Using float converters on integer values
In its current implementation, the crawler is unable to assign a float value to a property if the value in the crawled data is given as int.
Consider the following cfood snippet
DictTest:
type: Dict
match: "(.*)"
records:
TestRec:
parents:
- TestRec
subtree:
float_element:
type: DictFloatElement
match_name: float_value
match_value: "(?P<float_value>.*)"
records:
TestRec:
float_prop: $float_value
and the dictionary to be crawled
test_dict = {
float_value: 4
}
After crawling, TestRec
will not be assigned a float_prop
property since the integer value is never matched. If we use
test_dict2 = {
float_value: 4.0
}
instead, the correct value is assigned.
