class Field(FieldABC):
    """Basic field from which other fields should extend. It applies no
    formatting by default, and should only be used in cases where
    data does not need to be formatted before being serialized or deserialized.
    On error, the name of the field will be returned.

    :param default: If set, this value will be used during serialization if the input value
        is missing. If not set, the field will be excluded from the serialized output if the
        input value is missing. May be a value or a callable.
    :param missing: Default deserialization value for the field if the field is not
        found in the input data. May be a value or a callable.
    :param str data_key: The name of the dict key in the external representation, i.e.
        the input of `load` and the output of `dump`.
        If `None`, the key will match the name of the field.
    :param str attribute: The name of the attribute to get the value from when serializing.
        If `None`, assumes the attribute has the same name as the field.
        Note: This should only be used for very specific use cases such as
        outputting multiple fields for a single attribute. In most cases,
        you should use ``data_key`` instead.
    :param callable validate: Validator or collection of validators that are called
        during deserialization. Validator takes a field's input value as
        its only parameter and returns a boolean.
        If it returns `False`, an :exc:`ValidationError` is raised.
    :param required: Raise a :exc:`ValidationError` if the field value
        is not supplied during deserialization.
    :param allow_none: Set this to `True` if `None` should be considered a valid value during
        validation/deserialization. If ``missing=None`` and ``allow_none`` is unset,
        will default to ``True``. Otherwise, the default is ``False``.
    :param bool load_only: If `True` skip this field during serialization, otherwise
        its value will be present in the serialized data.
    :param bool dump_only: If `True` skip this field during deserialization, otherwise
        its value will be present in the deserialized object. In the context of an
        HTTP API, this effectively marks the field as "read-only".
    :param dict error_messages: Overrides for `Field.default_error_messages`.
    :param metadata: Extra arguments to be stored as metadata.

    .. versionchanged:: 2.0.0
        Removed `error` parameter. Use ``error_messages`` instead.

    .. versionchanged:: 2.0.0
        Added `allow_none` parameter, which makes validation/deserialization of `None`
        consistent across fields.

    .. versionchanged:: 2.0.0
        Added `load_only` and `dump_only` parameters, which allow field skipping
        during the (de)serialization process.

    .. versionchanged:: 2.0.0
        Added `missing` parameter, which indicates the value for a field if the field
        is not found during deserialization.

    .. versionchanged:: 2.0.0
        ``default`` value is only used if explicitly set. Otherwise, missing values
        inputs are excluded from serialized output.

    .. versionchanged:: 3.0.0b8
        Add ``data_key`` parameter for the specifying the key in the input and
        output data. This parameter replaced both ``load_from`` and ``dump_to``.

        This field serializes to a `decimal.Decimal` object by default. If you need

        to a `decimal.Decimal` object. The default `__str__` implementation of the
        built-in Python `float` type may apply a destructive transformation upon
        its input data and therefore cannot be relied upon to preserve precision.
