Basic usage of convert() to transform between data formats.

Debug

Known issues

deprecatedThe library is in maintenance mode and no longer actively developed. Future Python versions (e.g., 3.12+) may break due to missing updates.

fix

Consider migrating to modern alternatives like pydantic or json.dumps for simple cases.

affects: >=2021.0.0

gotchaThe convert() function may not handle all edge cases (e.g., nested custom objects). It is designed for simple types.

fix

Test your specific data shapes thoroughly before relying on interchange in production.

affects: all

gotchaThe library does not support Python 3.10+ officially; it was last tested on Python 3.8.

fix

Use a virtual environment with Python 3.8 or 3.9 if you must use this library.
