Hi,
Assume v0 schema is:
{"namespace": "example.avro",
"type": "record",
"name": "User",
"fields": [
{"name": "name", "type": "string"},
{"name": "favorite_number", "type": ["int", "null"]},
{"name": "favorite_color", "type": ["string", "null"]}
]
}
And v1 schema is (just added an optional field named age):
{"namespace": "example.avro",
"type": "record",
"name": "User",
"fields": [
{"name": "name", "type": "string"},
{"name": "favorite_number", "type": ["int", "null"]},
{"name": "favorite_color", "type": ["string", "null"]},
{"name": "age", "type": ["int", "null"]}
]
}
I created a table using v1 user schema on an Avro file written with v0 of
the user schema. When running a select * on the table I get an error
Failed with exception java.io.IOException:org.apache.avro.AvroTypeException:
Found {...}
Isn't this a scenario that Avro and by extension the AvroSerde should
support?
