config BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON_AVRO bool "python-avro" help Select this option to install the Avro Python3 language bindings, and the `avro` command line tool Apache Avro is a data serialization system. Avro provides: - Rich data structures. - A compact, fast, binary data format. - A container file, to store persistent data. - Remote procedure call (RPC). - Simple integration with dynamic languages. - Code generation is not required to read or write data files nor to use or implement RPC protocols. - Code generation as an optional optimization, only worth implementing for statically typed languages. http://avro.apache.org/
