Switches field serialization to default to
null
when a value is absent e.g. when a django relation is missing.Marshmallow defaults to removing keys entirely when this happens, which creates quirky APIs that sometimes omit keys.
This patches the
dump_default
value of marshmallow fields so the functionality comes through for all supported fields.
