csv to json integer parse error using placeholders

Question

so i have one csv file from there i'm parsing data in json, but there is integer conversion issue.

• def foo = '10'

• string json = { bar: '#(1 * foo)' }

• match json == '{"bar":10.0}'

• string json = { bar: '#(parseInt(foo))' }

• match json == '{"bar":10.0}'

so i tried both ways to convert an string into integer but i am getting below error message: "JSON parse error: Cannot deserialize value of type java.lang.Integer from String "(1 * total_amount)": not a valid java.lang.Integer value". And 1000 is the value i'm giving in a csv file.

Above is my pom file.

{ "action": "#(action)", "currency": "#(currency)", "cptrid": "#(cptrid)", "flexi1": "#(flexi1)", "flexi2": "#(flexi2)", "flexi3": "#(flexi3)", "flexi4": "#(flexi4)", "sys_id": "#(sys_id)", "lead_id": "#(lead_id)", "record_id": "#(record_id)", "mode_of_payment": "#(mode_of_payment)", "total_amount": "#(1 * total_amount)", "instrument_ref": "#(instrument_ref)", "instrument_date": "#(instrument_date)", "bank_name": "#(bank_name)", "branch_detls": "#(branch_detls)", "receipt_no": "#(receipt_no)" }

and above is the way i'm using placeholder for total amount.

Answer 1

I ran the following and it worked perfectly in Karate 1.4.1

* def foo = '10'
* string json = { bar: '#(1 * foo)' }
* match json == '{"bar":10}'
* string json = { bar: '#(parseInt(foo))' }
* match json == '{"bar":10}'

You have something else going on then, so follow this process: https://github.com/karatelabs/karate/wiki/How-to-Submit-an-Issue

Answer 2

Feature: Integer parsing feature

  Scenario Outline: Integer parsing scenario
    Given url 'https://reqres.in/api/users'
    And request {"name":'#(name)',"job":'#(parseInt(job))'}
    When method post
    Then status 201

    Examples: 
      | read('classpath:testdata/create_post_testdata.csv').slice(0, 2) |

csv file:

name,job
Json-server1,1
Json-server2,2
