Re: [binarycloud-dev] entity definition question

[Alex B. <en...@tu...>]

yes,

I know that looks inconsistent, but it's a function of how metabase does its
schema detinition format.

I like to use only true/false. (thus the <required> value).

Metabase's field defs need
<notnull>1</notnull>
or
<notnull>0</notnull>

so I'm not being schitzo, I'm trying to satisfy metabase while maintaining
standard as best I can :)

btw: true/false is the gold standard everywhere for booleans.
