Invalid paremeter when passing an array
I have this curl.
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"file_server": {"method": "api/file", "parameter": [{"filepath":"tehnnhjhst", "FileBase64String":"test"}]}}' http://localhost:4000/api/some_method
But I got this JSON response:
{"errors":{"parameter":["is invalid"]}}
This is my model
schema "some_method" do
field :method, :string
field :parameter, :string
timestamps()
end
I just wanted to store the array as plain text/string to my MySql database.
Is there parse equivalent to this? or?
Any idea? Thank you.

You’ve defined :parameter as a :string but you’re passing an array, as you state. I would expect there to be an error.
Are you using changesets for your model? They help validate your datatypes with some nice error messages.

Yes im using changesets to my model.
def changeset(struct, params \\ %{}) do
struct
|> cast(params, [:method, :parameter])
|> validate_required([:method, :parameter])
end
So array in :string (varchar(255), utf8_general_ci in my MySql database) is not allowed?

I just hook it in JSON encode.
params = Map.put(params, "parameter", Poison.encode!(params["parameter"])
