Bug: default not generated for query parameter in openapi spec. about litestar HOT 9 CLOSED

Just leaving this here in case you need a workaround. You can use Annotated[int, Parameter(default=12)] to get the behavior you expect.

from typing_extensions import Annotated
from litestar import Litestar, get
from litestar.params import Parameter

@get(path="query_default")
async def query_default(foo: Annotated[int, Parameter(default=12)]) -> None:
    return

app = Litestar(route_handlers=[query_default])

from litestar.

Could you confirm that this is also true in 2.7.0?

Same result with fixed version 2.7.0

dependencies = [
    "litestar[standard]==2.7.0"
]

Thanks!

I don't think this is a bug. The specification doesn't have a field to indicate a default value for parameters.

Sorry about that. I was completely wrong. While it's correct that the parameter object as per the spec doesn't allow for defaults, it does allow for a schema which can have a default value.

Us not parsing the default properly is a bug.

Thanks for the workaround. I added the working schema snippet for completeness
