[jira] [Commented] (AVRO-3781) [Rust] Enhance decimal resolving

["Fedor Telnov (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Fedor Telnov commented on AVRO-3781:
------------------------------------

[~mgrigorov] That's more like a question to discuss, cuz I've made a research and haven't found an appropriate answer to my question. So the current answer is that it is impossible - therefore this issue exists.

Also slack is not publicly accessible :c

> Firstly, I have a question - maybe I've missed something - how to properly resolve json-based avro data with decimal avro schema(either based on bytes or fixed types)?
> I think it's impossible to resolve json-based avro data with decimal schema - I've tried some variants, like passing bytes as Unicode symbols, or passing array of bytes directly, or even simply float numbers - nothing works.
> My proposition is to allow decimal resolving on following json variants:
> 1) Array of u8;
> 2) float value;
> 3) integer value.
> String is kinda dangerous to allow resolving, as it might be malformed.
