Example Code

class HeroBase(SQLModel):
    name: str
    secret_name: str
    age: Optional[int] = None

class HeroUpdate(HeroBase, all_optional=True):
    pass

Description

Is it possible to add the ability to modify the fields of a base class to convert them to all optional with a parameter like the table=True but in this case all_optional=True? This would help eliminate the duplication when creating a class for making updates.

Wanted Solution

Set all base fields to Optional based on keyword argument.

Wanted Code

class HeroBase(SQLModel):
    name: str
    secret_name: str
    age: Optional[int] = None

class HeroUpdate(HeroBase, all_optional=True):
    pass
