Schema init 'best practice'

I want to package some schema with a library.

I could use the hector API to create the schema if not found. Or I
could, what, stuff a yaml file into something? Is there an API for
that, or do I end up where I started?

That's probably simplest for your users.  (This is what stress.java
does, for instance.)

Otherwise, I'd recommend bundling a cli script that does the desired
create statements.
