Write pojo's to parquet file using reflection

Question

HI Looking for APIs to write parquest with Pojos that I have. I was able to generate avro schema using reflection and then create parquet schema using AvroSchemaConverter.

Answer 1

DISCLAIMER: The following code was written when I was in a hurry. It is not efficient and future versions of parquet will surely fix this more directly. That being said, this is a lightweight inefficient approach to what you need. The strategy is POJO -> AVRO -> PARQUET

1. POJO -> AVRO: Declare a schema via reflection. Declare writers and readers based on the schema. At the time of conversion write the object to byte stream and read it back as avro.
2. AVRO -> Parquet: use the AvroParquetWriter included in the parquet-me project.
