Gwen Shapira commented on KAFKA-2412: ------------------------------------- Thank you for contributing! Documenting our configuration and producer behavior is super important, so I appreciate you taking this on. I have two content related comments: 1. I'm not sure your recommendations for "commonly used" are actually common... Perhaps just pointing to the default implementations will be clear enough? Especially regarding String for value... I feel like we are pointing people toward an implementation we don't necessarily recommend. 2. Your explanation for "in-flight" uses the term "in-flight", perhaps it can be made more clear? I'm not sure how common this term is. I don't really see where increasing this number can cause suboptimal batching. The "waiting for batches" behavior is controlled in linger.ms. Also, some warning that high in-flight value will increase throughput but can cause out-of-order arrivals? > 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)
