This page details the Avro Packet Maker processor:
Alert Schema
Packets are made based on a nested schema format, similar to that used by ZTF.
Schemas are in schema/ and are given as .avsc files. alert.avsc is the top-level schema. candidate.avsc and prv_candidate.avsc are packed into alert.avsc.
Requires python 3 and avro.schema for combining nested schemas. This module specifically works only with avro version 1.10.1 (which you can get with pip install avro==1.10.1)
Saving Packets Locally
If Avro packets are being saved locally, ensure that the output data directory has been set correctly. Use export OUTPUT_DATA_DIR=/path/to/directory to set.
