@MarshalX alright I have

• updated the docstrings to follow google convention
• added a string_formats.md (let me know what you think!)
• explored the weird <locals>.wrapper rendering a bit more

on the last point, the best way I could immediately find to deal with this was to switch to using @wraps(validate_fn) in only_validate_if_strict, since that properly handles carrying metadata without manually patching __doc__ or __name__. However, as a consequence this forces me to update each validator signature to at least (v: str, _: ValidationInfo). With this in place, we see a more reasonable rendering

while the address present is midly annoying to me, showing the function name makes some sense to me as the constraint really is arbitrary logic that may exist in that function. let me know if you see a more reasonable path forward on this!

string_formats.md is amazing! well done!

i dig into the problem around rendering of validators. the answer is simple: the lib which we use to autodoc pydantic models simply does not support it.

so i've added a hacky quick win to be able to merge it:

great @MarshalX ! sounds good

@zzstoatzz i fixed some stuff; pls check and confirm is all good

thank you!
