We have a requirement where we need to send .avro file as an input request to our API's. Really stuck at this point. If any detail example provided would be more appreciated.
Just use Java interop: https://github.com/intuit/karate#calling-java
You need to write a helper (start with a static method) to convert JSON to Avro and vice versa. I know teams using this for gRPC. Read this thread for tips: https://github.com/intuit/karate/issues/412
Also there is even a "karate-grpc" project: https://github.com/pecker-io/karate-grpc

Just like how the response information can be accessed through response, responseHeaders etc, is there any way to access the request information? I noticed that request information is not available through variables. Are there are any workarounds to access this information?
I understand that we build the request ourselves in the test scenario using the Given, When steps, so it may sound redundant. The reason I'm looking for this is I would like to access the complete request details Karate would've built using our test definition. The idea is to make this information available to a java class which can be called through the Java Interop. More specifically, I'm trying to build a swagger request and response validator to be used from karate.
The workaround I am using is to explicitly create variables like apipath and apimethod and use them with path and method. This does the job, but still one has to ensure that these variables are explicitly set. It will be cleaner if whatever request Karate built is just accessible through a variable.
Please raise a feature request. We can look at making this available as karate.request or similar.
I was using Aerospike since 3.4 and Python client 1.0.31.
Currently upgraded to Aerospike 3.6.3 and Python client 1.0.50.
Since Python client doesn't have Async writes feature, I am planning to go with Golang. Also read that Go fits well with Aerospike (http://www.aerospike.com/blog/go-aerospike-a-perfect-match/)
I would like to know what are the consequence I will face on changing the client and how to handle them.
One of the issue I see is serialization. As I was using python client since Aerospike 3.4, How to handle older serialized data like float values. I Need not worry on new data as recent releases support floats natively.
Thanks in Advance.
Well, "Python client doesn't have Async" needs to come with a big yet. The C client 4.0.0 provides async operations. The current work being done in the Python client is compatibility with Python >= 3.4. Async is something that is planned.
The main thing to consider when moving from one language client to another, or when combining different SDKs is how to handle 'unsupported' types. You'll have to review your data for where it will contain serialized data in as_bytes, encoded as AS_BYTES_PYTHON. See the 'Serialization' section in the Python API doc. You want to come up with a common custom serialization scheme to allow your Go client to read that data.
I am using Savon 2.11.1 as a Ruby SOAP client.
Savon uses Nori to translate the SOAP response XML to a Hash. Nori supports the option convert_dashes_to_underscores which by default converts all dashes in SOAP response to underscores.
I tried to use this option in the client's constructor but I got the following error message
Savon::UnknownOptionError: Unknown global option: :convert_dashes_to_underscores.
Why is this option not supported for Savon? Any workaround?
Thanks

I don't know why it isn't supported. I guess because nobody needed it up until now. I propose you extend the code, create the unit tests, upload the sources to github and send a pull request to the main project. Simple as that.
You can also look into the documentation where you'll find that the following symbols are available to control conversion
:camelcase
:lower_camelcase
:upcase
:none

I want to access a Cassandra instance in an Iphone application and i need an objectiveC client
for that. I couldnt find one, Thrift is supposed to support ObjectiveC but I couldnt figure out how to do that. If anyone has any knowledge on the subject it is very much appriciated.
Apache Thrift has a generator for ObjC. (Complete list).
If you will distribute the application I would considered the alternative to create a server with simple interface (eg. http) that in turns access the cassandra database.
But if you are the only user it could work with direct database access.
If you're not sure about how to get Thrift to generate the bindings then go with what Schildmeijer posted. Use a simple web server running php + phpcassa or any language of your choice that comes with a high level client library -- list here: High level clients.
You can use some open source libraries to expose resources from Cassandra as JSON or XML then use NSURLRequests to do the work. If you go with XML then Google's GDataXML is an excellent choice of parser, if you go with JSON then json-library on Google Code is another great choice.
Have fun!
