schema validation less strict

[nicolaiarocci]

Hello!

If you're aiming for a read-only API you don't need to provide a schema at all (see http://python-eve.org/quickstart.html#a-minimal-application). A schema is needed only for data validation and usually you don't want clients to inject unknown fields in your document. What is your use case? - thanks!

One case I see it could be good is during the development cycle. It would avoid having to bounce eve every time a dev needs to add a new field to collection...

hi,

My use case, it 's to store information about various system. Some information follow a schema, others depend on plugins installed on these systems.

Don't have all normalized information was the reason for me to use mongodb.

[nicolaiarocci]

Totally makes sense. Planned.

If you have not already worked on, I will try to work on this week end. Maybe, some changes on Cerberus will be necessaries.

[nicolaiarocci]

Haven't looked at it yet. Feel free to experiment.

So I guess that an option to allow unknown field/value pairs would be ideal, right?

[chronidev]

Yes it's great.
