-------------------------------------
Summary: Improve error reporting for schema validation
Key: AVRO-1886
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1886
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: ruby
Reporter: Miroslav Csonka
Priority: Minor
In Funding Circle we use avro schema to validate some financial data and we've
found ourselves wondering what is invalid. We've noticed that avro [does
already
validation|https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/master/lang/ruby/lib/avro/schema.rb#L94],
but does not report what fields are invalid.
At this point, we can clearly communicate validation scenarios and avro can be
even used as a validation library.
Little preview of what we've done

at .person.houses\[1\].number_of_rooms expected type long, got string with
value "not valid at all"

At this point, our fork is quite outdated so it will take us some time to
update it and submit a patch. This is just a question if you would be
interested in receiving such a patch.
