David Arthur updated KAFKA-363:
-------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
Here's a go at a simple fix for this. I added a "name" attribute to the
CompressionCodec case objects and added getCompressionCodec(String).
> Replace numerical compression codes in config with something human readable

> Currently we have compression codes like 1 or 2, which is pretty unintuitive.
> What does 1 mean?
> We should replace these with human-readable codes like "snappy", "gzip", or
> "none" and change the documentation. We can continue to support the existing
> integer codes in addition for backwards compatibility with existing
> configurations.
