SchemaRegistrySerde: Avro deserialization without magic byte using lookup by topic name as fallback like in serialization

[1-alex98]

Issue submitter TODO list

• I've searched for an already existing issues here
• I'm running a supported version of the application which is listed here and the feature is not present there

Is your proposal related to a problem?

I have a producer on Kafka. I have no control about the producer and the producer does not set the magic byte and schema id in avro that would tell a consumer what schema to use. However I want to inspect the messages in Kafka UI.

Describe the feature you're interested in

I want to be able to set the correct schema.
When Serializing messages the code in SchemaRegistrySerde has a look into the registry using the topic name.
Suggestion:
When Deserializing:

1. Have a look at magic byte and schema ID
2. If no schema ID set have a look in the registry using the topic name and try this schema
3. Fail otherwise
   -> Suggestion add step 2

Describe alternatives you've considered

Setting the magic bytes and schema ids in messages. However in a lot of cases the read does not control the producer.
Setting the correct schema via UI.

Version you're running

Applies to all versions

Additional context

kafka-ui/kafka-ui-api/src/main/java/com/provectus/kafka/ui/serdes/builtin/sr/SchemaRegistrySerde.java

Currently only reads the schema from the message it-self
