Serialize array of strings? about go-avro

Hi @kartiksura, can you please attach some code that didn't work for you?
Thanks

I refered to the schema from the following article:

Ok so SpecificDatumWriter does not yet implement complex types writing, only GenericDatumWriter does at the moment. This will probably be one of the next things to be implemented, hopefully will find time to do it this week.

And one thing more, your schema is incorrect a bit, the type in messages field should not be a JSON array for Avro arrays (only union types should be arrays), so the schema for this field should look like this:

{ "name": "messages", "type": { "type": "array", "name": "messagestype", "items": { "name": "message", "type": "string" } } }

You may open a separate issue for SpecificDatumWriter complex types so we definitely focus on that and don't forget.

Thanks

Hi @kartiksura, I got this fixed in #22, your code should now work fine assuming you fixed the schema
