Jordan Moore commented on SPARK-26314:
--------------------------------------
[~dongjoon], I however feel like AVRO-1124 won't have any traction. Even Avro
releases themselves have been non-existent over the last few years. My point
was that AVRO-1124 effectively _became_ the Confluent Schema Registry, with
Jay, being CEO of Confluent.
My second point, while I understand Apache projects are maintained by varying
developers, each with their own directions on the projects, those other
projects _do support_ it. You're effectively losing a large portion of
developers by not having it be easily available as a Spark offered library, or
at the very, very least shown how to integrate it in the Spark documentation.
Simply adding --packages is not enough, as it still requires a SparkSQL UDF, or
Encoder/Decoder to wrap Confluent's KafkaAvroSerializer classes.
> support Confluent encoded Avro in Spark Structured Streaming

> Key: SPARK-26314
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-26314
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Structured Streaming
> Affects Versions: 2.4.0
> Reporter: David Ahern
> Priority: Major
>
> As Avro has now been added as a first class citizen,
> [https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-data-sources-avro.html]
> please make Confluent encoded avro work out of the box with Spark Structured
> Streaming
> as described in this link, Avro messages on Kafka encoded with confluent
> serializer also need to be decoded with confluent. It would be great if this
> worked out of the box

> here are details on the Confluent encoding

> It's been a year since i worked on anything to do with Avro and Spark
> Structured Streaming, but i had to take an approach such as this when getting
> it to work. This is what i used as a reference at that time
