Summary
Adds support for
_ninja_ignore_args
attribute to enable dependency injection patterns in Django Ninja view functions.Problem
When using decorators that inject dependencies as function arguments, Django Ninja tries to process these injected arguments as API parameters, causing them to appear in the OpenAPI schema and parameter validation. This breaks clean dependency injection patterns.
Solution
_ninja_ignore_args
attribute support inViewSignature
processingignore_args()
utility function for convenienceExample Usage
The
service
parameter is injected by the decorator but ignored by Django Ninja's parameter processing.Testing
Added integration test
test_ninja_ignore_args_integration()
that demonstrates the complete flow including dependency injection, runtime functionality, and OpenAPI schema validation.
