> Let Kafka consumer show something when it fails to read one topic out of
> topic list
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: FLINK-5368
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5368
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Kafka Connector
> Reporter: Sendoh
> Assignee: Sendoh
> Priority: Critical
>
> As a developer when reading data from many topics, I want Kafka consumer to
> show something if any topic is not available. The motivation is we read many
> topics as list at one time, and sometimes we fail to recognize that one or
> two topics' names have been changed or deprecated, and Flink Kafka connector
> doesn't show the error.
> My proposed change would be either to throw RuntimeException or to use
> LOG.error(topic + "doesn't have any partition") if partitionsForTopic is null
> at this function.
> https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/flink-connectors/flink-connector-kafka-0.9/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/streaming/connectors/kafka/FlinkKafkaConsumer09.java#L208
> Any suggestion is welcome.
