Show HN: Prisma Python – A fully typed ORM for Python

The most obvious way would be to simply annotate the fields, e.g.

  class Book(MonDoc):
    title: str = StrField()
    yearPublished: int = IntField()

If this means too much redundant information for you then you could try defining the fields to return the corresponding python type e.g.

  def IntField() -> int:
    ...

I could certainly annotate the fields like you suggest. But that goes against the spirit of Bozen which is DRY.

When I define something as a `StrField` I'm already saying it's a string, so I shouldn't have to say it again elsewhere. It would be nice if Python has an API such that I can write code within my `StrField` class that tells python that `title` is a `str`, but to the best of my understanding this doesn't exist.
