Ismael Juma updated KAFKA-5726:
-------------------------------
Labels: needs-kip newbie usability (was: usability)
> KafkaConsumer.subscribe() overload that takes just Pattern without
> ConsumerRebalanceListener
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-5726
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5726
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: consumer
> Affects Versions: 0.11.0.0
> Reporter: Yeva Byzek
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: needs-kip, newbie, usability
>
> Request: provide {{subscribe(Pattern pattern)}} overload, similar to
> {{subscribe(Collection<String> topics)}},
> Today, for a consumer to subscribe to topics based on a regular expression
> (i.e. {{Pattern}}), the only method option also requires to pass in a
> {{ConsumerRebalanceListener}}. This is not user-friendly to require this
> second argument. It seems {{new NoOpConsumerRebalanceListener()}} has to be
> used.
> Use case: multi datacenter, allowing easier subscription to multiple topics
> prefixed with datacenter names, just by using a pattern subscription.
