------------------------------------------
Summary: Move PartitionAssignor to public API
Key: KAFKA-8703
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8703
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: clients
Reporter: Sophie Blee-Goldman
Assignee: Sophie Blee-Goldman
Currently the PartitionAssignor, which is meant to be a pluggable interface,
sits in the internal package. It should be part of the public API, so we are
deprecating the old consumer.internal.PartitionAssignor in favor of a new
consumer.PartitionAssignor.
We also want to take the opportunity to refactor the interface a bit, so as to
achieve
# Better separation of user/assignor and consumer provided metadata
# Easier to evolve API
Due to the way assignors are instantiated, moving to a new PartitionAssignor
interface will be fully compatible for most users except those who have
implemented the internal.PartitionAssignor
