# Requirement
This sublime package depends on the [avro-tools jar](http://central.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/avro/avro-tools/1.7.4/avro-tools-1.7.4.jar):

```
#!/bin/bash
java -jar /usr/local/bin/avro-tools-1.7.7.jar "$@"
```
* /usr/local/bin/avro-tools-1.7.7.jar can be downloaded from http://central.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/avro/avro-tools/1.7.4/avro-tools-1.7.4.jar
and then add exec permissions with "chmod u+x /usr/local/bin/avro-tools"
* Verify that it works with opening new terminal and submitting 'avro-tools'
