----------------------------------
Summary: Support forcing varchar type in Json format
Key: FLINK-18002
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-18002
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Formats (JSON, Avro, Parquet, ORC, SequenceFile)
Reporter: Benchao Li
Currently in json format, if the field type is varchar, we will call
`JsonNode.asText()` which we always assumes the JsonNode is a TextNode.
However, in many cases, we want to force it as varchar for other types, etc
ObjectNode. We should use `JsonNode.toString()` for other JsonNode instead of
`JsonNode.asText()`.
