-------------------------------------
[~sliebau] I like your validName approach. Can you create a PR? It is much
easier for me to review that way :)
> Connect Rest API allows creating connectors with an empty name
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-4930
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4930
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: KafkaConnect
> Affects Versions: 0.10.2.0
> Reporter: Sönke Liebau
> Priority: Minor
>
> The Connect Rest API allows to deploy connectors with an empty name field,
> which then cannot be removed through the api.
> Sending the following request:
> {code}
> {
> "name": "",
> "config": {
> "connector.class":
> "org.apache.kafka.connect.tools.MockSourceConnector",
> "tasks.max": "1",
> "topics": "test-topic"
>
> }
> }
> {code}
> Results in a connector being deployed which can be seen in the list of
> connectors:
> {code}
> [
> "",
> "testconnector"
> ]{code}
> But cannot be removed via a DELETE call, as the api thinks we are trying to
> delete the /connectors endpoint and declines the request.
> I don't think there is a valid case for the connector name to be empty so
> perhaps we should add a check for this. I am happy to work on this.
