Create aliases on the `globalNames` somehow
Hey,
I'm using the confluent-kafka-go
, during the deserialization-generic flow they call avro.Unmarshal
, which by consequence it will use the globalNames.Unmarshal
.
In my case, I'm experiencing an error of Incompatible types
from gogen-avro
, I have a struct with the Avro schema defined just on the schema registry, outer from my project. So the writer
and reader
schemas don't match, because the field names are interpreted differently.
After doing some hacks locally in order to test, I found globalNames.Rename("<struct_field>", "<schema_registry_field>", "<struct_field>")
and it solves the issue. But I didn't find a way to hook globalNames
variable or some way to replace them globally (as zap log does for instance).
Which is the right way to use the aliases by Rename
method?
Does makes sense for you to propose a way to use Rename
method on the globalNames
? If does, would you accept a PR making this kind of change?
Tks
