----------------------------------
Summary: Add utility to convert between TopicPartition and
PartitionInfo
Key: KAFKA-4998
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4998
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Timo Meijer
A common usecase when working with manual assignments is to fetch information
about the topics and partitions, and then do your assignment.
The interface for fetching the metadata returns a List<PartitionInfo>, but
assign requires a Collection<TopicPartition>.
Converting between this classes is easy, but a bit verbose. Adding a simple
conversion to a utility class, or on the classes themselves, would improve the
API and user experience.
