LGTM

But let's wait a bit before merging, in order not adding more entropy to master until we have reports from CI e2e testing tonight after the merging of the big bunch of code in PR #849

@jason-fox could you have a look an provide feedback on how to fix them, please?

jason-fox · 2020-12-02T13:45:12Z

From the latest ETSI specification:

5.2 Data Types

5.2.1 Introduction

Implementations shall support the data types defined by the clauses below. For each member defined by each data
type (including nested ones) a term shall be added to the Core @context, as mandated by clause 4.5.
None of the members described admit a null value, except when they are used in the context of an update operation
(see clause 5.5.8) and implementations shall raise an error of type BadRequestData if a null value is encountered.

The tests in question are failing with 500 BadRequestData because the input payload to the context broker is invalid.

fgalan · 2020-12-02T14:52:22Z

So maybe the problem is this kind of changes in test/unit/ngs-ld payload files?

What should be used in that case instead of null? In other words, what is the way of NGSI-LD of representing null-ity?

jason-fox · 2020-12-02T16:02:04Z

When sending an undefined value, you need to insert a JSON object which is interpreted as null rather than a null directly. This is defined in entities-NGSI-LD.js here

const NGSI_LD_NULL = { '@type': 'Intangible', '@value': null };

Where Intangible can be defined in the supplied @context as https://schema.org/Intangible if required (it defaults to core of course). This was discussed by @vraybaud in the review of the NGSI-LD code. #849

…te_value_null_instead_blank

AlvaroVega · 2020-12-14T10:44:19Z

IMHO current fails #946 are not related with #946 or at least changed proposed by #946 is not working

fgalan · 2020-12-14T12:37:29Z

At 54ec0b9, using "value": { "@type": "Intangible", "@value": null } test results show:

  874 passing (50s)
  14 pending
  20 failing

At 2db114b, using "value": null test results show:

  890 passing (27s)
  14 pending
  6 failing

So it seems that using the "NGSI-LD null way" test restuls are worse than with just null...

Definitely, we need help from NGSI-LD experts to fix this. @jason-fox could you provide feedback on how to fix this (or even better: a PR with the fix itself using revert-945-revert-942-task/default_attribute_value_null_instead_blank as base branch), please?

jason-fox · 2020-12-14T16:55:38Z

The unexpected side-effect from this change is a change in default truthy-ness of undefined boolean values.

alert(Boolean(true));  // returns true
alert(Boolean(false));  // returns false
alert(Boolean(null)); // returns false
alert(Boolean(' '));  // true

Previously if I had the following

{
  "id": "light1",
  "type": "Light",
  "state": {
    "type": "Boolean",
    "value": " "
  }
}

This is implicitly true

Now I have the following:

{
  "id": "light1",
  "type": "Light",
  "state": {
    "type": "Boolean",
    "value": null
  }
}

But for NGSI-LD as explained, you can't have a value:null and you can only have type=Property or type=Relationship, therefore the provisioned Boolean type must be cast properly before being sent to the context broker. Therefore changing the default value from ' ' to null has changed the calculated boolean values from true to false.

fgalan · 2020-12-16T08:22:50Z

Thanks for the feedback @jason-fox

We think that side-effect would not have any impact on the existing e2e usages of the issue. We are going to merge this PR and we will confirm it after the CI e2e after some hours.
