> I'd find it useful to be able to dump Avro collections to a text file (as
> json) during development to have a quick look inside without having to mess
> around with avro-tools. The current Pipeline.writeTextFile method expects
> Writables and gives the following error when you attempt to pass Avro to it:
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: class my.avro.Record
> at java.lang.Class.asSubclass(Class.java:3018)
> at
> org.apache.crunch.types.writable.Writables.records(Writables.java:250)

> org.apache.crunch.types.writable.WritableTypeFamily.records(WritableTypeFamily.java:86)
> at org.apache.crunch.types.PTypeUtils.convert(PTypeUtils.java:61)
