Consume Avro stream from Kafka topic

[ananth3010]

Hi

The current version reads .avro files from HDFS (or) any FS file path. I am storing my avro file stream in Kafka. Do you have a utility to read a avro stream (or) file from a Kafka topic?

If so could you let me know?

#216 has this resolved. Is there a documentation on how to use this?

[ananth3010]

#201 confirms this. Pasting it here for others benefit:

You can do this with DStream.foreachRDD { rdd => df = rddToDataFrame(rdd) }
