[GitHub] [beam] ahmedabu98 opened a new issue, #25946: [Task]: Support more Beam portable schema types as Python types

["ahmedabu98 (via GitHub)" <gi...@apache.org>]

ahmedabu98 opened a new issue, #25946:
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/25946

   ### What needs to happen?
   
   Beam portable schemas include primitive and more complex types (represented as [logical types](https://github.com/apache/beam/tree/master/sdks/java/core/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/sdk/schemas/logicaltypes)). Some of these types are supported in the Python SDK: https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/99202b237e364bf77f40b6da0ec22cb7b17c37d0/sdks/python/apache_beam/typehints/schemas.py#L23-L41
   
   When necessary, Python classes are created to represent a portable type. For example, see Timestamp below:
   https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/99202b237e364bf77f40b6da0ec22cb7b17c37d0/sdks/python/apache_beam/utils/timestamp.py#L45
   
   There are some missing portable types in the Python SDK (e.g. Date, DateTime) that we should add support for to make the cross-language experience more smooth.
