We use issues\r\nfor bug reports and feature requests. Please find us at https://slack.crossplane.io\r\nfor questions, support, and discussion.\r\n--\u003e\r\n\r\n### What problem are you facing?\r\n\u003c!--\r\nPlease tell us a little about your use case - it's okay if it's hypothetical!\r\nLeading with this context helps frame the feature request so we can ensure we\r\nimplement it sensibly.\r\n---\u003e\r\n\r\nWe have two helpers to convert between Python dictionaries and protobuf structs:\r\n\r\n* `resource.struct_to_dict(some_struct)`\r\n* `resource.dict_to_struct(some_dict)`\r\n\r\nI believe these are equivalent to:\r\n\r\n* `google.protobuf.json_format.MessageToDict(some_struct)`\r\n* `google.protobuf.json_format.ParseDict(some_dict, empty_struct)`\r\n\r\n\r\n### How could this Function help solve your problem?\r\n\u003c!--\r\nLet us know how you think this Function could help with your use case. \r\n--\u003e\r\n\r\nI think we should keep our helpers for discoverability/backward compatibility, but have them just use the `json_format` equivalents under the hood.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/negz","@type":"Person","name":"negz"},"datePublished":"2024-11-05T01:14:27.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":2},"url":"https://github.com/108/function-sdk-python/issues/108"}
