fix(serialization): keep non-finite numpy and pandas floats JSON-compliant - #15229

…liant _serialize_primitive only matches Python float, so np.float32/np.float16 scalars, numeric arrays and pandas Series values returned NaN/Inf from serialize() and reached strict JSON encoders. Apply the same None replacement to those conversions in both mirrored serializers.
WalkthroughThe serializers now replace non-finite NumPy and pandas values with ChangesSerialization JSON compliance

Changes
serialize()replaces non-finite floats withNone— that is the invariant its own testsdocument (
test_nan_float_serialized_to_none,test_inf_float_serialized_to_none,test_nan_inside_dict_serialized_to_none) and the onesrc/backend/tests/unit/test_messages.py:647relies on when it asserts
json.dumps(..., allow_nan=False)on persisted output.The check lives in
_serialize_primitive, which only matches Pythonfloat, so the two pathsthat convert without going back through it kept leaking:
_serialize_numpy_typereturnedobj.item()/obj.tolist()as they are.np.float64happens to be a
floatsubclass and is caught upstream, butnp.float32andnp.float16are not, so the same value in a narrower dtype came out as
nan/inf._serialize_seriesreads values straight off theSeriesand only truncates them, so itnever reaches the dispatcher — a plain
float64Series with one missing value leaked.This adds
_sanitize_non_finite()and applies it to those two returns in both mirrored copies(
langflow.serialization.serializationandlfx.serialization.serialization). It recurses soarray and list-valued entries are covered, and touches nothing that is not a float:
_serialize_dataframere-entersserialize(), so afloat64column was already clean — but anarrower column reaches it as
np.float32and leaked the same way; both cases are pinned by thenew tests. Finite output is unchanged, including dtypes and truncation behaviour.
Left deliberately out of scope:
_serialize_decimalhas the same gap forDecimal("NaN")/Decimal("Infinity"), but that is what the open #11648 proposes, so this PR stays on thenumpy/pandas paths that PR does not reach.
Fixes #15228
How was this tested?
Added
TestNonFiniteNumpySerializationtosrc/backend/tests/unit/serialization/test_serialization.py. It is parametrized over[langflow, lfx]so both mirrored copies are pinned to the same behaviour — today neither copyhas any test coverage of its own for this, and the langflow copy is the only one the existing
tests exercise.
