Feature request: Refactoring to rename a model attribute changes the name in initializers

This would bring it in-line with how doing a refactor on the __init__ signature works for normal classes. I could imagine this being hard to accomplish, in which case it may not be worth it, but it would be a very nice capability to have.

Neither the attrs nor dataclass plugins support this now, so it’s by no means a need-to-have, but that didn’t stop you from solving #4 ! And again, I think it would be very useful!

More concretely, right now, when you do a refactor, you go from this:

to this:

I would like it to instead go to this:

Yes, I think that’s right. I personally never use pydantic.dataclasses.dataclass, but there are enough issues about it on the pydantic github that it seems worth supporting (eventually).

Regardless, I think this plugin is already useful enough (and bug-free enough) to be worth 1) including in the PyCharm plugin store (or whatever it is called), and 2) including somewhere in the pydantic docs.

Thank you for all your effort on this!!

I’m going to close this and open a more specific issue, given this now works.
