On-demand feature view cannot handle boolean Pandas native type

[sudohainguyen]

Expected Behavior

After applying some extra transformation steps within on-demand feature view decorator, the returned dataframe as Pandas DataFrame, which contains couple of boolean type columns (not bool). I was expecting type mapping mechanism can internally infer them as bool type also.

Current Behavior

It throws exception right here line 201

Steps to reproduce

• Use on_demand_feature_view
• transform the input dataframe and cast some columns as boolean type
• return immediately
• apply the created on-demand view

Specifications

• Version: 0.27.0
• Platform: Linux/AMD64
• Subsystem: Ubuntu

Possible Solution

Simple add a boolean mapping below this line
