Xingcan Cui commented on FLINK-8538:
------------------------------------
Thanks for the comments, [~twalthr] and [~fhueske]. Yes, the {{flink-kafka}} is
just a temporary module and I'll remove it once I find proper locations for the
codes. It's surely better if we can unify all the version/format specific Kafka
connectors. However, that may not be a short-term work and thus I'll adapt to
the current implementations. I think my next task would be FLINK-8537. So feel
free to assign FLINK-8630.
> Add a Kafka table source factory with JSON format support
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-8538
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8538
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Table API & SQL
> Reporter: Timo Walther
> Assignee: Xingcan Cui
> Priority: Major
>
> Similar to CSVTableSourceFactory a Kafka table source factory for JSON should
> be added. This issue includes improving the existing JSON descriptor with
> validation that can be used for other connectors as well. It is up for
> discussion if we want to split the KafkaJsonTableSource into connector and
> format such that we can reuse the format for other table sources as well.
