Can I split an Apache Avro schema across multiple files?

Question

I can do,

{
    \"type\": \"record\",
    \"name\": \"Foo\",
    \"fields\": [
        {\"name\": \"bar\", \"type\": {
            \"type\": \"record\",

You need to import the avsc file in avro-maven plugin where you have first written the object schema that you want to reuse

org.apache.avro
avro-maven-plugin
${avro.maven.plugin.version}

    String


    
        generate-sources
        
            schema
        
        
            src/main/java/com/xyz/avro // Avro directory
            
                src/main/java/com/xyz/avro/file.avsc // Import here
