Zhijie Shen commented on YARN-3009:
-----------------------------------
bq. but I suspect this is better served instead of key=nested_object as
path/to/attribute=literal_value (or a composition of them) query.
Would you please give an example about "path/to/attribute=literal_value"?
Filter are allows to be the nested JSON content, though usually people doesn't
use it in this fashion. IAC, we still chose to accept an object to be
generalized. For example, the value of primary filter could be a composite:
{{primaryFilter=name:\{"first name":"Chris", "last name" ="Wensel"\}.}}
Personally, I'm a bit reluctant to modifying the behavior of translating the
value to a JSON object, because it may break the compatibility to the existing
Timeline API users. On the other side, we have the walk around to force the
interpreter to treat the value as a string.
> TimelineWebServices always parses primary and secondary filters as numbers if
> first char is a number

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3009
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: timelineserver
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0
> Reporter: Chris K Wensel
> Assignee: Naganarasimha G R

>
> If you pass a filter value that starts with a number (7CCA...), the filter
> value will be parsed into the Number '7' causing the filter to fail the
> search.
> Should be noted the actual value as stored via a PUT operation is properly
> parsed and stored as a String.
> This manifests as a very hard to identify issue with DAGClient in Apache Tez
> and naming dags/vertices with alphanumeric guid values.
