Normal Description of problem:
When the release field in a ClusterServiceVersion spec is specified as a numeric value (e.g., 0.20250104), "opm render" returns a JSON unmarshal error. The GetRelease() function in pkg/registry/csv.go attempts to unmarshal the JSON value directly into a string type variable. When the release is a numeric value, it is parsed as a float rather than a string, causing a type mismatch error.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xzha@xzha1-mac operator-registry % opm version
Version: version.Version{OpmVersion:"v1.63.0-1-g9fa4d9b6", GitCommit:"9fa4d9b6", BuildDate:"2026-02-05T03:20:55Z", GoOs:"darwin", GoArch:"arm64"}
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a CSV with a numeric release field in the spec
version: 1.0.1
release: 20250104
2. run opm render
xzha@xzha1-mac operator-registry % opm render quay.io/olmqe/nginxolm-operator-bundle:1.0.1-20250104-nginxolm87307 -o yaml
2026/02/05 14:42:52 render reference "quay.io/olmqe/nginxolm-operator-bundle:1.0.1-20250104-nginxolm87307": failed to derive properties: json: cannot unmarshal number into Go value of type string
3.
Actual results:
xzha@xzha1-mac operator-registry % opm render quay.io/olmqe/nginxolm-operator-bundle:1.0.1-20250104-nginxolm87307 -o yaml 2026/02/05 14:42:52 render reference "quay.io/olmqe/nginxolm-operator-bundle:1.0.1-20250104-nginxolm87307": failed to derive properties: json: cannot unmarshal number into Go value of type string
Expected results:
no such error
