Damian Guy updated KAFKA-4125: ------------------------------ Fix Version/s: (was: 1.1.0) 1.2.0 > Provide low-level Processor API meta data in DSL layer > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: KAFKA-4125 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4125 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: streams > Reporter: Matthias J. Sax > Priority: Minor > Labels: kip > Fix For: 1.2.0 > > > For Processor API, user can get meta data like record offset, timestamp etc > via the provided {{Context}} object. It might be useful to allow uses to > access this information in DSL layer, too. > The idea would be, to do it "the Flink way", ie, by providing > RichFunctions; {{mapValue()}} for example. > Is takes a {{ValueMapper<V1, V2>}} that only has method > {noformat} > V2 apply(V1 value); > {noformat} > Thus, you cannot get any meta data within apply (it's completely "blind"). > We would add two more interfaces: {{RichFunction}} with a method > {{open(Context context)}} and > {noformat} > RichValueMapper<V1, V2> extends ValueMapper<V1, V2>, RichFunction > {noformat} > This way, the user can chose to implement Rich- or Standard-function and > we do not need to change existing APIs. Both can be handed into > {{KStream.mapValues()}} for example. Internally, we check if a Rich > function is provided, and if yes, hand in the {{Context}} object once, to > make it available to the user who can now access it within {{apply()}} -- or > course, the user must set a member variable in {{open()}} to hold the > reference to the Context object. > KIP: > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-159%3A+Introducing+Rich+functions+to+Streams -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
