-----------------------------------
Summary: Beam Row Avro conversion: fixed and bytes decimals
Key: BEAM-12877
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-12877
Project: Beam
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: sdk-java-core
Affects Versions: 2.32.0
Reporter: Koen Egelink
An Avro decimal logical type annotates Avro bytes or fixed types.
Current Row to Avro conversion is limited to bytes type and in addition
hardcodes precision to MAX_INT and scale to 0.
I have attached a patch that adds support for decimal bytes and fixed types.
I could think of 2 possible ways to solve this:
# Change Row decimal type to a logical type
# Use Beam field options to pass additional metadata required to serialize
decimals
I felt that overhauling Beam schema types might not be a good idea. Instead I
went with option 2.
Passes ./gradlew check
