----------------------------------
Summary: Support SerDe of Decimals in JSON that are not HEX encoded
Key: KAFKA-8595
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8595
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Almog Gavra
Assignee: Almog Gavra
Most JSON data that utilizes precise decimal data represents it as a decimal
string. Kafka Connect, on the other hand, only supports a binary HEX string
encoding (see example below). We should support deserialization and
serialization for any of the following types:
{code:java}
{
"asHex": "D3J5",
"asString": "10.12345"
"asNumber": 10.2345
}{code}
