########### Limitations ########### GEOMETRY ========= GEOMETRY field is not decoded you will get the raw data. binlog_row_image ================ Only [binlog_row_image=full](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/replication-options-binary-log.html#sysvar_binlog_row_image) is supported (it's the default value). BOOLEAN and BOOL ================ Boolean is returned as TINYINT(1) because it's the reality. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/numeric-type-overview.html Our discussion about it: https://github.com/noplay/python-mysql-replication/pull/16
