------------------------------
Component/s: security
config
> Allow password file in server.properties to separate 'secrets' from standard
> configs
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-4294
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4294
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: config, security
> Reporter: Ryan P
> Priority: Major
>
> Java's keytool(for Windows) allows you to specify the keystore/truststore
> password with an external file in addition to a string argument.
> -storepass:file secret.txt
> http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/keytool.html
> It would be nice if Kafka could offer the same functionality allowing
> organizations to separate concerns between standard configs and 'secrets'.
> Ideally Kafka would add a secrets file property to the broker config which
> could override any ssl properties which currently exist within the broker
> config. Since the secrets file property is only used to override existing
> SSL/TLS properties the change maintains backward compatibility.
