> I have a .NET Core application that needs to publish AVRO JSON encoded
> messages to our Confluent Kafka REST API. I can see that the Java and C++
> API's have a JSON encoder, but I couldn't tell from the documentation whether
> the C# API has it, or at least it doesn't seem to. The documentation for the
> C# API is a little light on for details. The Kafka REST API supports JSON,
> and AVRO JSON, but not binary AVRO from what I understand.
> The main problem facing the plain JSON we are currently publishing is that
> when using an AVRO schema and the union type, we hit the problem described
> here https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2899. We need to generate
> the type information in the JSON in order to satisfy the validation in the
> Kafka REST API. Hence, the need for an AVRO JSON encoder.
> I can't re-write the .NET application, so I'm faced with the prospect of
> using either the Java or C++ API's with some sort of wrappers or
> interoperability framework, which I'm desperately trying to avoid.
> Any assistance or suggestions would be much appreciated.
