Modifier and TypeClass and Description

AvroSchema.Resolving

Sub-class that does writer-to-reader conversion by using "resolving decoder" (by avro codec) on top of binary codec, exposing content using (reader) schema this instance was configured with.

Field Summary

Lazily instantiated value reader for this schema.

_writerSchema

Schema that was used for writing the data to decode; for simple instance used for reading as well (reader schema).

getSchemaType()

Implements com.fasterxml.jackson.core.FormatSchema.getSchemaType.

Method that can be used to get an identifier that can be used for diagnostics purposes, to indicate what kind of data format this schema is used for: typically it is a short name of format itself, but it can also contain additional information in cases where data format supports multiple types of schemas.

Overrides java.lang.Object.toString.

Returns a string representation of the object.

withReaderSchema(AvroSchema
"Reader Schema" to use (in Avro terms): schema that specified how reader wants to see the data; specifies part of translation needed along with this schema (which would be "Writer Schema" in Avro terms).
readerSchema
)

Method that will consider this schema instance (used as so-called "Writer Schema"), and specified "Reader Schema" instance, and will either construct a new schema with appropriate translations, to use for reading (if reader and writer schemas are not same); or, if schemas are the same, return `this`.

public AvroSchema
withUnsafeReaderSchema(AvroSchema readerSchema)

Similar to withReaderSchema but will NOT verify compatibility of schemas: this means that certain problems (such as missing default value for a newly added field) that would be caught at construction may be surfaced later when using schema.

public boolean equals(Object o)

Overrides java.lang.Object.equals.

Doc from java.lang.Object.equals.

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

  • It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
  • It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
  • It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
  • It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
  • For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on into equivalence classes; all the members of an equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least for some purposes.

Parameters
o:Object

the reference object with which to compare.

Returns:boolean

true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

public int hashCode()

Overrides java.lang.Object.hashCode.

Doc from java.lang.Object.hashCode.

Returns a hash code value for this object. This method is supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by java.util.HashMap.

The general contract of hashCode is:

  • Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
  • If two objects are equal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
  • It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.
Returns:int

a hash code value for this object

public String toString()

Overrides java.lang.Object.toString.

Doc from java.lang.Object.toString.

Returns a string representation of the object. Satisfying this method's contract implies a non-null result must be returned.

Returns:String

a string representation of the object

@Override
withReaderSchemaback to summary
public AvroSchema withReaderSchema(AvroSchema readerSchema) throws JsonProcessingException

Method that will consider this schema instance (used as so-called "Writer Schema"), and specified "Reader Schema" instance, and will either construct a new schema with appropriate translations, to use for reading (if reader and writer schemas are not same); or, if schemas are the same, return `this`.

Note that neither `this` instance nor `readerSchema` is ever modified: if an altered version is needed, a new schema object will be constructed.

Note

this is a relatively expensive operation due to validation (although significant part of cost is deferred until the first call to getReader) so it is recommended that these instances are reused whenever possible.

Parameters
readerSchema:AvroSchema

"Reader Schema" to use (in Avro terms): schema that specified how reader wants to see the data; specifies part of translation needed along with this schema (which would be "Writer Schema" in Avro terms).

Similar to withReaderSchema but will NOT verify compatibility of schemas: this means that certain problems (such as missing default value for a newly added field) that would be caught at construction may be surfaced later when using schema. This is, however, sometimes necessary to work around potential BUT NOT ACTUAL problems.
