pydantic is an increasingly popular library for python 3.6+ projects. It mainly does data validation and settings management using type hints.

A basic example using different types:

from pydantic import BaseModel

class ClassicBar(BaseModel):
    count_drinks: int
    is_open: bool
 
data = {'count_drinks': '226', 'is_open': 'False'}
cb = ClassicBar(**data)
>>> cb
ClassicBar(count_drinks=226, is_open=False)

What I love about the lib is that you get a lot of goodies for free, like

>>> cb.json()
'{"count_drinks": 226, "is_open": false}'
>>> cb.dict()
{'count_drinks': 226, 'is_open': False}
