Component/s: java
> Better Json serialization for Avro decimal logical types?
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-1950
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1950
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: java
> Reporter: Zoltan Farkas
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently as I understand decimal logical types are encoded on top of bytes and fixed avro types. This makes them a bit "unnatural" in the json encoding...
> I worked around a hack in my fork to naturally encode them into json decimals. A good starting point to look at is in: https://github.com/zolyfarkas/avro/blob/trunk/lang/java/avro/src/main/java/org/apache/avro/io/DecimalEncoder.java
> My approach is a bit hacky, so I would be interested in suggestions to have this closer to something we can integrate into avro...
