Save file fails with some [var] contents

Closed this issue · 0 comments

Saving a [var] attempts to serialize the current contents to JSON. Some values can't be serialized without help.

Alternatives:

  • Don't save the value. Saving it is usually a distraction, since the state of the patch can be surprisingly different from what you expect
  • Extend the serializer to work better for unserializable types
  • Attempt to save, catch exceptions, don't error out if a value can't be serialized.
