Philip Zeyliger commented on AVRO-154:
--------------------------------------

bq. Should we add an option to pretty-print the schema?

Yes, but not quite yet?  I want to figure out how to do command-line parsing 
for tools, but I want to do some more research and have a couple more examples 
before I get there.

bq. Should we add an option/command to induce protocols from an interface too?

Probably, but I'm not yet sure how to do it.  getProtocol() requires paranamer, 
so whereas it makes sense to point "induce" at a POJO, I'm not sure if it makes 
sense to point it at an arbitrary class --- chances are, it won't have the 
paranamer data.  We could run paranamer from within the tool, but that's 
sufficiently different that I'd rather leave it for a different JIRA.

> Patch that follows gives command-line access to ReflectData's getSchema() 
> API, which creates an AVRO schema based on reflection.
> Here's an example:
> {noformat}
>    $ src/scripts/avroj.sh induce build/test/classes org.apache.avro.BarRecord
>     
> {"type":"record","name":"BarRecord","namespace":"org.apache.avro","fields":[{"name":"beerMsg","type":"string"}]}
> {noformat}
