[jira] [Updated] (AVRO-866) Python: add snappy compression

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-866?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Tom White updated AVRO-866:
---------------------------

    Attachment: weather-snappy.avro
                AVRO-866.patch

Here's a patch for snappy support. I ran a test to check that an Avro data file produced using Python with the Snappy codec could be read from Java, and vice versa.

I've also attached weather-snappy.avro as an example of a snappy-compressed Avro data file, which might be worth checking into share/test/data.

> Support for snappy compression was added to the Java implementation in AVRO-788. It would be great to add this to the python implementation -- there's already a library for python 2.5+: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-snappy
