About

Improvements to be mainlined from https://github.com/pyveci/supertask/blob/19316e2/supertask/store/cratedb.py. The support for binary data types is being emulated by serializing them to STRING using base64. In that way, pickled data can be stored and retrieved without further ado.

Keep in mind that CrateDB also supports BitString type, but I don't think that's what we want here, right?

Right. Here, it is about providing an emulation for a BLOB-type column. However, expanding type support to include the BIT type will be nice to have for the sake of completeness. So far, I didn't need it, but I am sure others will.

Review that detail about returning a DBAPIBinary, or not.

# Python 3 has native bytes() type
# both sqlite3 and pg8000 seem to return it,
# psycopg2 as of 2.5 returns 'memoryview'

Note to self, or others who want to pick this up:

Review that detail about dialect.returns_native_bytes: Should it be handled differently, because, well, base64.b64decode actually returns native bytes already?
