Data types need updating in TaxonomySemantic and TaxonomyUnits #48

Closed joelebwf closed 5 years ago

joelebwf commented 5 years ago

Elements structure: abstract should be a boolean. Input values from the taxonomy are "True" and "None" nillable should be a boolean. Input values from the taxonomy are "True" and "None" period_independent should be a boolean. Input values from the taxonomy are "0", "None", "true", and "false". substitution_group is an enumeration (xbrli:item, xlbrldt:dimensionItem, and xblrdt:hypercubeItem). Type_name is complicated and should be dealt with in another issue focused on validation - for the purpose of this issue it can be considered a string. period_type is an enumeration (duration and instant are values). All other fields are strings.

Units structure item_type_date should be a date. Input values from the taxonomy are in yyyy-mm-dd input format. None is also allowed (check with xbrl on why). version_date should be a date. Input values from the taxonomy are in yyy-mm-dd input format. Currently there is no None values. base_standard is a enumeration (Customary, ISO4217, SI, XBLR) status is a enumeration (REC, CR). It might make sense to spell out what these mean. All other fields are strings.

Please note base_standard also has Non-SI
