Error with date-time in response

[alandotcom]

After generating a template for a controller action (and tests passing), I run the specs again. I have some JSON keys 'created-at' and 'updated-at' that point to date-time strings. Fdoc is is giving an error for one of these fields.

I can confirm that the string is in the ISO8601 format. I parsed the response, converted the string to a DateTime object, then back to ISO8601 format and it's the same exact string I started with.

JSON::Schema::ValidationError:
       The property '#/product-permissions/0/created-at' must be a date/time in the ISO-8601 format of YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ or YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.ssZ in schema ae989cdc-e527-5940-9752-73dbd0160fee#

Can you please provide a small minimal example of a spec file and a .fdoc file?

I ran into similar issue when mocking my response with DateTime. Apparently iso8601 on DateTime does not format UTC with a 'Z'. You can use ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone instead.

require 'active_support/core_ext'
 => true

ActiveSupport.use_standard_json_time_format
 => true

DateTime.new(2013, 5, 28).to_json
 => ""2013-05-28T00:00:00+00:00""

DateTime.new(2013, 5, 28).in_time_zone('UTC').to_json
 => "\"2013-05-28T00:00:00Z\""

ActiveSupport.use_standard_json_time_format = false
 => false

DateTime.new(2013, 5, 28).in_time_zone('UTC').to_json
 => "\"2013/05/28 00:00:00 +0000\""

[zachmargolis]

Maybe you need to explicitly .iso8601 in your app?

require 'active_support/core_ext'
> DateTime.new(2013, 5, 28).in_time_zone('UTC').iso8601
 => "2013-05-28T00:00:00Z" 

[rorcraft]

ActiveSupport.use_standard_json_time_format is true by default.
If it is false, you'll need to call iso8601
But you need to convert it to TimeWithZone because iso8601 on DateTime doesn't replace UTC with 'Z'

DateTime.new(2013, 5, 28).iso8601
 => ""2013-05-28T00:00:00+00:00""

I would try seeing if this worked, but getting another error now:

undefined method `each' for "???":String

This happens after generating the fdoc, then running the test again

I ran in exactly the same problem.

Here is my .fdoc

                    example: '2014-10-24T10:29:00+02:00'

And here is a sample response which is considered to be invalid on date:

[{
    "facility": {
        "id": 852,
        "description": "RESIDENZIALE"
    },
    "guests_movements": [{
        "guest_id": 1650,
        "movements": [{
            "date": "2014-10-24T10:29:00+02:00"
        }, {
            "date": "2014-10-25T10:59:00+02:00"
        }]
    }, {
        "guest_id": 5414,
        "movements": [{
            "date": "2014-10-03T11:12:00+02:00"
        }, {
            "date": "2014-10-03T11:12:00+02:00"
        }]
    }]
}]

The date is valid and validates ok if I try to put it as the only property of the response.

The problem seems related to the position of the date attribute.

Moreover, if I run the spec with scaffolding on (FDOC_SCAFFOLD=true) the field is recognised as format: date-time.

[sromano]

This will get fixed if you update json-schema in gemspec to >= 2.5.0 per this change
voxpupuli/json-schema@4e84940

[sromano]

You might want to look at this changeset sromano@70f5ac3

[knightq]

Unfortunately, this commit 2e5f93a makes the update of json-schema infeasible.

Any chance to get this fixes?
