JSON Schema type: ['integer','null'] not supported #292

I have a JSON schema for a field:

  'age': { // age
      title: 'Your age',
      type: ['integer','null'],
      minimum: 1,
      maximum: 120
    }

And alpaca throws the error:
Uncaught Error: Alpaca caught an error with the default error handler: {"message":"Unable to find field class for type: undefined","reason":"FIELD_INSTANTIATION_ERROR"}

Is it possible to support multiple types for a field in Alpaca? I need to be able to support null in an integer field that is required. It's a required field, but null or an integer are valid values.

This isn't supported right now. Would an alternative approach be to support a flag that says "allow null"?

Possibly, but I'd have to see what the implementation would look like in regards to my schema validation on the schema side

Okay. There isn't any plan to support multiple data types per field instance. The alternative mentioned above is a possibility. If you think that's the way to go, please open another ticket with that request. Closing this.
