Data Pipeline Avro Util

What is it?

The Data Pipeline Avro utility package provides a Pythonic interface for reading and writing Avro schemas. It also provides an enum class for metadata that we've found useful to include in our schemas.

Tests

Running unit tests

Usage

Using Avro Schema Builder::

from data_pipeline_avro_util.avro_builder import AvroSchemaBuilder
from data_pipeline_avro_util.data_pipeline.avro_meta_data import AvroMetaDataKeys

avro_builder = AvroSchemaBuilder()
avro_builder.begin_record(
    name="test_name",
    namespace="test_namespace",
    doc="test_doc"
)
avro_builder.add_field(
    name = "key1",
    typ = "string",     # datatype of this field is string
    doc="test_doc1",
    metadata={
        AvroMetaDataKeys.PRIMARY_KEY: 1     # first primary key
    }
)
avro_builder.add_field(
    name = "key2",
    typ = "string",
    doc="test_doc2"
)
record_json = avro_builder.end()
print record_json

    {
        "type": "record",
        "namespace": "test_namespace",
        "name": "test_name",
        "doc": "test_doc",
        "fields": [
            {"type": "string", "doc": "test_doc1", "name": "key1", "pkey": True},
            {"type": "string", "doc": "test_doc2", "name": "key2"}
        ]
    }
