Start Confluent Schema Registry in windows

Question

I have windows environment and my own set of kafka and zookeeper running. To use custom objects, I started to use Avro. But I needed to get the registry started. Downloaded Confluent platform and ran this:

$ ./bin/schema-registry-start ./etc/schema-registry/schema-registry.properties
/c/Confluent/confluent-3.0.0-2.11/confluent-3.0.0/bin/schema-registry-run-class: line 103: C:\Program: No such file or directory

Then I see this on the installation page:

"Confluent does not currently support Windows. Windows users can download and use the zip and tar archives, but will have to run the jar files directly rather than use the wrapper scripts in the bin/ directory."

I was wondering how do I go about starting confluent schema registry in Windows environment ?

Looked at contents of scripts and it is difficult to decipher.

Thanks

Someone has created Windows .bat files as Ewen Cheslack-Postava suggests

https://github.com/renukaradhya/confluentplatform/tree/master/bin/windows

I saved schema-registry-run-class.bat and schema-registry-start.bat into my \confluent\bin\windows directory and then was able to run Schema Registry with

C:\confluent\bin\windows\schema-registry-start.bat C:\confluent\etc\ schema-registry\schema-registry.properties
