AnySchema

This class represents a schema definition that matches any data type within a validation or serialization framework. It defines a structure for handling generic references and associated metadata while supporting custom serialization configurations.

Attributes

Attribute	Type	Description
type	Literal['any']	Fixed literal value 'any' used to identify this schema type during validation and serialization.
ref	str	A unique string identifier used for referencing this schema in recursive or shared data structures.
metadata	dict[str, Any]	A dictionary of additional configuration data and custom properties used to extend the schema's behavior.
serialization	SerSchema	Configuration settings that define how the data should be transformed into a serialized format.
