Export: Avro IDL

Converts the data contract to Avro IDL.

datacontract export avro-idl orders.odcs.yaml --output orders.avdl

Running this against the example orders contract produces:

/** Tracks customer orders and their line items for analytics and reporting. */
protocol Orders {
    /** One row per customer order. */
    record orders {
        /** Unique identifier of the order. */
        string order_id;
        /** Timestamp when the order was placed. */
        string order_timestamp;
        /** Reference to the customer who placed the order. */
        string customer_id;
        /** Total amount of the order in cents. */
        double order_total;
        /** Current fulfilment status of the order. */
        string status;
    }
    /** One row per line item within an order. */
    record line_items {
        /** Unique identifier of the line item. */
        string line_item_id;
        /** Reference to the parent order. */
        string order_id;
        /** Stock keeping unit of the purchased product. */
        string sku;
        /** Number of units purchased. */
        int quantity;
    }
