-----------------------------------
Summary: Add support for remaining data types in python RowCoder
Key: BEAM-7996
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-7996
Project: Beam
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: sdk-py-core
Reporter: Brian Hulette
In the initial [python RowCoder
implementation|https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/9188] we only added support
for the data types that already had coders in the Python SDK. We should add
support for the remaining data types that are not currently supported:
* INT8 (ByteCoder in Java)
* INT16 (BigEndianShortCoder in Java)
* FLOAT (FloatCoder in Java)
* BOOLEAN (BooleanCoder in Java)
* Map (MapCoder in Java)
We might consider making those coders standard so they can be tested
independently from RowCoder in standard_coders.yaml. Or, if we don't do that we
should probably add a more robust testing framework for RowCoder itself,
because it will be challenging to test all of these types as part of the
RowCoder tests in standard_coders.yaml.
