             Summary: Ability to mark STELLAR functions as deprecated or preview
                 Key: METRON-628
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-628
             Project: Metron
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.3.0
            Reporter: Otto Fowler


With the addition of new  functions and capabilities to STELLAR we may need or 
want to do a couple of things

* Deprecate a function for sunsetting purposes
* Mark a function as "preview" or similarly for the introduction a proposed api 
and functions that should be field tested and may not be stable.  Currently the 
stability of the api is tied to the implicit stability of the project.

STELLAR should have a mechanism to mark functions with these and other possible 
future decorations, as well as some capability to report these markings.

This reporting may need to cover these use cases at least:
1. Build time logging of markings ( similar to java deprecation warnings )
2. Some method to validate configurations with embedded STELLAR expressions.
