He Chen created AVRO-3013:
-----------------------------
Summary: Avro files should allow fsync-ing files to disk in Python
Key: AVRO-3013
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3013
Project: Apache Avro
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: He Chen
I am new to Apache, but here I am...
In our use case, we need to constantly update an existing avro file. The way we
did it is that we copy the old avro file to a temporary file, append data to
the temporary file, close the temporary file, and rename the temporary file to
the original avro file. This is problematic since closing a file does not
guarantee to write data to disk. The bug caused by this is hard to track since
it's hard to reproduce.
I noticed that there is a ticket that addresses this for the Java client
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1388. Why isn't it implemented for
the Python client? If there are no objections, I'd like to submit a patch. Or
perhaps I am missing something here? Please let me know!
