schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:21 PMgo on - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:21 PMwell, we need to validate yaml - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:21 PMyaml has a strict list of typse - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:21 PMwe need to know how thing should be represented in yaml - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:21 PMso that we can validate it - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:22 PMcan you give me a concrete example - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:22 PMeg path - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:22 PMis a custom type - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:22 PMah - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:22 PMthat serializes to string - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:22 PMwe can't run python code on client - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:22 PMlol it's so funny how this is literally GraphQL custom scalars with exactly same problems - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:22 PMi’ve learned nothing - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:22 PM😄 - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:23 PMwhat are the exact semantics you want - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:23 PMjust "how this type should be entered inside the yaml config" - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:24 PMat the end we can't really validate it without sending it to server - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:24 PMmaybe we should just validate it by sending it to server - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:24 PMyes, we should - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:24 PMhmmmm - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:24 PMwell - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:24 PMyeah - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:24 PMI'll validate that yaml is well formed, otherwise I'll validate it on server - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:24 PMthat would certainly be most in the spirit of “a type is just backed by arbitrary compute” - f
freiksenet
11/14/2018, 12:24 PMyeah - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:24 PMthe other option - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:25 PMwould be to treat Path as another built-in type - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:25 PMand explicitly define its semantics - s
schrockn
11/14/2018, 12:25 PMe.g. it’s so essential that it should go into the Dagster/Coup D’ata standard
