Matthias J. Sax updated KAFKA-1299: ----------------------------------- 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 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
