Error when using marshmallow_dataclass with attr.s

[csghone]

I am able to use marshmallow_dataclass perfectly when using with dataclasses.dataclass

However, I want to use it with attrs module instead - use the converters/validators functionalities. It works well most of the time. However, I am facing problems when I use marshmallow_dataclass + attrs with inheritance.

Sample code is given below.

• Scenario1 : ENABLE_DC = True, ENABLE_ATTRS = False
  • Works as expected. Validator is inactive
• Scenario2 : ENABLE_DC = True, ENABLE_ATTRS = True
  • Works as expected. Validator also works.
• Scenario3 : ENABLE_DC = False, ENABLE_ATTRS = True
  • Crashes.
  • Fails in B = ClsB.Schema().load({'a': 123, 'b': 'bb', 'c': 4, 'd': "123"})
  • Error: marshmallow.exceptions.ValidationError: {'a': ['Unknown field.'], 'b': ['Unknown field.']}

Questions:

• Is it possible to fix Scenario 3 ?
• Scenario 2 seems to be ok for my requirements. But I am not sure what weird stuff might happen by enabling both dataclasses and attrs together. If you are aware of possible problems I might get into, please let me know.

I have raised this query with attrs as well. https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/1114

I hope the first question is answered by marshmallow_dataclass team and second by the attrs team.
