             Summary: AvroOutputFormat saves compressed avrò files without respecting codec's default extension
                 Key: AVRO-1862
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1862
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: java
            Reporter: Piotr Wikieł
            Priority: Minor


Common pattern in naming compressed files is giving them extension derived from compression codec, for example: {.gz}, {.zip}, {.bz2}. 
{AvroOutputFormat} currently does not respect this convention. 

I've adapted some code from Hadoop's {TextOutputFormat} in backward-compatible manner adding following {JobConf} property:

{avro.mapred.output.extension.from-codec} ({boolean}, default: {false}) - when set to {true}, extension will be changed according to above rule.
