Sriharsha Chintalapani commented on KAFKA-1507:
-----------------------------------------------
[~junrao] [~jkreps] Thanks for the details above. Based on the comments by Jay
we should be dropping creation of topics from TopicMetaData request and add
createTopicRequest to the api along with topic creation properties such
partitions , replication etc.
And in KafkaProducer.send if the metadatarequest comes out empty we should be
making a call to createTopic .
In this case should we also have a boolean flag in KafkaProducer for
createTopic . If both producer.createTopic and "auto.create.topics.enable" on
broker set to true we will create a topic with user supplied config or using
the defaults.
I think auto creation of topics config should be on the producer side rather
than the broker having it on two places might be confusing.
Please let me know what you think of the above approach. Thanks.
