Todd Lipcon updated AVRO-258: ----------------------------- Attachment: simple-genned.avpr simple.avpr AVRO-258.txt Here's a patch that shows what works so far. It does not include proper unit tests yet, but you can try it like so: {noformat} $ ant compile-java $ java -cp build/lib/*:build/classes/ org.apache.avro.genavro.GenAvro < src/test/genavro/simple.avpr {noformat} I also attached input and output for a schema basically the same as the test/schemata/simple.avpr Certainly more work to be done here, but I want to get feedback from the community before I spend the time to get it properly tested, documented, corner-cases worked out, etc. Most importantly, is this something people want? Does this style of syntax seem reasonable? > Higher-level language for authoring schemata > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: AVRO-258 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-258 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: spec > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Todd Lipcon > Attachments: AVRO-258.txt, simple-genned.avpr, simple.avpr > > > Early users of Avro have noted that authoring schemas and especially > protocols in JSON feels unnatural.
