 may be support the output validation.

Examples:

from apiflask import APIFlask

app = APIFlask(__name__)

@app.get('/')
@app.output(PetOut)
def hello():
    return the_dict_or_object_match_petout_schema

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
schema SchemaType

The schemas of the output data.

required
status_code int

The status code of the response, defaults to 200.

200
description str | None

The description of the response.

None
schema_name str | None

The schema name for dict schema, only needed when you pass a schema dict (e.g., {'name': String()}).

None
example Any | None

The example data in dict for response body, you should use either example or examples, not both.

None
examples dict[str, Any] | None

Multiple examples for response body, you should pass a dict that contains multiple examples. Example:

{
    'example foo': {  # example name
        'summary': 'an example of foo',  # summary field is optional
        'value': {'name': 'foo', 'id': 1}  # example value
    },
    'example bar': {
        'summary': 'an example of bar',
        'value': {'name': 'bar', 'id': 2}
    },
}
None
links dict[str, Any] | None

The links of response. It accepts a dict which maps a link name to a link object. Example:

{
    'getAddressByUserId': {
        'operationId': 'getUserAddress',
        'parameters': {
            'userId': '$request.path.id'
        }
    }
}

See the docs for more details about setting response links.

None
content_type str | None

The content/media type of the response. It defaults to application/json.

'application/json'
headers SchemaType | None

The schemas of the headers.
