5.5.4

AVRO transformation and rendering support (ALPHA)

In the previous release we added support for AVRO parsing, which means creating an AvroConfiguration with an AvroParsePlugin and with that create a BaseUnitClient that has the parse() method that parses an AVRO Schema and returns an AvroSchemaDocument.

This release, we've added support for the transform() and render() methods, letting the user resolve the model and export it to .jsonld or to .json again.

To do this, we've created the AvroRenderPlugin and added it to the AvroConfiguration as well as the necessary transformation pipelines. Now the AVRO Configuration is much more complete and looks like this:

object AvroConfiguration extends APIConfigurationBuilder {
  def Avro(): AMFConfiguration = {
    common()
      .withPlugins(List(AvroParsePlugin, AvroRenderPlugin))
      .withTransformationPipelines(
        List(
          AvroSchemaTransformationPipeline(),
          AvroSchemaEditingPipeline(),
          AvroSchemaCachePipeline()
        )
      )
  }
}

We're expecting to continue this growth and launch AVRO Validation in the next release, will keep you updated.
