Issue #3785
Updated by dkliban@redhat.com almost 5 years ago
In https://github.com/pulp/pulp/pull/3531 we added extra validation such that if extra parameters that are not defined are passed to the serializer, it will raise a `serializers.ValidationError`. The For plugin API documentation is missing a description for ModelSerializer.validate()[0]. Plugin writers would benefit to get the same validation when inheriting from knowing the type `base.ModelSerializer` they will have to call `super().validate(data)` from their serializer, or if they inherit from a serializer that isn't a subclass of validation provided by pulpcore. [0] https://docs.pulpproject.org/en/pulpcore-plugin/nightly/api-reference/serializers.html#pulpcore.plugin.serializers.ModelSerializer.validate `base.ModelSerializer` they can call `base.validate_unknown_fields(initial_data, defined_fields)` themselves.
