//! Avro reader
//!
//! Facilities to read Apache Avro–encoded data into Arrow's `RecordBatch` format.
//!
//! ### Limitations
//!
//!- **Avro unions with > 127 branches are not supported.**
//!  When decoding Avro unions to Arrow `UnionArray`, Arrow stores the union
//!  type identifiers in an **8‑bit signed** buffer (`i8`). This implies a
//!  practical limit of **127** distinct branch ids. Inputs that resolve to
//!  more than 127 branches will return an error. If you truly need more,
//!  model the schema as a **union of unions**, per the Arrow format spec.
//!
//!  See: Arrow Columnar Format — Dense Union (“types buffer: 8‑bit signed;
//!  a union with more than 127 possible types can be modeled as a union of
//!  unions”).
//!
//! This module exposes three layers of the API surface, from highest to lowest-level:
//!
//! * [`ReaderBuilder`](crate::reader::ReaderBuilder): configures how Avro is read (batch size, strict union handling,
//!   string representation, reader schema, etc.) and produces either:
//!   * a `Reader` for **Avro Object Container Files (OCF)** read from any `BufRead`, or
//!   * a low-level `Decoder` for **single‑object encoded** Avro bytes and Confluent
//!     **Schema Registry** framed messages.
//! * [`Reader`](crate::reader::Reader): a convenient, synchronous iterator over `RecordBatch` decoded from an OCF
//!   input. Implements [`Iterator<Item = Result<RecordBatch, ArrowError>>`] and
//!   `RecordBatchReader`.
//! * [`Decoder`](crate::reader::Decoder): a push‑based row decoder that consumes SOE framed Avro bytes and yields ready
//!   `RecordBatch` values when batches fill. This is suitable for integrating with async
//!   byte streams, network protocols, or other custom data sources.
//!
//! ## Encodings and when to use which type
//!
//! * **Object Container File (OCF)**: A self‑describing file format with a header containing
//!   the writer schema, optional compression codec, and a sync marker, followed by one or
//!   more data blocks. Use `Reader` for this format. See the Avro 1.11.1 specification
//!   (“Object Container Files”). <https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.11.1/specification/#object-container-files>
//! * **Single‑Object Encoding**: A stream‑friendly framing that prefixes each record body with
//!   the 2‑byte marker `0xC3 0x01` followed by the **8‑byte little‑endian CRC‑64‑AVRO Rabin
//!   fingerprint** of the writer schema, then the Avro binary body. Use `Decoder` with a
//!   populated `SchemaStore` to resolve fingerprints to full schemas.
//!   See “Single object encoding” in the Avro 1.11.1 spec.
//!   <https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.11.1/specification/#single-object-encoding>
//! * **Confluent Schema Registry wire format**: A 1‑byte magic `0x00`, a **4‑byte big‑endian**
//!   schema ID, then the Avro‑encoded body. Use `Decoder` with a `SchemaStore` configured
//!   for `FingerprintAlgorithm::Id` and entries keyed by `Fingerprint::Id`. See
//!   Confluent’s “Wire format” documentation.
//!   <https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/schema-registry/fundamentals/serdes-develop/index.html#wire-format>
//! * **Apicurio Schema Registry wire format**: A 1‑byte magic `0x00`, a **8‑byte big‑endian**
//!   global schema ID, then the Avro‑encoded body. Use `Decoder` with a `SchemaStore` configured
//!   for `FingerprintAlgorithm::Id64` and entries keyed by `Fingerprint::Id64`. See
//!   Apicurio’s “Avro SerDe” documentation.
//!   <https://www.apicur.io/registry/docs/apicurio-registry/1.3.3.Final/getting-started/assembly-using-kafka-client-serdes.html#registry-serdes-types-avro-registry>
//!
//! ## Basic file usage (OCF)
//!
//! Use `ReaderBuilder::build` to construct a `Reader` from any `BufRead`. The doctest below
//! creates a tiny OCF in memory using `AvroWriter` and then reads it back.
//!
//! ```
//! use std::io::Cursor;
//! use std::sync::Arc;
//! use arrow_array::{ArrayRef, Int32Array, RecordBatch};
//! use arrow_schema::{DataType, Field, Schema};
//! use arrow_avro::writer::AvroWriter;
//! use arrow_avro::reader::ReaderBuilder;
//!
//! # fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
//! // Build a minimal Arrow schema and batch
//! let schema = Schema::new(vec![Field::new("id", DataType::Int32, false)]);
//! let batch = RecordBatch::try_new(
//!     Arc::new(schema.clone()),
//!     vec![Arc::new(Int32Array::from(vec![1, 2, 3])) as ArrayRef],
//! )?;
//!
//! // Write an Avro OCF to memory
//! let buffer: Vec<u8> = Vec::new();
//! let mut writer = AvroWriter::new(buffer, schema.clone())?;
//! writer.write(&batch)?;
//! writer.finish()?;
//! let bytes = writer.into_inner();
//!
//! // Read it back with ReaderBuilder
//! let mut reader = ReaderBuilder::new().build(Cursor::new(bytes))?;
//! let out = reader.next().unwrap()?;
//! assert_eq!(out.num_rows(), 3);
//! # Ok(()) }
//! ```
//!
//! ## Streaming usage (single‑object / Confluent / Apicurio)
//!
//! The `Decoder` lets you integrate Avro decoding with **any** source of bytes by
//! periodically calling `Decoder::decode` with new data and calling `Decoder::flush`
//! to get a `RecordBatch` once at least one row is complete.
//!
//! The example below shows how to decode from an arbitrary stream of `bytes::Bytes` using
//! `futures` utilities. Note: this is illustrative and keeps a single in‑memory `Bytes`
//! buffer for simplicity—real applications typically maintain a rolling buffer.
//!
//! ```
//! use bytes::{Buf, Bytes};
//! use futures::{Stream, StreamExt};
//! use std::task::{Poll, ready};
//! use arrow_array::RecordBatch;
//! use arrow_avro::{reader::Decoder, errors::AvroError};
//!
//! /// Decode a stream of Avro-framed bytes into RecordBatch values.
//! fn decode_stream<S: Stream<Item = Bytes> + Unpin>(
//!     mut decoder: Decoder,
//!     mut input: S,
//! ) -> impl Stream<Item = Result<RecordBatch, AvroError>> {
//!     let mut buffered = Bytes::new();
//!     futures::stream::poll_fn(move |cx| {
//!         loop {
//!             if buffered.is_empty() {
//!                 buffered = match ready!(input.poll_next_unpin(cx)) {
//!                     Some(b) => b,
//!                     None => break, // EOF
//!                 };
//!             }
//!             // Feed as much as possible
//!             let decoded = match decoder.decode(buffered.as_ref()) {
//!                 Ok(n) => n,
//!                 Err(e) => return Poll::Ready(Some(Err(e))),
//!             };
//!             let read = buffered.len();
//!             buffered.advance(decoded);
//!             if decoded != read {
//!                 // decoder made partial progress; request more bytes
//!                 break
//!             }
//!         }
//!         // Return a batch if one or more rows are complete
//!         Poll::Ready(decoder.flush().transpose())
//!     })
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! ### Building and using a `Decoder` for **single‑object encoding** (Rabin fingerprints)
//!
//! The doctest below **writes** a single‑object framed record using the Avro writer
//! (no manual varints) for the writer schema
//! (`{"type":"record","name":"User","fields":[{"name":"id","type":"long"}]}`)
//! and then decodes it into a `RecordBatch`.
//!
//! ```
//! use std::sync::Arc;
//! use std::collections::HashMap;
//! use arrow_array::{ArrayRef, Int64Array, RecordBatch};
//! use arrow_schema::{DataType, Field, Schema};
//! use arrow_avro::schema::{AvroSchema, SchemaStore, SCHEMA_METADATA_KEY, FingerprintStrategy};
//! use arrow_avro::writer::{WriterBuilder, format::AvroSoeFormat};
//! use arrow_avro::reader::ReaderBuilder;
//!
//! # fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
//! // Register the writer schema (Rabin fingerprint by default).
//! let mut store = SchemaStore::new();
//! let avro_schema = AvroSchema::new(r#"{"type":"record","name":"User","fields":[
//!   {"name":"id","type":"long"}]}"#.to_string());
//! let _fp = store.register(avro_schema.clone())?;
//!
//! // Create a single-object framed record { id: 42 } with the Avro writer.
//! let mut md = HashMap::new();
//! md.insert(SCHEMA_METADATA_KEY.to_string(), avro_schema.json_string.clone());
//! let arrow = Schema::new_with_metadata(vec![Field::new("id", DataType::Int64, false)], md);
//! let batch = RecordBatch::try_new(
//!     Arc::new(arrow.clone()),
//!     vec![Arc::new(Int64Array::from(vec![42])) as ArrayRef],
//! )?;
//! let mut w = WriterBuilder::new(arrow)
//!     .with_fingerprint_strategy(FingerprintStrategy::Rabin) // SOE prefix
//!     .build::<_, AvroSoeFormat>(Vec::new())?;
//! w.write(&batch)?;
//! w.finish()?;
//! let frame = w.into_inner(); // C3 01 + fp + Avro body
//!
//! // Decode with a `Decoder`
//! let mut dec = ReaderBuilder::new()
//!   .with_writer_schema_store(store)
//!   .with_batch_size(1024)
//!   .build_decoder()?;
//!
//! dec.decode(&frame)?;
//! let out = dec.flush()?.expect("one batch");
//! assert_eq!(out.num_rows(), 1);
//! # Ok(()) }
//! ```
//!
//! See Avro 1.11.1 “Single object encoding” for details of the 2‑byte marker
//! and little‑endian CRC‑64‑AVRO fingerprint:
//! <https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.11.1/specification/#single-object-encoding>
//!
//! ### Building and using a `Decoder` for **Confluent Schema Registry** framing
//!
//! The Confluent wire format is: 1‑byte magic `0x00`, then a **4‑byte big‑endian** schema ID,
//! then the Avro body. The doctest below crafts two messages for the same schema ID and
//! decodes them into a single `RecordBatch` with two rows.
//!
//! ```
//! use std::sync::Arc;
//! use std::collections::HashMap;
//! use arrow_array::{ArrayRef, Int64Array, StringArray, RecordBatch};
//! use arrow_schema::{DataType, Field, Schema};
//! use arrow_avro::schema::{AvroSchema, SchemaStore, Fingerprint, FingerprintAlgorithm, SCHEMA_METADATA_KEY, FingerprintStrategy};
//! use arrow_avro::writer::{WriterBuilder, format::AvroSoeFormat};
//! use arrow_avro::reader::ReaderBuilder;
//!
//! # fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
//! // Set up a store keyed by numeric IDs (Confluent).
//! let mut store = SchemaStore::new_with_type(FingerprintAlgorithm::Id);
//! let schema_id = 7u32;
//! let avro_schema = AvroSchema::new(r#"{"type":"record","name":"User","fields":[
//!   {"name":"id","type":"long"}, {"name":"name","type":"string"}]}"#.to_string());
//! store.set(Fingerprint::Id(schema_id), avro_schema.clone())?;
//!
//! // Write two Confluent-framed messages {id:1,name:"a"} and {id:2,name:"b"}.
//! fn msg(id: i64, name: &str, schema: &AvroSchema, schema_id: u32) -> Result<Vec<u8>, Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
//!     let mut md = HashMap::new();
//!     md.insert(SCHEMA_METADATA_KEY.to_string(), schema.json_string.clone());
//!     let arrow = Schema::new_with_metadata(
//!         vec![Field::new("id", DataType::Int64, false), Field::new("name", DataType::Utf8, false)],
//!         md,
//!     );
//!     let batch = RecordBatch::try_new(
//!         Arc::new(arrow.clone()),
//!         vec![
//!           Arc::new(Int64Array::from(vec![id])) as ArrayRef,
//!           Arc::new(StringArray::from(vec![name])) as ArrayRef,
//!         ],
//!     )?;
//!     let mut w = WriterBuilder::new(arrow)
//!         .with_fingerprint_strategy(FingerprintStrategy::Id(schema_id)) // 0x00 + ID + body
//!         .build::<_, AvroSoeFormat>(Vec::new())?;
//!     w.write(&batch)?; w.finish()?;
//!     Ok(w.into_inner())
//! }
//! let m1 = msg(1, "a", &avro_schema, schema_id)?;
//! let m2 = msg(2, "b", &avro_schema, schema_id)?;
//!
//! // Decode both into a single batch.
//! let mut dec = ReaderBuilder::new()
//!   .with_writer_schema_store(store)
//!   .with_batch_size(1024)
//!   .build_decoder()?;
//! dec.decode(&m1)?;
//! dec.decode(&m2)?;
//! let batch = dec.flush()?.expect("batch");
//! assert_eq!(batch.num_rows(), 2);
//! # Ok(()) }
//! ```
//!
//! See Confluent’s “Wire format” notes: magic byte `0x00`, 4‑byte **big‑endian** schema ID,
//! then the Avro‑encoded payload.
//! <https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/schema-registry/fundamentals/serdes-develop/index.html#wire-format>
//!
//! ## Schema resolution (reader vs. writer schemas)
//!
//! Avro supports resolving data written with one schema (“writer”) into another (“reader”)
//! using rules like **field aliases**, **default values**, and **numeric promotions**.
//! In practice this lets you evolve schemas over time while remaining compatible with old data.
//!
//! *Spec background:* See Avro’s **Schema Resolution** (aliases, defaults) and the Confluent
//! **Wire format** (magic `0x00` + big‑endian schema id + Avro body).
//! <https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.11.1/specification/#schema-resolution>
//! <https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/schema-registry/fundamentals/serdes-develop/index.html#wire-format>
//!
//! ### OCF example: rename a field and add a default via a reader schema
//!
//! Below we write an OCF with a *writer schema* having fields `id: long`, `name: string`.
//! We then read it with a *reader schema* that:
//! - **renames** `name` to `full_name` via `aliases`, and
//! - **adds** `is_active: boolean` with a **default** value `true`.
//!
//! ```
//! use std::io::Cursor;
//! use std::sync::Arc;
//! use arrow_array::{ArrayRef, Int64Array, StringArray, RecordBatch};
//! use arrow_schema::{DataType, Field, Schema};
//! use arrow_avro::writer::AvroWriter;
//! use arrow_avro::reader::ReaderBuilder;
//! use arrow_avro::schema::AvroSchema;
//!
//! # fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
//! // Writer (past version): { id: long, name: string }
//! let writer_arrow = Schema::new(vec![
//!     Field::new("id", DataType::Int64, false),
//!     Field::new("name", DataType::Utf8, false),
//! ]);
//! let batch = RecordBatch::try_new(
//!     Arc::new(writer_arrow.clone()),
//!     vec![
//!         Arc::new(Int64Array::from(vec![1, 2])) as ArrayRef,
//!         Arc::new(StringArray::from(vec!["a", "b"])) as ArrayRef,
//!     ],
//! )?;
//!
//! // Write an OCF entirely in memory
//! let mut w = AvroWriter::new(Vec::<u8>::new(), writer_arrow)?;
//! w.write(&batch)?;
//! w.finish()?;
//! let bytes = w.into_inner();
//!
//! // Reader (current version):
//! //  - record name "topLevelRecord" matches the crate's default for OCF
//! //  - rename `name` -> `full_name` using aliases (optional)
//! let reader_json = r#"
//! {
//!   "type": "record",
//!   "name": "topLevelRecord",
//!   "fields": [
//!     { "name": "id", "type": "long" },
//!     { "name": "full_name", "type": ["null","string"], "aliases": ["name"], "default": null },
//!     { "name": "is_active", "type": "boolean", "default": true }
//!   ]
//! }"#;
//!
//! let mut reader = ReaderBuilder::new()
//!   .with_reader_schema(AvroSchema::new(reader_json.to_string()))
//!   .build(Cursor::new(bytes))?;
//!
//! let out = reader.next().unwrap()?;
//! assert_eq!(out.num_rows(), 2);
//! # Ok(()) }
//! ```
//!
//! ### Confluent single‑object example: resolve *past* writer versions to the topic’s **current** reader schema
//!
//! In this scenario, the **reader schema** is the topic’s *current* schema, while the two
//! **writer schemas** registered under Confluent IDs **1** and **2** represent *past versions*.
//! The decoder uses the reader schema to resolve both versions.
//!
//! ```
//! use std::sync::Arc;
//! use std::collections::HashMap;
//! use arrow_avro::reader::ReaderBuilder;
//! use arrow_avro::schema::{

//!     // Decode each whole frame, then drain completed rows with flush()
//!     let mut total_rows = 0usize;
//!
//!     let consumed0 = decoder.decode(&frame0)?;
//!     assert_eq!(consumed0, frame0.len(), "decoder must consume the whole frame");
//!     while let Some(batch) = decoder.flush()? { total_rows += batch.num_rows(); }
//!
//!     let consumed1 = decoder.decode(&frame1)?;
//!     assert_eq!(consumed1, frame1.len(), "decoder must consume the whole frame");
//!     while let Some(batch) = decoder.flush()? { total_rows += batch.num_rows(); }
//!
//!     // We sent 2 records so we should get 2 rows (possibly one per flush)
//!     assert_eq!(total_rows, 2);
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! ## Schema evolution and batch boundaries
//!
//! `Decoder` supports mid‑stream schema changes when the input framing carries a schema
//! fingerprint (single‑object or Confluent). When a new fingerprint is observed:
//!
//! * If the current `RecordBatch` is **empty**, the decoder switches to the new schema
//!   immediately.
//! * If not, the decoder finishes the current batch first and only then switches.
//!
//! Consequently, the schema of batches produced by `Decoder::flush` may change over time,
//! and `Decoder` intentionally does **not** implement `RecordBatchReader`. In contrast,
//! `Reader` (OCF) has a single writer schema for the entire file and therefore implements
//! `RecordBatchReader`.
//!
//! ## Performance & memory
//!
//! * `batch_size` controls the maximum number of rows per `RecordBatch`. Larger batches
//!   amortize per‑batch overhead; smaller batches reduce peak memory usage and latency.
//! * When `utf8_view` is enabled, string columns use Arrow’s `StringViewArray`, which can
//!   reduce allocations for short strings.
//! * For OCF, blocks may be compressed; `Reader` will decompress using the codec specified
//!   in the file header and feed uncompressed bytes to the row `Decoder`.
//!
//! ## Error handling
//!
//! * Incomplete inputs return parse errors with "Unexpected EOF"; callers typically provide
//!   more bytes and try again.
//! * If a fingerprint is unknown to the provided `SchemaStore`, decoding fails with a
//!   descriptive error. Populate the store up front to avoid this.

/// A low‑level, push‑based decoder from Avro bytes to Arrow `RecordBatch`.
///
/// `Decoder` is designed for **streaming** scenarios:
///
/// * You *feed* freshly received bytes using `Self::decode`, potentially multiple times,
///   until at least one row is complete.
/// * You then *drain* completed rows with `Self::flush`, which yields a `RecordBatch`
///   if any rows were finished since the last flush.
///
/// Unlike `Reader`, which is specialized for Avro **Object Container Files**, `Decoder`
/// understands **framed single‑object** inputs and **Confluent Schema Registry** messages,
/// switching schemas mid‑stream when the framing indicates a new fingerprint.
///
/// ### Supported prefixes
///
/// On each new row boundary, `Decoder` tries to match one of the following "prefixes":
///
/// * **Single‑Object encoding**: magic `0xC3 0x01` + schema fingerprint (length depends on
///   the configured `FingerprintAlgorithm`); see `SINGLE_OBJECT_MAGIC`.
/// * **Confluent wire format**: magic `0x00` + 4‑byte big‑endian schema id; see
///   `CONFLUENT_MAGIC`.
///
/// The active fingerprint determines which cached row decoder is used to decode the following
/// record body bytes.
///
/// ### Schema switching semantics
///
/// When a new fingerprint is observed:
///
/// * If the current batch is empty, the decoder switches immediately;
/// * Otherwise, the current batch is finalized on the next `flush` and only then
///   does the decoder switch to the new schema. This guarantees that a single `RecordBatch`
///   never mixes rows with different schemas.
///
/// ### Examples

/// * **`strict_mode`**: Opt‑in to stricter union handling (default: `false`).
///   See `Self::with_strict_mode`.
/// * **`reader_schema`**: Optional reader schema (projection / evolution) used when decoding
///   values (default: `None`). See `Self::with_reader_schema`.
/// * **`projection`**: Optional projection of **top‑level record fields** by index (default: `None`).
///
///   If set, the effective reader schema is **pruned** to include only the projected fields, in the
///   specified order:
///
///   * If a reader schema is provided, that schema is pruned.
///   * Otherwise, a reader schema is derived from the writer schema and then pruned.
///   * For streaming `Decoder` with multiple writer schemas and no reader schema, a projected reader
///     schema is derived **per writer schema** in the `SchemaStore`.
///
///   See `Self::with_projection`.
/// * **`writer_schema_store`**: Required for building a `Decoder` for single‑object or
///   Confluent framing. Maps fingerprints to Avro schemas. See `Self::with_writer_schema_store`.
/// * **`active_fingerprint`**: Optional starting fingerprint for streaming decode when the
///   first frame omits one (rare). See `Self::with_active_fingerprint`.
///
