Class HadoopCodecFactory

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.avro.hadoop.file.HadoopCodecFactory

public class HadoopCodecFactory
extends Object

Encapsulates the ability to specify and configure an avro compression codec from a given hadoop codec defined with the configuration parameter: mapred.output.compression.codec Currently there are three codecs registered by default:

• org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.DeflateCodec will map to deflate
• org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.SnappyCodec will map to snappy
• org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.BZip2Codec will map to zbip2
• org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.GZipCodec will map to deflate

New and custom codecs can be registered using #addCodec(String, CodecFactory).
