             Summary: Add Daffodil IO for Apache Beam
                 Key: BEAM-9189
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-9189
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: sdk-java-core
            Reporter: Brian Hulette


>From https://daffodil.apache.org/:

{quote}Daffodil is an open source implementation of the DFDL specification that 
uses these DFDL schemas to parse fixed format data into an infoset, which is 
most commonly represented as either XML or JSON. This allows the use of 
well-established XML or JSON technologies and libraries to consume, inspect, 
and manipulate fixed format data in existing solutions. Daffodil is also 
capable of the reverse by serializing or “unparsing” an XML or JSON infoset 
back to the original data format.
{quote}

We should create a Beam IO that accepts a DFDL schema as an argument and can 
then produce and consume data in the specified format. I think it would be most 
natural for Beam users if this IO could produce Beam Rows, but an initial 
version that just operates with Infosets could be useful as well.
