StructuredNoise

This is a utility to generate Avro-schema-templated noise

Features:

README-driven development ;)

Reads an avro scheme indicated by --schema and writes noise to STDOUT
If given --base64 it converts the avro binary data to Basee64 before sending it to STDOUT
Respects a --messages-per-second command
Outputs data conforming to the Avro Single Object Message spec

####TODO FEATURES:

--decode should decode avro coming in via STDIN, respecting --base64 flag, writing JSON hashes to STDOUT
--template filename should support a JSON-structure template for Avro messages, with 'fill in the blanks' as like.. * or something.
--malicious-compliance will toggle generating edge-case data compliant with given Avro types
