Support Plan Language Datatypes in tasks
Issue Type: New Feature New Feature
Assignee: Unassigned
Created: 2019/06/04 10:14 AM
Priority: Normal Normal
Reporter: Alex Dreyer

In many cases it's useful to interact with the plan language datatypes from a task for example to pass Targets to a task or use a task to discover Targets from a task.

  • We should allow the plan language datatypes to be serialized and passed to a task as parameters
  • We should deserialize these objects when returned from a task.
  • The supported task helper libraries should support automatically deserializing these into native objects with plan language methods and attributes exposed
  • We should support using these types in task

Questions:

  • How to balance serialization to limit bloat/size of the object(for example are facts serialized with a target? Is a target serialized with a result?)
  • What does this mean for other UIs?
