Randall Hauch resolved KAFKA-3814.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
Apologies. There is a {{name}} property. Not sure what I was thinking.
> Connectors should be able to know their name

> Key: KAFKA-3814
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3814
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: KafkaConnect
> Affects Versions: 0.9.0.1
> Reporter: Randall Hauch
> Assignee: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently a connector implementation does not have access to the unique name
> that Kafka Connect framework uses for each connector. For example, the
> [http://docs.confluent.io/3.0.0/connect/userguide.html#rest-interface|REST
> API] of the workers make use of this name.
> The connectors could use this name in a number of ways, not the least of
> which is using the name in log messages to help the administrator correlate
> messages with configured connectors.
> It is possible to work around this by using an additional configuration
> property, although it is not ideal since the property value and connector
> name might diverge, making it harder to correlate the two.
