Feature Request

Please complete:

  • OS: Ubuntu 16.04
  • Python version import sys; print(sys.version): 3.7.3
  • Pydantic version import pydantic; print(pydantic.VERSION): 0.32.1

When creating a pydantic dataclass that has a FrozenSet member, initialization fails in the @dataclass decorator.

For example,

from typing import FrozenSet

from pydantic.dataclasses import dataclass

@dataclass
class MyDataClass:
    foo: FrozenSet[str]
...

will fail with an assertion error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
  File "pydantic/dataclasses.py", line 125, in pydantic.dataclasses.dataclass.wrap
  File "pydantic/dataclasses.py", line 87, in pydantic.dataclasses._process_class
  File "pydantic/main.py", line 710, in pydantic.main.create_model

  File "pydantic/fields.py", line 252, in pydantic.fields.Field._populate_sub_fields
AssertionError

Looking in the pydantic source code, it looks like this has to do with how it determines the type of the field. Specifically, the issue is that FrozenSet, somewhat counter-intuitively, does not appear to be a subtype of Set:

>>> from typing import FrozenSet, Set
>>> issubclass(FrozenSet, Set)
False 

It looks like this if-else block has to be amended with a specific case for FrozenSet.

This is not a bug, but a feature request to support the typing type FrozenSet which I'd be happy to do. It should accept or convert iterables to frozenset not set.

We should also improve the error handling to explain what's going on.

FrozenSet won't be a subtype of set since it's a typing object and as an object doesn't behave anything like a set. Same as List isn't a subtype of list.

PR welcome, but probably won't be merged until v1.1.

Fixes pydantic#745

Add a better error message for fields with types from the typing
module that are not directly supported by Pydantic. Previously,
it caused a cryptic assertion failure.
