Is Data Type
The Is Data Type Node.
The Is Data Type Node returns true or false depending on whether or not the input matches the
Data Type.
The Is Data Type Node Attributes.
Attribute | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Data Type | Dropdown | The Data Type to compare the input type with. The Node name matches the Data Type, in the example image this is Float. Alternatively, the Data Type can either be Array, Binary, Bool, Byte, Color, Dictionary, Int, String, or any Vector variable. |
Input | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Pulse Input (►) | Pulse | A standard Input Pulse, to trigger the execution of the Node. |
Input | Any | The input Data Type to be compared with. Any is a generic Data Type that every type can be cast to. |
Output | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Pulse Output (►) | Pulse | A standard Output Pulse, to move onto the next Node along the Logic Branch, once this Node has finished its execution. |
Output | Bool | Returns true or false depending on whether or not the input matches the Data Type. |
Is Data Type Node Example Usage.
The Is Data Type Node is useful for checking for correct
Data Types from other sources, such as a parsed JSON file. In the above image, a Float is converted into the generic Any Data Type, to prove that it is indeed a Float. The resulting output will confirm that the Data Type matches the expected Data Type and flow to OnTrue for additional actions.Last modified 25d ago
