Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-2076:
------------------------------------
Doesn't DataFileWriter#appendEncoded() already provide this?
https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.8.2/api/java/org/apache/avro/file/DataFileWriter.html#appendEncoded(java.nio.ByteBuffer)
> Combine already serialized Avro records to an Avro file

> In some use cases Avro events arrive already serialized (e.g. when listening
> to a Kafka topic). It would be great if there would an API that allows
> writing an Avro file without the need for deserializing and serializing these
> Avro records.
> Providing such an API allows for very efficient creation of Avro files: given
> that these Avro records are written with the same schema, an Avro file would
> write will the exact same bytes anyway (before block compression).
