--------------------------------------
Summary: decouple kafka.PARTITION_KEY from kafka.KEY
Key: CAMEL-16060
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-16060
Project: Camel
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: camel-kafka
Affects Versions: 2.25.3, 3.7.0
Reporter: Jens Kordowski
Currently, the camel-kafka producer requires the definition of
kafka.PARTITION_KEY *and* kafka.KEY to specify the partition to send to. While
the key is usually used to determine the partition to send to, I don't
understand the hard limitation on this header, when specifically defining the
exact partition to send to anyway (via kafka.PARTITION_KEY).
Also, this is not clearly stated in the documentation.
Not sure, if this qualifies as bug or improvement, looks like a limitation to
me. I can create a PR, if desired.
