As far as I can tell, the public usage of SerializationContext occurs exclusively through extensions.
Rather than document
asdf.asdf
(whereSerializationContext
was implemented prior to this PR) which was previously undocumented, this PR movesSerializationContext
toasdf.extension._serialization_context
and exposes it publicly atasdf.extension.SerializationContext
.Code that imports
SerializationContext
fromasdf.asdf
should continue to work (asSerializationContext
is imported inasdf.asdf
) but should be updated to import from the documented public location once this PR makes it into a release.Link to relevant updated docs: https://asdf--1573.org.readthedocs.build/en/1573/api/asdf.extension.SerializationContext.html#asdf.extension.SerializationContext
