Jay Kreps commented on KAFKA-130: --------------------------------- I will add some docs, can I get a +1 on this? > 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 > Assignee: Jay Kreps > Priority: Minor > Attachments: kafka-console-producer.patch > > > 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
