NIFI-3363: PutKafka NPE with User-Defined partition
This PR is meant for 0.x branch.
- Marked PutKafka Partition Strategy property as deprecated, as
Kafka 0.8 client doesn't use 'partitioner.class' as producer property, we
don't have to specify it.
- Changed Partition Strategy property from a required one to a dynamic
property, so that existing processor config can stay in valid state.
- Fixed partition property to work.
- Route a flow file if it failed to be published due to invalid partition.

> Key: NIFI-3363
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3363
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 0.4.0, 0.5.0, 0.6.0, 0.4.1, 0.5.1, 0.7.0, 0.6.1,
> 1.1.0, 0.7.1, 1.1.1, 1.0.1
> Environment: By looking at the release tags contained in a commit
> that added User-Defined partition strategy (NIFI-1097 22de23b), it seems all
> NiFi versions since 0.4.0 is affected.
> Reporter: Koji Kawamura
> Assignee: Koji Kawamura
>
> NullPointerException is thrown because PutKafka tries to put null into
> properties since following if statements doesn't cover
> USER_DEFINED_PARTITIONING.
> {code: title=PutKafka.java buildKafkaConfigProperties}
> String partitionStrategy = context.getProperty(PARTITION_STRATEGY).getValue();
> String partitionerClass = null;
> if (partitionStrategy.equalsIgnoreCase(ROUND_ROBIN_PARTITIONING.getValue())) {
> partitionerClass = Partitioners.RoundRobinPartitioner.class.getName();
> } else if
> (partitionStrategy.equalsIgnoreCase(RANDOM_PARTITIONING.getValue())) {
> partitionerClass = Partitioners.RandomPartitioner.class.getName();
> }
> properties.setProperty("partitioner.class", partitionerClass); // Happens here
> {code}
> A naive fix for this would be adding one more if statement so that it puts
> 'partitioner.class' property only if partitionerClass is set.
> However, while I was testing the fix, I found following facts, that revealed
> this approach wouldn't be the right solution for this issue.
> In short, we don't have to set 'partitioner.class' property with Kafka 0.8.x
> client in the first place. I assume it's there because PutKafka came through
> a long history..
> h2. PutKafka history analysis
> - PutKafka used to cover Kafka 0.8 and 0.9
> - Around the time Kafka 0.9 was released, PutKafka added 'partitioner.class'
> via NIFI-1097: start using new API. There were two client libraries
> kafka-clients and kafka_2.9.1, both 0.8.2.2.
> - Then PublishKafka is added for Kafka 0.9, at this point, we could add
> 'partition' property to PublishKafka, but we didn't do that for some reason.
> PublishKafka doesn't support user defined partition as of this writing.
> NIFI-1296.
> - The code adding 'partitioner.class' has been left in PutKafka.
> - Further, we separated nar into 0.8, 0.9 and 0.10.
> - Now only PutKafka(0.8) uses 'partitioner.class' property, but 0.8 client
> doesn't use that property. So we don't need that code at all.
> h2. Then, how should we fix this?
> Since PutKafka in both master and 0.x branch specifically uses Kafka 0.8.x
> client. We can simply remove the codes adding 'partitioner.class', probably
> PARTITION_STRATEGY processor property, too.
> h2. Expected result after fix
> - Users can specify Kafka partition with PutKafka 'partition' property, but
> no need to specify 'partition strategy', NullPointerException won't be thrown
> - A warning log, that used to be logged in nifi-app.log won't be logged any
> more: {code}2017-01-18 13:53:33,071 WARN [Timer-Driven Process Thread-9]
> o.a.k.clients.producer.ProducerConfig The configuration partitioner.class =
> null was supplied but isn't a known config.{code}
