How can I use some number type? about graphiti HOT 7 CLOSED

Answered in Slack chat - and fixed! Thanks for raising it @aguirrel

from graphiti.

@richmolj could you post the solution here?
I had to create my own strong_param for floats

from graphiti.

If you upgrade to the latest compliable, you should no longer get an error. The swagger type is :number and the payload type is Float.

How does this work?
I thought default declarations for strong_params where here:
https://github.com/jsonapi-suite/strong_resources/blob/master/lib/strong_resources/configuration.rb

from graphiti.

Yes - the mapping to :number is here so attribute :numbermaps to Parameters.decimal. The payload bit is completely separate and is asserting on the rendered response as Float when running the generator.

Thank you @richmolj
Just in case my case helps someone: I had to use ActionController::Parameters.float because ActionController::Parameters.decimal was not accepting a Ruby's float, I guess it needs a BigDecimal. I do not remember if the error was happening at the controller level or when saving the Active Record model.

Yes, there is an improvement needed here to support both float and decimal. I have this on my list, but happy to merge if youd like to take a crack at a PR
