Fokko opened a new issue, #8248:
URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/8248
### Feature Request / Improvement
Currently, we represent a UUID literal as `UUIDLiteral[Literal[UUID]]`, but
we want to change this to `UUIDLiteral[Literal[bytes]]`.
Probably currently also tables that are partitioned by UUIDs will fail,
because the comparison will be between an UUID and bytes.
What we can do, is create a table using PyIceberg:
```python
from pyiceberg.catalog import load_catalog
from pyiceberg.schema import Schema
from pyiceberg.types import UUIDType, NestedField
schema = Schema(
NestedField(
field_id=1, name="c1", field_type=UUIDType(), required=False
),
)
cat.create_table(
identifier="default.uuid",
schema=schema
)
```
And then add some data:
```sql
insert into uuid VALUES('102cb62f-e6f8-4eb0-9973-d9b012ff0967');
```
Would also be great to have tests around partitioned tables, but it looks
like that's not possible today: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/8247
cc @JonasJ-ap @HonahX I know that you were looking into this as well.
