I am wondering how i am supposed to use the KafkaAvroSerializer. I have installed the confluent-schema-registry as a docker container.
Downloading the sources of the schema registry and building it locally does not work because all the dependencies are missing in maven central and i would have to build them myself als well (i cannot believe that this is the intended way of getting the serializer libraries for production purposes).
The only workaround i found is going into the docker container crawling through the file system searching for the confluent artifacts and cping it my way back to where i need them. icannot believe that this is the intended way either.
- What is the intended way of getting the serializer library? Am is overseeing the obvious?
- Why is it not available via maven central, it would be so easy?!
