Intelligent Args Validation

[olttwa]

Issues

Args validation just checks if it is edn serializable. edn serializes anonymous & symbolized functions too, which isn't supported by Goose as they cannot be stored somewhere and retrieved in a different JVM.

Possible solutions:

Try them out, they aren't tested at time of writing

• Check if parents of said object are serializable?
• Define an exhaustive list of allowed types and validate against them
  • Refer https://github.com/ptaoussanis/nippy for the exhaustive list
  • Refer Sidekiq best practices on job params

Since 0.2.0 release, Goose uses taoensso/nippy for de/serializing args.

Nippy is both exhaustive & extensible for this use-case. Closing this issue.
