--------------------------------------------
Summary: Add Connect REST API to list available connector classes
Key: KAFKA-3316
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3316
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: copycat
Reporter: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
Assignee: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
Fix For: 0.10.0.0
Each worker process's REST API should have an endpoint that can list available
connector classes. This can use the same Reflections code as we used in
KAFKA-2422 to find matching connector classes based on a short name. This is
useful both for debugging and for any systems that want to work with different
connect clusters and be able to tell which clusters support which connectors.
We may need a new top-level resource to support this. We have /connectors
already, but that refers to instantiated connectors that have been named. In
contrast, this resource would refer to the connector classes (uninstantiated).
We might be able to use the same resource to, e.g., lookup config info in
KAFKA-3315 (which occurs before connector instantiation).
