Just wondering if there have been any advances on this?
We did review other data types and potential workarounds, but as https://www.mongodb.com/developer/products/mongodb/bson-data-types-decimal128/ mentions, Decimal128 is the only way when dealing with monetary values...
The challenge here is that dart doesn't have a native decimal type, which means that it's a substantial amount of effort to expose this in a meaningful way. We're exploring some options, but because of the complexities, this will likely be released after some of the lower-hanging features (e.g. AnyRealmValue and maps).
I think I may have seen decimal128 is now supported (?), if yes when are you planning to release this?
I had hoped for this week, but that probably won't happen. But I'll eat my old cap if we don't release next week.
haha well if you eat your cap @nielsenko ill send you a new one lol! Will look forward to it! Can't wait!
@nirinchev thanks sooooo much, and also for letting me know! Much appreciated
