Summary of Changes

Hello @MemonaAmirAbdulHaq, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request enhances the Apache Beam documentation for Go developers by providing a concrete example of how to utilize schema-transform features for nested field access. The update clarifies the process of working with schema-aware PCollections in Go, making the documentation more practical and up-to-date.

Highlights

  • Go Schema Example Added: Introduced a new Go code example demonstrating how to access nested fields within schema-aware PCollections, specifically extracting a post code from a nested shipping address struct.
  • Documentation Update: The programming-guide.md file has been updated to include this practical Go example, replacing a previous statement that indicated a lack of native Go support for Schema transforms.
  • Clarity Improvement: Enhanced the introductory explanation for Go developers on using schema-aware PCollections, guiding them on defining structs for schema inference and direct field access.

🧠 New Feature in Public Preview: You can now enable Memory to help Gemini Code Assist learn from your team's feedback. This makes future code reviews more consistent and personalized to your project's style. Click here to enable Memory in your admin console.

Changelog
  • website/www/site/content/en/documentation/programming-guide.md
    • Removed an outdated statement indicating that Beam did not yet support Schema transforms natively in Go.
    • Added a Go code snippet demonstrating the definition of nested structs (ShippingAddress, Purchase) and the extraction of a nested field (PostCode) using beam.ParDo.
    • Updated the descriptive text for Go's schema usage to explain how schemas are inferred from struct types and how to access fields directly in transforms.
