             Summary: Provide kafka-client library as a proper java Jigsaw 
module
                 Key: KAFKA-15516
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15516
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: clients
    Affects Versions: 3.5.1
            Reporter: Chad Preisler


When a client application depends on the kafka-client library the jlink tool 
can not be used to generate a custom JDK because the client jar is treated as 
an automatic module. 

The module-info class can be generated for the JAR files using the jdeps tool 
or a module-info can be created by hand for each jar. I believe the current 
structure of the Kafka code can be used as is.

It would be ideal if the Kafka build could properly bundle module-info in the 
client jar.
