Exclude any FK fields in pydantic_model_creator

class User(models.Model):
    id = fields.IntField(pk=True)
    username = fields.CharField(max_length=128, index=True, unique=True)
    email = fields.CharField(max_length=128, unique=True, index=True)

class Event(models.Model):
    id = fields.IntField(pk=True)
    name = fields.CharField(max_length=128)
    user = fields.ForeignKeyField("models.User", related_name="events")

It would be nice to add such a solution:

Event_Pydantic = pydantic_model_creator(Event, exclude=("user__email",))

You can already do that, but you need to use ‘.’ as separators:

Event_List_Pydantic = pydantic_model_creator(Event, exclude=("user.email", "user.is_staff", "user.is_superuser",))

Let’s say we have more model fields

class User(models.Model):
    id
    username
    email
    is_staff
    is_superuser
    user_permissions
    
     class PydanticMeta:
        exclude = ("email", "is_staff", "is_superuser", "user_permissions" )

Suppose we have a method in which I want to return a list of events and in this list I do not need additional information about the user, except for the id and username. If I use your way of processing, this will apply to all subsequent methods. In the / events / method I will get the desired data, and in the / profile / method I need detailed information about the user.

Such a solution will give more flexible pydantic models:

User_Pydantic = pydantic_model_creator(User)
Event_List_Pydantic = pydantic_model_creator(Event, exclude=("user__email", "user__is_staff", "user__is_superuser",))
Event_Single_Pydantic = pydantic_model_creator(Event)
