Philip Zeyliger commented on AVRO-245: -------------------------------------- I'm fine with "binary_fragment_to_json". Feel free to do the regexp on the patch. Only time will tell, but I'm willing to bet (you know, a milkshake, perhaps) that folks will store avro data in non-condoned file formats. Like databases (either RDBMS or key-value like BDB) or SequenceFiles, or whatever. Someone on the user list just asked about this recently, too. If you'd prefer to wait for a data file reader/writer to check this in, we could have had one written already :) -- Philip > Commandline utility for converting to and from Avro's binary format. > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: AVRO-245 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-245 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: java > Reporter: Philip Zeyliger > Assignee: Philip Zeyliger > Priority: Minor > Attachments: AVRO-245.patch.txt, AVRO-245.patch.txt > > > A utility for avrotool that can convert between Avro binary data and the JSON > textual form. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
