METRON-1543 Unable to Set Parser Output Topic in Sensor Config
The only way to alter the output topic for a Parser topology is to manually
launch the topology using the CLI with the `-ot` parameter. The user needs to
be able to define this as part of the sensor's parser configuration so that the
value is stored in Zookeeper and can be altered in the Management UI and
launched from Ambari.
## Manual Testing
1. Launch the development environment.
```
cd metron-deployment/develoment/centos6
vagrant up
```
1. Validate the development environment.
* Ensure the 'Service Check' is successful.
* Ensure alerts are visible in the 'Alerts UI'.
1. Stop all topologies.
1. Launch the REPL.
```
vagrant ssh
sudo su -
source /etc/default/metron
cd $METRON_HOME
bin/stellar -z $ZOOKEEPER
```
1. Change the output topic for the 'bro' sensor.
```
[Stellar]>>> conf := CONFIG_GET("PARSER","bro")
{
"parserClassName":"org.apache.metron.parsers.bro.BasicBroParser",
"sensorTopic":"bro",
"parserConfig": {}
}
[Stellar]>>> conf := SHELL_EDIT(conf)
{
"parserClassName":"org.apache.metron.parsers.bro.BasicBroParser",
"sensorTopic":"bro",
"parserConfig": {},
"outputTopic": "new-topic"
}
[Stellar]>>> CONFIG_PUT("PARSER", conf, "bro")
[Stellar]>>> CONFIG_GET("PARSER", "bro")
{
"parserClassName":"org.apache.metron.parsers.bro.BasicBroParser",
"sensorTopic":"bro",
"parserConfig": {},
"outputTopic": "new-topic"
}
```
1. Start the Parser topologies again using Ambari.
1. Wait for the Bro parser topology to start. Then ensure that the parser
is publishing messages to "new-topic".
```
[Stellar]>>> %define bootstrap.servers := "node1:6667"
node1:6667
[Stellar]>>> KAFKA_GET("new-topic")
[]
[Stellar]>>> KAFKA_GET("new-topic")
