Trait ModelDump 

pub trait ModelDump {
    // Required method
    fn model_dump(&self, options: DumpOptions) -> DumpResult;

    // Provided methods
    fn model_dump_json(&self) -> Result<String, Error> { ... }
    fn model_dump_json_pretty(&self) -> Result<String, Error> { ... }
    fn model_dump_json_with_options(
        &self,
        options: DumpOptions,
    ) -> Result<String, Error> { ... }
}

Trait for models that support model_dump().

This is typically implemented via blanket impl for models that implement Serialize.

Required Methods

fn model_dump(&self, options: DumpOptions) -> DumpResult

Serialize a model to a JSON value.

Arguments

• options - Dump options controlling serialization behavior

Returns

A serde_json::Value representing the serialized model.

Example

use sqlmodel_core::validate::{ModelDump, DumpOptions};

let json = user.model_dump(DumpOptions::default())?;

Provided Methods

fn model_dump_json(&self) -> Result<String, Error>

Serialize a model to a JSON string with default options.

fn model_dump_json_pretty(&self) -> Result<String, Error>

Serialize a model to a pretty-printed JSON string.

fn model_dump_json_with_options( &self, options: DumpOptions, ) -> Result<String, Error>

Serialize a model to a JSON string with full options support.

This method supports all DumpOptions including the indent option:

• indent: None - compact JSON output
• indent: Some(n) - pretty-printed with n spaces indentation

Example

use sqlmodel_core::validate::{ModelDump, DumpOptions};

// Compact JSON with exclusions
let json = user.model_dump_json_with_options(
    DumpOptions::default().exclude(["password"])
)?;

// Pretty-printed with 4-space indent
let json = user.model_dump_json_with_options(
    DumpOptions::default().indent(4)
)?;
