John Wang commented on KAFKA-291: --------------------------------- examples (in java): Producer: instead of: Properties props = new Properties(); props.put("zk.connect", "localhost:2181"); props.put("serializer.class", "kafka.serializer.DefaultEncoder"); ProducerConfig producerConfig = new ProducerConfig(props); we can do: ProducerConfig producerConfig = new ProducerConfigBuilder().setZkConnect("localhost:2181").setSerializerClass("kafka.serializer.DefaultEncoder").build(); Consumer: instead of: Properties props = new Properties(); props.put("zk.connect", _zookeeperUrl); props.put("consumer.timeout.ms", _kafkaSoTimeout); props.put("groupid", _consumerGroupId); ConsumerConfig consumerConfig = new ConsumerConfig(props); we can do: ConsumerConfig consumerConfig = new ConsumerConfigBuilder().setGroupId(_consumerGroupId).setZkConnect(_zookeeperUrl).setGroupId(_consumerGroupId).build(); > Add builder to create configs for consumer and broker > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-291 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-291 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: core > Affects Versions: 0.7 > Reporter: John Wang > Attachments: builderPatch.diff > > > Creating Consumer and Producer can be cumbersome because you have to remember > the exact string for the property to be set. And since these are just > strings, IDEs cannot really help. > This patch contains builders that help with this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
