Matthew Rutkowski commented on TOSCA-231:
------------------------------------------
Recall that we allow any number of spaces between the scalar and unit so token function will still be an issue perhaps.
> Scalar units and get_property

> Key: TOSCA-231
> URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/TOSCA-231
> Project: OASIS Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications (TOSCA) TC
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Profile-YAML
> Reporter: Luc Boutier

> Currently in the spec we manage all the scalar units as others values and I believe that a get_property usage on a scalar unit will return a scalar unit to the script e.g. 1 Gb, 1 MHz.
> I wonder if it won't be easier for users if the orchestrator have the responsibility of scalar unit parsing and provides value as a scalar using a defined root unit (B, ms, Hz)
> If not this means that any script that uses scalar unit will have to mange parsing by itself, it may not be very complicated but as a user I feel that it's always better when you don't have to manage it.
> What do you think ?
