Description

Now, we support "new" filesystems using schema. For instance, it's possible to do:

.apply(TextIO.write().to("hdfs://foo"))

Of course, if:

.apply(TextIO.write().to("/path/to/foo"))

works, users may be tempted to use:

.apply(TextIO.write().to("file://path/to/foo"))

which actually doesn't work today.
