User datatypes

Custom datatype

For custom datatype we support the import mapping for known fields. These known fields are fields for which a mapping is defined in the plugin's manifest.yml.

custom_types:
    example:
        mapping:
            mytext:
                type: text
            mynumber:
                type: number

In this example the subfield mytext and mynumber are imported for metadata imports.

The full custom data is also supported if the full JSON is provided during the import.

For export mapping FYLR supports all import fields as well as the subfield _standard to output the standard info of the custom data.

A list of all available subfield names for a specific instance can be found in /inspect/datamodel.
