What's the problem? =================== TL;DR: When the user enters an incorrect default value, its corresponding param-input will disappear When creating a parameter from SQL, we perform cast_to_ruby, which means that if the default value given by the user is invalid, the entire parameter will not be added to the param_list of the query. This behavior is very confusing, and users will not understand why an incorrect initial value will cause the param-input to disappear. What's the fix? ================ The cast_to_ruby process is canceled in create_from_sql, so that param-input with incorrect default value will still be displayed. We have a simple validation process on the front end, which is enough to prompt whether some default inputs are incorrect.
