SublayerOverride

Per-sublayer style override for a single basemap sublayer.

All fields are nullable — a None value means “use the basemap default”. Only #RRGGBB hex strings are accepted for color fields; None means the basemap default color is preserved. Numeric ranges are clamped at validation time (Pydantic ge/le constraints).

The key set of BasemapConfig.sublayer_overrides is treated as opaque (forward-compatible with future sublayer IDs).

Security: extra=“forbid” locks the scope guardrail: unknown style axes such as dash patterns, line caps, halo blur, and text-font are rejected at validation time.
