Reading/Writing Avro files using R

Hello Developers,

I wish to write and run a package/code in R, which will help me read/write Avro files, using R interface.

Please help, as to how can I start doing the same.

Thanks & Regards

RE: Reading/Writing Avro files using R

Hi, 

Can anyone please help me with some examples as to how can I use make.socket(), read.socket(), write.socket(), close.socket().  

With the examples in the documentation, I am getting errors in making sockets. 
Error: Error in make.socket(host, port) : socket not established
Can anyone please help!

@larsen: thanks :)

Thanks 
Anshuman

Hi Anshuman,

I don't know of any packages that let you read/write Avro from R as of yet.
 I know that RHadoop is under active development at Revolution, and I believe they are trying to work on an R API for Avro.  Best to contact Antonio Piccolboni about it to see what the roadmap is like.
