> 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
> Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0
> Reporter: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
> Assignee: Gwen Shapira
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.9.1.0
>
>
> 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.
