Marshmallow

++++++++++++++++++

* An object's ``__marshallable__`` method, if defined, takes precedence over ``__getitem__``.
* Generator expressions can be passed to a serializer.
* Better support for serializing list-like collections (e.g. ORM querysets).
* Other minor bugfixes.

++++++++++++++++++

* Add ``additional`` `class Meta` option.
* Add ``dateformat`` `class Meta` option.
* Support for serializing UUID, date, time, and timedelta objects.
* Remove ``Serializer.to_data`` method. Just use ``Serialize.data`` property.
* String field defaults to empty string instead of ``None``.
* *Backwards-incompatible*: ``isoformat`` and ``rfcformat`` functions moved to utils.py.
* *Backwards-incompatible*: Validation functions moved to validate.py.
* *Backwards-incompatible*: Remove types.py.
* Reorder parameters to ``DateTime`` field (first parameter is dateformat).
* Ensure that ``to_json`` returns bytestrings.
* Fix bug with including an object property in ``fields`` Meta option.
* Fix bug with passing ``None`` to a serializer.

++++++++++++++++++

* Fix bug with serializing dictionaries.
* Fix error raised when serializing empty list.
* Add ``only`` and ``exclude`` parameters to Serializer constructor.
* Add ``strict`` parameter and option: causes Serializer to raise an error if invalid data are passed in, rather than storing errors.
* Updated Flask + SQLA example in docs.

++++++++++++++++++

* Declaring Serializers just got easier. The ``class Meta`` paradigm allows you to specify fields more concisely. Can specify ``fields`` and ``exclude`` options.
* Allow date formats to be changed by passing ``format`` parameter to ``DateTime`` field constructor. Can either be ``"rfc"`` (default), ``"iso"``, or a date format string.
* More useful error message when declaring fields as classes (instead of an instance, which is the correct usage).
* Rename ``MarshallingException`` -> ``MarshallingError``.
* Rename ``marshmallow.core`` -> ``marshmallow.serializer``.

++++++++++++++++++

* Allow prefixing field names.
* Fix storing errors on Nested Serializers.
* Python 2.6 support.

++++++++++++++++++

* Field-level validation.
* Add ``fields.Method``.
* Add ``fields.Function``.
* Allow binding of extra data to a serialized object by passing the ``extra`` param when initializing a ``Serializer``.
* Add ``relative`` parameter to ``fields.Url`` that allows for relative URLs.
