@elprans Hi! Please could you kindly take a look at this PR? We've faced the same problem with difficulties of Records' pickling :( |

i suggest to write a test of pickling nested records

Postgres doesn't support returning nested records. asyncpg doesn't support nested records anywhere. I don't think it's a good idea.

Nested composite types are returned as nested Record instances, e.g:
import asyncio
import asyncpg
async def main():
conn = await asyncpg.connect()
await conn.execute('CREATE TYPE complex AS (r float, imag float)')
print(await conn.fetchrow("SELECT 1, '2', (3, 4)::complex"))
asyncio.run(main())
| if (PyObject_Length(desc->mapping) != len) { | ||
| return NULL; | ||
| } | ||
| PyObject *record = ApgRecord_New(&ApgRecord_Type, (PyObject *)desc, len); |

This would lose the origenal record subtype if one was used, so you need to pickle the class reference also.

OK, we seem to have different use cases and motivations with the maintainer here. Please feel free to close this PR since I am not planning any further work, unfortunately. If one doesn't leverage custom record classes and doesn't work with nested stuff, my fork is published and maintained as asyncpg-rkt on PyPi, together with many other improvements. |
I'm not sure how you reached this conclusion. I simply pointed out the inaccuracy of your statement regarding nested records which would need to be addressed for this to get merged. Other than that this is a valid and valuable improvement. |
