[SOLVED] Serde deserialization

[severe yoke]

I have a custom uuid struct:

pub struct Identifier(Uuid);

It implements TryFrom<Uuid> which does some checks, but serde completely ignores it and thus allows invalid uuid's to be created. How can i make it do those checks (without implementing a custom deserializer)?

maybe use #[serde(try_from = "Uuid")]?

yup that worked 👍 thanks
