Grayson Chao commented on KAFKA-2412: ------------------------------------- Also, this info https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+patch+review+tool doesn't seem to be written to work with the documentation/site which are stored in SVN and not Git. I can work on submitting an RB for this patch if that's preferred for documentation updates. > Documentation bug: Add information for key.serializer and value.serializer to > New Producer Config sections > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2412 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2412 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Jeremy Fields > Assignee: Grayson Chao > Priority: Minor > Labels: newbie > Attachments: KAFKA-2412.diff > > > As key.serializer and value.serializer are required options when using the > new producer, they should be mentioned in the documentation ( here and svn > http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#newproducerconfigs ) > Appropriate values for these options exist in javadoc and producer.java > examples; however, not everyone is reading those, as is the case for anyone > setting up a producer.config file for mirrormaker. > A sensible default should be suggested, such as > org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringSerializer > Or at least a mention of the key.serializer and value.serializer options > along with a link to javadoc > Thanks -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
