This is how I'm trying to allow a nil value for an array of hashes (I'm using dry-validations gem)
required(:properties).maybe(:array).each(:hash)
This is raising the following exception:
NoMethodError: undefined method `map' for nil:NilClass
from /Users/svelandiag/.rbenv/versions/2.6.6/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0/gems/dry-logic-1.2.0/lib/dry/logic/operations/each.rb:15:in `call'
How to allow a nil value in this case?
Well it actually took me a bit of time, but the answer seems to be here https://dry-rb.org/gems/dry-schema/1.9/basics/macros/#maybe
You cannot use maybe with each, you should do this instead:
required(:properties).maybe(:array) do
nil? | each(:hash)
end
It took me a decent amount of time to find the answer since I was looking at the "Nested Data" section within dry-schema docs, I would suggest that if some contributor of the project is seeing this, please add a similar section to explain that maybe and each are not compatible in the "Nested Data" section of the dry-schema docs https://dry-rb.org/gems/dry-schema/1.9/nested-data/
