With ObjectiveAVRO, you can easily encode and decode Avro data from JSON or binary formats, validate against Avro schemas, and perform schema evolution effortlessly.
Key Features
- Efficient encoding and decoding of Avro data
- Supports Avro data in JSON and binary formats
- Schema resolution and compatibility checks for schema evolution
- Validation against Avro schemas
- Extensive documentation and code examples for easy integration
Getting Started with ObjectiveAVRO
To start using ObjectiveAVRO in your Objective-C project, follow the steps below:
Step 1: Installation
ObjectiveAVRO can be easily installed using Cocoapods. Simply add the following line to your Podfile:
pod 'ObjectiveAVRO'
Then, run the pod install
command in your project directory.
Step 2: Importing the Framework
Import the ObjectiveAVRO framework in your Objective-C files by adding the following line at the top:
#import <ObjectiveAVRO/ObjectiveAVRO.h>
Ensure that you have also linked the ObjectiveAVRO framework to your project.
Step 3: Usage Example
Here’s a quick example of encoding and decoding Avro data using ObjectiveAVRO:
// Import the framework
#import <ObjectiveAVRO/ObjectiveAVRO.h>
// Create a sample Avro schema
NSString *avroSchema = @"{\"type\":\"record\",\"name\":\"Person\",\"fields\":[{\"name\":\"name\",\"type\":\"string\"},{\"name\":\"age\",\"type\":\"int\"}]}";
// Create a dictionary with the Avro data
NSDictionary *avroData = @{@"name": @"John Doe", @"age": @30};
// Encode the Avro data to Avro binary format
NSData *encodedData = [AVSCDatumWriter encodeData:avroData usingSchema:avroSchema];
// Decode the Avro binary data to Avro JSON
NSDictionary *decodedData = [AVSCDatumReader decodeData:encodedData usingSchema:avroSchema];
// Access the decoded data
NSString *name = decodedData[@"name"];
NSNumber *age = decodedData[@"age"];
This example showcases the basic usage of ObjectiveAVRO for encoding and decoding Avro data. You can explore the ObjectiveAVRO documentation and code examples for more advanced usage.
