Saisai Shao commented on SPARK-4960:
------------------------------------

Hi TD, thanks a lot for your suggestions. What I concerned about changing the 
interceptor pattern to T => Iterator\[T\] is that it will narrow the usage 
scenario of this functionality, at least it cannot meet the requirement 
[~c...@koeninger.org] mentioned for KafkaInputDStream. Is it necessary to add 
just T => Iterator\[T\] pattern in receiver rather than moving into DStream 
transformation?

For the problem you mentioned, I think maybe we can create a interceptor 
receiver to ship the data from actual receiver and do some transformation 
before storing, so each actual receiver will have a shadow interceptor receiver 
to intercept the data, this might fix the problem but will increase the 
implementation complexity.

I will re-think about my design and try to figure out a better way if possible. 
Thanks a lot.

> Sometimes it is good to intercept a message received through a receiver and 
> modify / do something with the message before it is stored into Spark. This 
> is often referred to as the interceptor pattern. There should be general way 
> to specify an interceptor function that gets applied to all receivers.
