Sample Schema Files

The Kafka sources and targets in a session read or write data in JSON or Avro format. The following examples contain samples for each schema format.

Sample JSON Schema

When you import a Kafka source or target definition, specify the format in which the PowerExchange for Kafka reads or writes data. When you specify JSON format, provide a sample JSON file.

The following schema is a sample JSON schema:

{"id" : 1, "name" : "sample"}

The JSON schema must be defined in a single line. If you define a JSON schema that contains more than one line, the session fails.

Sample Avro Schema

When you import a Kafka source or target definition, specify the format in which the PowerExchange for Kafka reads or writes data. When you specify Avro format, provide a sample Avro file.

The following schema is a sample Avro schema:

{ 
  "type": "record",  
  "name": "Tree", 
  "fields": [{
      "name": "treestring",
	  "type": "string"
	  },
   {
	  "name": "children",
	  "type": ["null","string"],
	  "default": null
	  }]
