OpenSchema Schema Registry

OpenSchema Schema Registry overview

OpenSchema Schema Registry provides support for you to store schema information in a textual format (typically JSON) and access that information whenever applications need it.

The Schema Registry deals with the following elements:

• A subject which is a logical name of the schema

• The schema version which is a specific version of a schema document

OpenSchema Schema Registry provides the following components

• Standalone Schema Registry Server

  By default, it is using an H2 database, but server can be used with other databases by providing appropriate datasource configuration.
  

• Schema Registry API are designed to follow OpenSchema Specification for storing, accessing schema documents.

  Currently, the API communicates to the standalone schema registry server.

Building

Basic Compile and Test

To build the source you will need to install JDK 1.8.

OpenSchema Schema Registry uses Maven for build-related activities, and you should be able to get off the ground quite quickly by cloning the project you are interested in and typing

$ ./mvn clean install -DskipTests

This should result in producing an executable JAR, and in-memory persistence implementation.

java -jar target/registry-server-0.0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar

This should result in the Schema Registry starting up and the registry available on localhost port 8081
