----------------------------------------
Summary: Avro 1.9.1 fails when reading logical types other than
"decimal"
Key: AVRO-2429
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2429
Project: Apache Avro
Issue Type: Bug
Components: python
Affects Versions: 1.9.0
Reporter: Chamikara Jayalath
[https://github.com/apache/avro/pull/82] added support for Avro "decimal"
logical type but also added an assertion that results in a reader failing for
other logical types.
[https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/master/lang/py/src/avro/schema.py#L821]
I believe this is a regression since previously avro library used to read the
underlying primitive type instead of failing.
Can we revert the behavior for logical types that are not "decimal" by removing
this assertion and reverting to the old (avro 1.8.1) behavior of returning the
primitive type ?
