[jira] [Created] (AVRO-1481) Create a new pair of datum reader/writer that set/omit default schema values

Nigel Longton created AVRO-1481:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Create a new pair of datum reader/writer that set/omit default schema values
                 Key: AVRO-1481
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1481
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: java
            Reporter: Nigel Longton
            Priority: Minor


To create simpler json for consumption by non avro clients I created a reader/writer pair that rather than use the union [null, type] model used a default null model. When the writer creates json if the field value equals the default the field is not written to the stream. Likewise when read, a missing field with a default is set to the default. If you like these please include them in the next release (code attached as soon as I work out how). Am working on a csharp version as well.
