------------------------------------
Summary: Kafka environment configuration (kafka-env.sh)
Key: KAFKA-1566
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1566
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: tools
Reporter: Cosmin Lehene
Assignee: Cosmin Lehene
Fix For: 0.8.2, 0.9.0
It would be useful (especially for automated deployments) to have an
environment configuration file that could be sourced from the launcher files
(e.g. kafka-run-server.sh).
This is how this could look like kafka-env.sh
{code}
export KAFKA_JVM_PERFORMANCE_OPTS="-XX:+UseCompressedOops
-XX:+DisableExplicitGC -Djava.awt.headless=true \ -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:PermSize=48m
-XX:MaxPermSize=48m -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=20
-XX:InitiatingHeapOccupancyPercent=35' %>" export KAFKA_HEAP_OPTS="'-Xmx1G
-Xms1G' %>" export KAFKA_LOG4J_OPTS="-Dkafka.logs.dir=/var/log/kafka"
{code}
kafka-server-start.sh
{code}
...
source $base_dir/config/kafka-env.sh
...
{code}
This approach is consistent with Hadoop and HBase. However the idea here is to
be able to set these values in a single place without having to edit startup
scripts.
