----------------------------------
Summary: Auto-generate documentation for topic-level configuration
Key: KAFKA-3809
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3809
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: James Cheng
Assignee: James Cheng
The documentation for topic-level configuration is not auto-generated from the
code. configuration.html still contains hand-maintained documentation.
I noticed this because I wanted to set message.timestamp.type on a topic, and
didn't see that it was supported, but grepped through the code and it looked
like it was.
The code to auto-generate the docs is quite close, but needs some additional
work. In particular, topic-level configuration is different from all the other
ConfigDefs in that topic-level configuration docs list the broker-level config
that they inherit from. We would need to have a way to show what broker-level
config applies to each topic-level config.
