Bert Roos commented on KAFKA-6007: ---------------------------------- [~gharris1727] I created a reproduction, but in the end, it showed this issue is resolved. You find the reproduction here: https://github.com/Bert-R/kafka-6007-repro. Apparently, something else was preventing my SMT to load. Based on that, I believe this issue can be set to Resolved. > Connect can't validate against transforms in plugins.path > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-6007 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6007 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: KafkaConnect > Affects Versions: 0.11.0.0, 0.11.0.1, 1.0.0 > Reporter: Stephane Maarek > Assignee: Konstantine Karantasis > Priority: Major > > Kafka Connect can't validate a custom transformation if placed in plugins > path. > Here's the output I get on the validate call: > {code:java} > Invalid value com.mycorp.kafka.transforms.impl.FlattenSinkRecord for > configuration transforms.Flat.type: Class > com.mycorp.kafka.transforms.impl.FlattenSinkRecord could not be found. > Invalid value null for configuration transforms.Flat.type: Not a > Transformation > "recommended_values": [ > "com.mycorp.kafka.transforms.Flatten$Key", > "com.mycorp.kafka.transforms.Flatten$Value", > "com.mycorp.kafka.transforms.impl.FlattenSinkRecord", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.Cast$Key", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.Cast$Value", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.ExtractField$Key", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.ExtractField$Value", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.Flatten$Key", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.Flatten$Value", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.HoistField$Key", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.HoistField$Value", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.InsertField$Key", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.InsertField$Value", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.MaskField$Key", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.MaskField$Value", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.RegexRouter", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.ReplaceField$Key", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.ReplaceField$Value", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.SetSchemaMetadata$Key", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.SetSchemaMetadata$Value", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.TimestampConverter$Key", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.TimestampConverter$Value", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.TimestampRouter", > "org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.ValueToKey"], > {code} > As you can see the class appear in the recommended values (!) but can't be > picked up on the validate call. > I believe it's because the recommender implements class discovery using > plugins: > https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/connect/runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/connect/runtime/ConnectorConfig.java#L194 > But the class inference itself doesn't: > https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/connect/runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/connect/runtime/ConnectorConfig.java#L199 > (I'm not an expert in class loading though, just a guess...
