Summary

This fixes the first problem mentioned in #130 (moved) . The second one is going to be mended in caosdb-pylib!155 (merged) .

This fix essentially adds data types (and additional attributes) to properties that are part of record types. Otherwise comparisons of loaded data models with existing data models fail, because the lack of a data type is detected as a difference.

Focus

Please check:

• Does have the addition of these attributes have an unwanted side effect?
• Have all relevant attributes been added?
• Is test coverage complete?

Test Environment

There is a comprehensive unit test.

You can test whether it actually fixes the problem by:

• Commenting out lines 346-373 in parser.py (caosdb-advanced-user-tools/src/caosadvancedtools/models/parser.py)
• Running pytest unittests/test_yaml_model_parser.py -k test_comparison
