Support date only type #89
Description
Activity
Alternatively, if a type is generated as "type": "string", and some unknown "format", it should at least type as a string rather than erroring.
raise TypeError(f"Unknown type: {schema.type}") TypeError: Unknown type: DataType.STRING make: *** [makefile:11: generate-sdk] Error 1- added a commit that references this issue
on Oct 27, 2025 ✅ Implemented in PR #122
Date-only type support has been added! String fields with
format: "date"now generatedatetime.datetype.Usage
OpenAPI Spec:
{ "birth_date": { "type": "string", "format": "date" } }Generated Code:
from datetime import date class Person(BaseModel): birth_date: date
Requirements
- Requires
use_orjson=Truewhen generating code (same as other format conversions like UUID and datetime) - Falls back to
strtype when orjson is disabled
Implementation
The feature leverages the refactored
_handle_format_conversions()function from #98, making it a clean 9-line addition in a single location.Testing
- ✅
test_date_format_generates_date_type: Verifies proper date type generation - ✅
test_date_format_without_orjson: Verifies str fallback behavior - ✅ All 252 tests pass
The feature will be available once PR #122 is merged.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When I am creating fields with type string, and format "date" I would like them to be typed as python
datetime.dateDescribe the solution you'd like
Logic in type_converter when, with orjson enabled, types are generated as "datetime.date".
Describe alternatives you've considered
Potentially some other hooks or injectable logic inside type_converter that could allow a developer to inject or otherwise override type generation. This could be some kind of type registry.
Additional context
I am generating schema for date types that do not have time component, and would be incorrect to use datetime type.
