I don't see any update on the wiki about it. Did you forget to hit "save"?
Can you also provide some background? I am not sure right now if I
understand the proposed changes?

Thanks Sagar, this makes sense to me -- we clearly need additional changes

avoid breaking IQ when using this feature, but I agree with continuing to
restrict
FKJ since they wouldn't stop working without it, and would become much
harder
to reason about (than they already are) if we did enable them to use it.
And of course, they can still multicast the final results of a FKJ, they
just can't
mess with the internal workings of it in this way.

Hi All,
I made a couple of edits to the KIP which came up during the code review.
Changes at a high level are:
1) KeyQueryMetada enhanced to have a new method called partitions().
2) Lifting the restriction of a single partition for IQ. Now the
restriction holds only for FK Join.
Updated KIP:

Hi Sagar,
I would not drop the support for dropping records. I would also not
return null from partitions(). Maybe an Optional can help here. An
empty
Optional would mean to use the default partitioning behavior of the
producer. So we would have:
- non-empty Optional, non-empty list of integers: partitions to send
the
record to
- non-empty Optional, empty list of integers: drop the record
- empty Optional: use default behavior
What do other think?

Hello Bruno/Chris,
Since these are the last set of changes(I am assuming haha), it
would
be
great if you could review the 2 options from above so that we can
close
the
voting. Of course I am happy to incorporate any other requisite
changes.
Thanks!

Thanks Bruno for the great points.
I see 2 options here =>
1) As Chris suggested, drop the support for dropping records in the
partitioner. That way, an empty list could signify the usage of a
default
partitioner. Also, if the deprecated partition() method returns
null
thereby signifying the default partitioner, the partitions() can
return
an
empty list i.e default partitioner.
2) OR we treat a null return type of partitions() method to signify
the
usage of the default partitioner. In the default implementation of
partitions() method, if partition() returns null, then even
partitions()
can return null(instead of an empty list). The RecordCollectorImpl
code
can
also be modified accordingly. @Chris, to your point, we can even
drop
the
support of dropping of records. It came up during KIP discussion,
and I
thought it might be a useful feature. Let me know what you think.
3) Lastly about the partition number check. I wanted to avoid the
throwing
of exception so I thought adding it might be a useful feature. But
as
you
pointed out, if it can break backwards compatibility, it's better
to
remove
it.
Thanks!
Sagar.

+1 to Bruno's concerns about backward compatibility. Do we
actually
need
support for dropping records in the partitioner? It doesn't seem
necessary
based on the motivation for the KIP. If we remove that feature, we
could
handle null and/or empty lists by using the default partitioning,
equivalent to how we handle null return values from the existing
partition
method today.

Hi Sagar,
Thank you for the updates!
I do not intend to prolong this vote thread more than needed,
but I
still have some points.
The deprecated partition method can return null if the default
partitioning logic of the producer should be used.
With the new method partitions() it seems that it is not possible
to
use
the default partitioning logic, anymore.
Also, in the default implementation of method partitions(), a
record
that would use the default partitioning logic in method
partition()
would be dropped, which would break backward compatibility since
Streams
would always call the new method partitions() even though the
users
still implement the deprecated method partition().
I have a last point that we should probably discuss on the PR and
not
on
the KIP but since you added the code in the KIP I need to mention
it.
I
do not think you should check the validity of the partition
number
since
the ProducerRecord does the same check and throws an exception.
If
Streams adds the same check but does not throw, the behavior is
not
backward compatible.
Best,
Bruno

Thanks Bruno/Chris,
Even I agree that might be better to keep it simple like the way
Chris
suggested. I have updated the KIP accordingly. I made couple of
minor
changes to the KIP:
1) One of them being the change of return type of partitions
method
from
List to Set. This is to ensure that in case the implementation
of
StreamPartitoner is buggy and ends up returning duplicate
partition numbers, we won't have duplicates thereby not trying
to
send to
the same partition multiple times due to this.
2) I also added a check to send the record only to valid
partition
numbers
and log and drop when the partition number is invalid. This is
again
to
prevent errors for cases when the StreamPartitioner
implementation
has
some
bugs (since there are no validations as such).
3) I also updated the Test Plan section based on the suggestion
from
Bruno.
4) I updated the default implementation of partitions method
based on
the
great catch from Chris!
Let me know if it looks fine now.
Thanks!
Sagar.

Hi,
I am favour of discarding the sugar for broadcasting and leave
the
broadcasting to the implementation as Chris suggests. I think
that
is
the cleanest option.

Hi all,
I think it'd be useful to be more explicit about broadcasting
to
all
topic
partitions rather than add implicit behavior for empty cases
(empty
optional, empty list, etc.). The suggested enum approach would
address
that
nicely.
It's also worth noting that there's no hard requirement to add
sugar
for
broadcasting to all topic partitions since the API already
provides
the
number of topic partitions available when calling a stream
partitioner.
If
we can't find a clean way to add this support, it might be
better
to
leave
it out and just let people implement this themselves with a
line of
Java
8
streams:
return IntStream.range(0,
numPartitions).boxed().collect(Collectors.toList());
Also worth noting that there may be a bug in the default
implementation
for
the new StreamPartitioner::partitions method, since it doesn't
appear
to
correctly pick up on null return values from the partition
method
and
translate them into empty lists.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Sagar,
I do not see an issue with using an empty list together with
an
empty
Optional. A non-empty Optional that contains an empty list
would
just
say that there is no partition to which the record should be
sent.
If
there is no partition, the record is dropped.
An empty Optional might be a way to say, broadcast to all
partitions.
Alternatively -- to make it more explicit -- you could return
an
object
with an enum and a list of partitions. The enum could have
values
SOME,
ALL, and NONE. If the value is SOME, the list of partitions
contains
the
partitions to which to send the record. If the value of the
enum
is
ALL
or NONE, the list of partitions is not used and might be even
null
(since in that case the list should not be used and it would
be a
bug
to
use it).

Thank you Bruno/Matthew for your comments.
I agree using null does seem error prone. However I think
using a
singleton
list of [-1] might be better in terms of usability, I am
saying
this
because the KIP also has a provision to return an empty list
to
refer
to
dropping the record. So, an empty optional and an empty list
have
totally
different meanings which could get confusing.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks!

I would prefer changing the return type of partitions() to
Optional<List<Integer>> and using Optional.empty() as the
broadcast
value. IMO, The chances that an implementation returns
null
due
to
a
bug
is much higher than that an implementation returns an
empty
Optional
due
to a bug.
