Large Object Support?

[acidtonic]

Curious if there are any plans for large object support? Normally I'd just store in the filesystem with a checksum in the DB but I have a need for the streaming/seeking abilities that come with the large object api. I don't even need all that fancy support here only basic crud and from my other tools I can do the rest.

I see TEXT support but that's 1GB limited and I'm doing neural network stuff that easily eclipses that with larger models so I truly need large object support or perhaps another document db to go alongside.

Wanted to ask in case the docs were out of date. I also lurk in the Gitter chat and can ask there if collaboration is needed. Thanks!

Hello @acidtonic ,

I'm currently working on finishing arrays functionality.
Large objects can be added afterward. But most probably it'll happen (large objs) in the next release 1.3.0.

I seen arrays and 1.2.5 get released, just wanted to see how large object support is going.

Also if I use TEXT do I need to do my own base64 encoding?

@acidtonic ,

Yes, arrays were added in 1.2.5.

Also if I use TEXT do I need to do my own base64 encoding?

Yes, if your binary data can contain a '\0' char - then base64 encoding may be a good solution for you.

Hi @lganzzzo
Large Object Support is integrated in 1.3.0 or it is work still in progress ?
I couldn't find any example on how to use this in oatpp framework.
