Queries regarding `UpdateSchemaInternalType` & `DeleteSchemaType`

[jd-solanki]

Describe the bug or question Hi 👋🏻

First of all great library. I wanted to create something like this and it already exist 😅

I already have similar approach in my previous project but as you also provide great filtering & sorting out of the box I would like to give it a try.

Question: I was migrating from my own CRUD to FastCRUD and realized there's two new schemas UpdateSchemaInternalType & DeleteSchemaType. I wanted to know why those two exist?

• UpdateSchemaInternalType: I searched the docs & also checked the source but schema isn't used anywher, Am I right? If yes, Should we remove it from passing it for static typing?
• DeleteSchemaType: Most of the time this is not required and also in source code I can see it's just inheriting the BaseModel so should we also remove it? Moreover, I'm not aware of whole code strcuture but I noticed there's conditional addition of delete endpoint based on this schema I guess.

To Reproduce n/a

Additional context How's your plan for improving types for filtering because after reading docs it looks like FilterConfig is not type safe 🤔

Hey, @jd-solanki, nice to know you like it!

Some of it is because of how FastCRUD evolved, it started inside of fastapi boilerplate, back when it was still a CRUDBase, and the idea of an internal update schema came from this:

class UserUpdateInternal(UserUpdate):
    updated_at: datetime

Theoretically, if you passed an UpdateInternalType, the updated_at column should be modified.

The point of the DeleteSchema is the same, but it kind of evolved from if passing a DeleteSchema to if has an is_deleted attribute.

So basically, you may open a PR or discussion about removing this things and we can discuss it.

About this, we are basically fixing things as they come (specially if they are more urgent). Since at the moment more is coming up than we can fix, not a lot of future planning going on.

You can always open PRs fixing stuff though, we'll be really happy
