Purpose
When using Paimon table with
metadata.iceberg.storageoption to read metadata as Iceberg table, Iceberg fails to parse the metadata JSON with the following error:This happens because Paimon serializes the
docfield as"doc": nullwhen the field description is not set. According to Iceberg spec, the doc field is optional. It is preferable to omit it rather than set it to null when not present.This PR adds
@JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL)annotation to thedocfield inIcebergDataField, so that null values are excluded from JSON output.Before:
{ "id": 1, "name": "column_name", "required": false, "type": "string", "doc": null }After:
{ "id": 1, "name": "column_name", "required": false, "type": "string" }Tests
