[GitHub] [beam] damccorm opened a new issue, #21226: Beam Row Avro conversion: fixed and bytes decimals

[GitBox <gi...@apache.org>]

damccorm opened a new issue, #21226:
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/21226

   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
