rendercv.data.models

The rendercv.data.models package contains all the Pydantic data models, validators, and computed fields that are used in RenderCV. The package is divided into several modules, each containing a different group of data models.

  • base.py: Contains RenderCVBaseModel, which is the parent class of all the data models in RenderCV.
  • computers.py: Contains all the functions that are used to compute some values of the fields in the data models. For example, converting ISO dates to human-readable dates.
  • entry_types.py: Contains all the data models that are used to represent the entries in the CV.
  • curriculum_vitae.py: Contains the CurriculumVitae data model, which is the main data model that contains all the content of the CV.
  • design.py: Contains the data model that is used to represent the design options of the CV.
  • locale_catalog.py: Contains the data model that is used to represent the locale catalog of the CV.
  • rendercv_settings.py: Contains the data model that is used to represent the settings of the RenderCV.
  • rendercv_data_model.py: Contains the RenderCVDataModel data model, which is the main data model that defines the whole input file structure.
