--------------------------------------------
Summary: Allow copycat connector plugins to be aliased to simpler
names
Key: KAFKA-2422
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2422
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: copycat
Reporter: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
Assignee: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
Priority: Minor
Configurations of connectors can get quite verbose when you have to specify the
full class name, e.g.
connector.class=org.apache.kafka.copycat.file.FileStreamSinkConnector
It would be nice to allow connector classes to provide shorter aliases, e.g.
something like "file-sink", to make this config less verbose. Flume does this,
so we can use it as an example.
