Enable entry of trueValues and falseValues for Boolean values

[Stephen-Gates]

Expected Behaviour

When I choose boolean as a Type, allow me to enter trueValues and falseValues

Current Behaviour

I cannot enter trueValues and falseValues

Your Environment

• Data Curator version 0.3.1
• Operating System macOS Sierra 10.12.6

Sorry @Stephen-Gates
Not sure what you mean. Atm, it just sets type without controlling what you can enter in the spreadsheet.

[Stephen-Gates]

The spec says,

boolean

The field contains boolean (true/false) data.

In the physical representations of data where boolean values are represented with strings, the values set in trueValues and falseValues are to be cast to their logical representation as booleans. trueValues and falseValues are arrays which can be customised to user need. The default values for these are in the additional properties section below.

The boolean field can be customised with these additional properties:

• trueValues: [ "true", "True", "TRUE", "1" ]
• falseValues: [ "false", "False", "FALSE", "0" ]

format: no options (other than the default).

So I assume we need two input fields to accept trueValues and falseValues.

Required when we implement Open Data Package function as the schema may include the trueValues and falseValues option

/remind me to draft the user interface and acceptance tests on 18 April

Thoughts on user interface:

If type is boolean, allow entry of:

• An array of trueValues - default vales are [ "true", "True", "TRUE", "1" ]
• An array of falseValues - default vales are [ "false", "False", "FALSE", "0" ]

On screen help to guide input of values and show default values

Acceptance test

Add input text box showing default values, which user can change.
Ensure this is sent with validation,export, etc.
Put input box between type and format.
