Projects that use datamodel-code-generator

These OSS projects use datamodel-code-generator to generate many models. See the following linked projects for real world examples and inspiration.

Supported input types

Supported output types

Installation

To install datamodel-code-generator:

$ pip install datamodel-code-generator

http extra option

If you want to resolve $ref for remote files then you should specify http extra option.

$ pip install 'datamodel-code-generator[http]'

graphql extra option

If you want to generate data model from a GraphQL schema then you should specify graphql extra option.

$ pip install 'datamodel-code-generator[graphql]'

Docker Image

The docker image is in Docker Hub

$ docker pull koxudaxi/datamodel-code-generator

Advanced Uses

You can generate models from a URL.

$ datamodel-codegen --url https://<INPUT FILE URL> --output model.py
This method needs the http extra option

All Command Options

The datamodel-codegen command:
