fmeobjects.FMEPipe.getTraitNullMissingAndType

FMEPipe.getTraitNullMissingAndType(traitName)

This method returns a tuple of a boolean, indicating if the trait is null, a boolean, indicating if the trait is missing, and an integer representing the type of the trait. The first boolean is True if ‘traitName’ maps to a null trait value on the geometry. Otherwise it is False. The second boolean is True if ‘traitName’ maps to a no value on the geometry. Otherwise it is False. If the trait is absent, FME_ATTR_UNDEFINED is returned for the type.

The possible trait types are FME_ATTR_UNDEFINED, FME_ATTR_BOOLEAN, FME_ATTR_INT8, FME_ATTR_UINT8, FME_ATTR_INT16, FME_ATTR_UINT16, FME_ATTR_INT32, FME_ATTR_UINT32, FME_ATTR_REAL32, FME_ATTR_REAL64, FME_ATTR_REAL80, FME_ATTR_STRING, FME_ATTR_ENCODED_STRING, FME_ATTR_INT64, FME_ATTR_UINT64.

Parameters:

traitName (str) – The trait’s name.

Return type:

tuple[bool, bool, int]

Returns:

A tuple of 2 boolean values the first indicating whether or not the value of the trait is null, the second indicating whether or not the trait is missing, and an integer representing the trait type.
