[jira] [Commented] (AVRO-485) JavaScript encoding/decoding

["Quinn Slack (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-485?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13504203#comment-13504203 ] 

Quinn Slack commented on AVRO-485:
----------------------------------

I have an update to this that adds Javascript codegen. It uses ES5 Object.defineProperty to ensure that the object is valid after each field update.

https://github.com/sqs/avro/tree/js-codegen/lang/js

Usage example at https://github.com/sqs/avro/blob/js-codegen/lang/js/test/usage_test.js. Sample codegen'd file at https://gist.github.com/4151179.

Should I prepare a patch with the JS codegen?

> It would be very nice to have Javascript encoding/decoding support.  There are at least a couple of interested in streaming Avro-encoded data to a browser-based client.
> Working with binary data in JS is a bit ugly ... here's a sample:
