Alex Gray created KAFKA-1234:
--------------------------------
Summary: All kafka-run-class.sh to source in user config file (to
set env vars like KAFKA_OPTS)
Key: KAFKA-1234
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1234
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: config
Affects Versions: 0.8.0
Reporter: Alex Gray
Priority: Trivial
We are using the distributed version of kafka:
http://apache.mirrors.lucidnetworks.net/kafka/0.8.0/kafka_2.8.0-0.8.0.tar.gz
And we would like to set some environment variables, particularly KAFKA_OPTS
when the kafka service starts.
In other words, when someone does a "sudo service kafka start" we would like to
set some environment variables.
We cannot do this *without* modifying either /etc/init.d/kafka or
bin/kafka-run-class.sh, and we don't want to modify files that we don't own.
The solution is to have kafka source in a user specific file that may have
these environment variables set.
I'm attaching the patch file to show you what I mean.
