Mickael Maison created KAFKA-19404: -------------------------------------- Summary: Connect's plugin.path documentation does not match behavior Key: KAFKA-19404 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-19404 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Task Components: connect Reporter: Mickael Maison
The doc currently states: {quote}The list should consist of top level directories that include any combination of: a) directories immediately containing jars with plugins and their dependencies b) uber-jars with plugins and their dependencies c) directories immediately containing the package directory structure of classes of plugins and their dependencies {quote} In practice plugins are found even if they are in nested directories. For example we can set {{plugin.path}} to {{/var/plugins}} and it will find all these plugins: {noformat} /var/plugins └── nested1 └── nested2 ├── plugin1 │ └── plugin1.jar ├── plugin2 │ └── plugin2.jar ├── plugin3 └── plugin3.jar {noformat} I think we should adjust the documentation to match the current behavior -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
