-----------------------------------
Labels: needs-kip usability (was: usability)
> Standardize configs across tools
> --------------------------------

> Key: KAFKA-1299
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1299
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: tools
> Reporter: Neha Narkhede
> Priority: Major
> Labels: needs-kip, usability
>
> We have quite a few tools that have a set of options relevant to the tool but
> then also need a way to expose the specific properties of either a consumer
> and a producer. It makes the tool pretty unwieldy to use if we clutter the
> tool options with the individual producer/consumer options. What's more, this
> approach makes it difficult to maintain the tools with every new config we
> add on our clients.
> Currently, the approach ReplayLogProducer follows is to only expose the
> options related to the tool and leave the producer/consumer specific options
> to be accepted through the generic --property option.
> There might be another way to reduce the clutter but it will be good to
> standardize one convention across all tools
