`transformWrite` fails when `StructType` fields are included in data set in the return object about ent HOT 7 CLOSED

ah, i misunderstood, you're transforming the result. will take a look later at that and try and fix it

from ent.

It happens here:

The struct field value is actually getting JSON stingified

from ent.

Commenting out that format line makes everything work as expected. There is another format call later on in transformFieldValue just after where the error above is being thrown. So maybe that's all the fix that's needed?

from ent.

I can't repro this in my tests in both v0.1.x and v0.2.0

can you give more context? what type of fields? what type of transform?

I'm doing a transformWrite on a create action to transform it into an edit, and passing a new set of data in the returned object. Basically I'm doing a deep-merge on the existing ent and the new data passed into it. One of the fields is defined as:

horses: StructTypeAsList({
  tsType: 'CompetitionEventHorseEntry',
  fields: {
    horseId: UUIDType({
      nullable: true,
      foreignKey: {
        schema: 'Horse',
        column: 'ID',
      },
    }),
    horseName: StringType({
      nullable: true,
      maxLen: 200,
    }),
  },
}),

And when going through the transform, it re-writes it into a JSON string with the DB storage keys instead of the camelCase keys. That then fails the validation later on.

ok, i finally repro. I was returning a Map instead of {} and so I wasn't running into this :(

from ent.

closing this so I can keep track. will be in new versions soon
