Jun Rao commented on KAFKA-130:
-------------------------------
Thanks for the patch Jay. It looks good. About the propertyOpt, could you add a
description about its purpose and format? Also, it's not used in the init
method of LineMessageReader.
> Provide a default producer for receiving messages from STDIN

> Key: KAFKA-130
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-130
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 0.6
> Reporter: Felix GV

> It would be useful to provide a default producer we can fire up that reads
> from STDIN and sends one message per line to the broker.
> The most obvious use case for this is to pipe a tail -f command into it, to
> tail log files as they're generated. Making it depend on STDIN seems more
> flexible than a producer that just tails files though.
