## Dataclasses em `response_model`

Você também pode usar `dataclasses` no parâmetro `response_model`:

{* ../../docs_src/dataclasses/tutorial002.py hl[1,7:13,19] *}

A dataclass será automaticamente convertida para uma dataclass Pydantic.

Dessa forma, seu esquema aparecerá na interface de documentação da API:

## Dataclasses em Estruturas de Dados Aninhadas

For example, you cannot put a Pydantic model in a `JSONResponse` without first converting it to a `dict` with all the data types (like `datetime`, `UUID`, etc) converted to JSON-compatible types.

For those cases, you can use the `jsonable_encoder` to convert your data before passing it to a response:

Por exemplo, ele não recebe objetos `datetime`, pois estes objetos não são compatíveis com JSON.

Então, um objeto `datetime` teria que ser convertido em um `str` contendo os dados no formato  <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601" class="external-link" target="_blank">ISO</a>.

Da mesma forma, este banco de dados não receberia um modelo Pydantic (um objeto com atributos), apenas um `dict`.

It would also mean that if you get data from the `Request` object directly (for example, read the body) it won't be validated, converted or documented (with OpenAPI, for the automatic API user interface) by FastAPI.

Although any other parameter declared normally (for example, the body with a Pydantic model) would still be validated, converted, annotated, etc.

But there are specific cases where it's useful to get the `Request` object.
