Empty string in database becomes None value in Python

Specifications

• Client Version: 1.34.0
• InfluxDB Version: 2.6.1
• Platform: Linux

Code sample to reproduce problem

import influxdb_client

with influxdb_client.InfluxDBClient(
    org = ...,
    token = ...,
    url = ...,
) as client:
    q = f"""
        from(bucket: ...)
        //|> filter(fn: (r) => exists r._value)
        //|> filter(fn: (r) => r._value != "")
        |> last()
    """
    res = [
        record_it.values
        for table_it in client.query_api().query(q)
        for record_it in table_it.records
    ]
    print(res)

Expected behavior

[{'result': '_result', 'table': 0, '_time': datetime.datetime(2023, 3, 2, 18, 47, 7, 547036, tzinfo=tzutc()), '_value': ''}]

Actual behavior

[{'result': '_result', 'table': 0, '_time': datetime.datetime(2023, 3, 2, 18, 47, 7, 547036, tzinfo=tzutc()), '_value': None}]

Additional info

last() function:

If [_value] column is null in the last record, last() returns the previous record with a non-null value.

My last record with a non-null _value has the empty string for _value.
So far, the row is correctly identified.
But by the time I read _value from the result returned in Python, the record does not hold the empty string "" but None.

I verified that the value of _value is really the empty string in the database and not None by experimenting with filters (see commented code).
I find it more intuitive to leave the empty string as empty string in Python.

Commencez par exécuter la reproduction Python avec la requête Flux indiquée et comparez les valeurs _value attendues et réelles. Suivez la manière dont query_api().query(q) analyse l’enregistrement renvoyé, puis vérifiez qu’une chaîne vide reste "" au lieu de devenir None dans le résultat.
