Initial Checks

  • I confirm that I'm using Pydantic V2

Description

Setting the serialize_as_any parameter for the BaseModel.model_dump[_xxx]() methods to True causes an error to be thrown on all models that have a recursive attribute /type/, even if they do not have a recursive /value/.

The SerializeAsAny annotation continues to work fine, but the dump call still fails if the keyword is specified.

This kw param was introduced in 2.7, so it didn't exist in 2.6. I have tested with 2.7.0 - 2.7.4, all have the same problem.

In the example below, all four fail with a ValueError: Circular reference detected (id repeated), e.g.:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/mjog/project/test.py", line 24, in <module>
    print(Model1(recursive = None).model_dump(serialize_as_any = True))
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "/home/mjog/.cache/pypoetry/virtualenvs/project-HUCGNwqs-py3.12/lib/python3.12/site-packages/pydantic/main.py", line 328, in model_dump
    return self.__pydantic_serializer__.to_python(
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ValueError: Circular reference detected (id repeated)

Example Code

from __future__ import annotations

import traceback

import pydantic

class Model1(pydantic.BaseModel):

    recursive: Model1 | None

class Model2(pydantic.BaseModel):

    recursive: pydantic.SerializeAsAny[Model2] | None

# All work fine:
print(Model1(recursive = None).model_dump())
print(Model1(recursive = None).model_dump_json())
print(Model2(recursive = None).model_dump())
print(Model2(recursive = None).model_dump_json())

# All fail:
try:
    print(Model1(recursive = None).model_dump(serialize_as_any = True))
except:
    traceback.print_exc()

try:
    print(Model1(recursive = None).model_dump_json(serialize_as_any = True))
except:
    traceback.print_exc()

try:
    print(Model2(recursive = None).model_dump(serialize_as_any = True))
except:
    traceback.print_exc()

try:
    print(Model2(recursive = None).model_dump_json(serialize_as_any = True))
except:
    traceback.print_exc()

NB calling BaseModel.model_rebuild() on the models above does not help.

@mjog,

Thanks for reporting this. Definitely looks like a bug. I'm adding this to our v2.9.0 milestone!

We ran into this recently while migrating to the serialize_as_any flag. Excited that a fix is in the works, thanks @nix010!
