----------------------------------------------------
Summary: Introduce Named Schema Formatters
Key: AVRO-3677
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3677
Project: Apache Avro
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: java
Affects Versions: 1.11.1
Reporter: Oscar Westra van Holthe - Kind
Fix For: 1.12.0
Similar to AVRO-3666, which introduces multiple schema parsers, I propose to
introduce multiple, named, schema formatters.
Names can be of the form {{{}<name>[/<variant>]{}}}, there the variant part is
optional.
Initially, the list would be:
* json -> alias for json/pretty
* json/pretty -> pretty{-}-{-}printed JSON; replaces
{{{}Schema.toString(true){}}}
* json/inline -> single-line JSON; replaces {{{}Schema.toString(false){}}}
* canonical -> Parsing Canonical Form (as per spec)
Then, after merging AVRO-3404, we can also add:
* idl -> to write schemata in IDL format, as requested in AVRO-1757
