-----------------------------------
Summary: Better Json serialization for Avro decimal logical types?
Key: AVRO-1950
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1950
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Zoltan Farkas
Priority: Minor
Currently as I understand decimal logical types are encoded on top of bytes and
fixed avro types. This makes them a bit "unnatural" in the json encoding...
I worked around a hack in my fork to naturally encode them into json decimals.
A good starting point to look at is in:
https://github.com/zolyfarkas/avro/blob/trunk/lang/java/avro/src/main/java/org/apache/avro/io/DecimalEncoder.java
My approach is a bit hacky, so I would be interested in suggestions to have
this closer to something we can integrate into avro...
