Dataclasses Avro Schema Generator

Generate Avro Schemas from a Python class

Build Status GitHub license codecov python version

Requirements

python 3.7+

Installation

pip install dataclasses-avroschema

Documentation

https://marcosschroh.github.io/dataclasses-avroschema/

Usage

Generating the avro schema

from dataclasses import dataclass

import typing

from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel, types


@dataclass
class User(AvroModel):
    "An User"
    name: str
    age: int
    pets: typing.List[str]
    accounts: typing.Dict[str, int]
    favorite_colors: types.Enum = types.Enum(["BLUE", "YELLOW", "GREEN"])
    country: str = "Argentina"
    address: str = None

    class Meta:
        namespace = "User.v1"
        aliases = ["user-v1", "super user"]

User.avro_schema()

'{
    "type": "record",
    "name": "User",
    "doc": "An User",
    "namespace": "User.v1",
    "aliases": ["user-v1", "super user"],
    "fields": [
        {"name": "name", "type": "string"},
        {"name": "age", "type": "long"},
        {"name": "pets", "type": "array", "items": "string"},
        {"name": "accounts", "type": "map", "values": "long"},
        {"name": "favorite_colors", "type": "enum", "symbols": ["BLUE", "YELLOW", "GREEN"]},
        {"name": "country", "type": "string", "default": "Argentina"},
        {"name": "address", "type": ["null", "string"], "default": null}
    ]
}'

User.avro_schema_to_python()

{
    "type": "record",
    "name": "User",
    "doc": "An User",
    "namespace": "User.v1",
    "aliases": ["user-v1", "super user"],
    "fields": [
        {"name": "name", "type": "string"},
        {"name": "age", "type": "long"},
        {"name": "pets", "type": {"type": "array", "items": "string", "name": "pet"}},
        {"name": "accounts", "type": {"type": "map", "values": "long", "name": "account"}},
        {"name": "favorite_colors", "type": {"type": "enum", "name": "favorite_color", "symbols": ["BLUE", "YELLOW", "GREEN"]}},
        {"name": "country", "type": "string", "default": "Argentina"},
        {"name": "address", "type": ["null", "string"], "default": None}
    ],
}

Serialization to avro or avro-json and json payload

For serialization is neccesary to use python class/dataclasses instance

from dataclasses import dataclass

import typing

from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel


@dataclass
class Address(AvroModel):
    "An Address"
    street: str
    street_number: int

@dataclass
class User(AvroModel):
    "User with multiple Address"
    name: str
    age: int
    addresses: typing.List[Address]

address_data = {
    "street": "test",
    "street_number": 10,
}

# create an Address instance
address = Address(**address_data)

data_user = {
    "name": "john",
    "age": 20,
    "addresses": [address],
}

# create an User instance
user = User(**data_user)

user.serialize()
# >>> b"\x08john(\x02\x08test\x14\x00"

user.serialize(serialization_type="avro-json")
# >>> b'{"name": "john", "age": 20, "addresses": [{"street": "test", "street_number": 10}]}'

# Get the json from the instance

user.to_json()
# python dict >>> {'name': 'john', 'age': 20, 'addresses': [{'street': 'test', 'street_number': 10}]}

Deserialization

Deserialization could take place with an instance dataclass or the dataclass itself. Can return the dict representation or a new class instance

import typing

from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel


class Address(AvroModel):
    "An Address"
    street: str
    street_number: int

class User(AvroModel):
    "User with multiple Address"
    name: str
    age: int
    addresses: typing.List[Address]

avro_binary = b"\x08john(\x02\x08test\x14\x00"
avro_json_binary = b'{"name": "john", "age": 20, "addresses": [{"street": "test", "street_number": 10}]}'

# return a new class instance!!
User.deserialize(avro_binary)
# >>>> User(name='john', age=20, addresses=[Address(street='test', street_number=10)])

# return a python dict
User.deserialize(avro_binary, create_instance=False)
# >>> {"name": "john", "age": 20, "addresses": [{"street": "test", "street_number": 10}]}

# return a new class instance!!
User.deserialize(avro_json_binary, serialization_type="avro-json")
# >>>> User(name='john', age=20, addresses=[Address(street='test', street_number=10)])

# return a python dict
User.deserialize(avro_json_binary, serialization_type="avro-json", create_instance=False)
# >>> {"name": "john", "age": 20, "addresses": [{"street": "test", "street_number": 10}]}

Examples with python streaming drivers (kafka and redis)

Under examples folder you can find 3 differents kafka examples, one with aiokafka (async) showing the simplest use case when a AvroModel instance is serialized and sent it thorught kafka, and the event is consumed. The other two examples are sync using the kafka-python driver, where the avro-json serialization and schema evolution (FULL compatibility) is shown. Also, there are two redis examples using redis streams with walrus and redisgears-py

Factory and fixtures

Dataclasses Avro Schema also includes a factory feature, so you can generate fast python instances and use them, for example, to test your data streaming pipelines. Instances can be genrated using the fake method.

import typing

from dataclasses_avroschema import AvroModel


class Address(AvroModel):
    "An Address"
    street: str
    street_number: int

class User(AvroModel):
    "User with multiple Address"
    name: str
    age: int
    addresses: typing.List[Address]


Address.fake()
# >>>> Address(street='PxZJILDRgbXyhWrrPWxQ', street_number=2067)

User.fake()
# >>>> User(name='VGSBbOGfSGjkMDnefHIZ', age=8974, addresses=[Address(street='vNpPYgesiHUwwzGcmMiS', street_number=4790)])
