Impossible de parse date type from avro schema

[Z21GELHA]

Hello,

Currently in the KafkaSteps class, when we try to map a date like 2024-09-16, we encounter some troubles because of the avro type.

In fact, when we have a date, we have this kind of Avro schema: { "default": null, "name": "my_date", "type": [ "null", { "logicalType": "date", "type": "int" } ] }

But because, the type is considered as an UNION, the parseAvro method doesn't transform the value in an Integer.

What I suggest is to modify the method like this to cover this situation:

@Nullable
    private Object parseAvro(String value, Schema valueSchema) {
        return switch (valueSchema.getType()) {
            case INT -> {
                if("date".equals(valueSchema.getProp("logicalType"))) {
                    yield (int) LocalDate.parse(value, DateTimeFormatter.ISO_LOCAL_DATE).toEpochDay();
                } else {
                    yield Integer.parseInt(value);
                }
            }
            case LONG -> Long.parseLong(value);
            case FLOAT -> Float.parseFloat(value);
            case DOUBLE -> Double.parseDouble(value);
            case BOOLEAN -> Boolean.parseBoolean(value);
            default -> value;
        };
    }
