Reuben van Ammers updated BEAM-10220:
-
Description:
Currently, RowJson.java doesn't have support for deserialising JSON with
fields missing - it fails, even if the beam schema is nullable. This is often a
problem for reading JSON as nulls are very commonly represented by omitting the
field. Additionally, for this reason, not writing nulls is a reasonable when
converting from Beam rows to JSON.
This would help to allow https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-7624 to be
implemented.
