Randall Hauch resolved KAFKA-6387.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Because of the inability to maintain backward compatibility of the behavior,
I'm withdrawing this request and marking this issue as WONTFIX.
> Worker's producer and consumer configs should inherit from worker configs
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-6387
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6387
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: KafkaConnect
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: Randall Hauch
> Labels: needs-kip
>
> Currently, the worker configuration file defines the connection properties
> for the three separate types of connections being made to the Kafka cluster:
> # the worker group membership,
> # producers for source connectors,
> # the consumers for sink connectors.
> The configs are namespaced because to properly support things like
> interceptors where the configs for 2 and 3 would conflict (same config name,
> different value).
> However, it would be beneficial when such control is not required for the
> producers and consumers to inherit the top-level configurations yet be able
> to override them with the {{producer.}} and {{consumer.}} namespaced
> configurations. This way the producer- and consumer-specific configurations
> need only be specified if/when they need to override the top-level
> configurations. This may be necessary, for example, to have different ACLs
> than the connector tasks compared to the producers and consumers.
> This will require a minimal KIP to explain the new behavior.
