Ismaël Mejía updated BEAM-7802:
-------------------------------
Description: Avro can infer the Schema for an Avro based PCollection by
using the `withBeamSchemas` method, however if the user created a PCollection
with Avro objects or IndexedRecord/GenericRecord, he needs to manually set the
schema (or coder). The idea is to expose a method to easily get a Schema Coder
from Avro objects or Schema and the user finally can set the Schema-based coder
if it needs the PCollection to behavie like a Schema-based one. (was: Avro can
infer the Schema for an Avro based PCollection by using the `withBeamSchemas`
method, however if the user created a PCollection with Avro objects or
IndexedRecord/GenericRecord, he needs to manually set the schema (or coder).
The idea is to expose a method in schema.AvroUtils to ease this.)
