Cannot append columns with all-`None` values to anything
The following test:
def test_one_row_append(lmdb_version_store_v1):
lib = lmdb_version_store_v1
sym = "test_one_row_append"
df = pd.DataFrame({"col": ["hello"]})
lib.write(sym, df)
df = pd.DataFrame({"col": [None, "hello again"]})
lib.append(sym, df)
df = pd.DataFrame({"col": [None]})
lib.append(sym, df)
fails on the final append
with the exception:
E arcticdb_ext.version_store.StreamDescriptorMismatch: The columns (names and types) in the argument are not identical to that of the existing version: APPEND
E (Showing only the mismatch. Full col list saved in the `last_mismatch_msg` attribute of the lib instance.
E '-' marks columns missing from the argument, '+' for unexpected.)
E -FD<name=col, type=TD<type=UTF_DYNAMIC64, dim=0>>
E +FD<name=col, type=TD<type=EMPTYVAL, dim=0>>
EMPTYVAL
type columns should be appendable to anything.
A similar exception is produced if the strings hello
and hello again
are replaced with numeric values.
