Tom De Wolf commented on KAFKA-5146: ------------------------------------ [~ijuma] this bug is exactly what would solve it. And if only the junit test include it then it should only be a test dependency, not a real dependency. Best to change the priority field of this bug and add 2.1.0 as affected version, can you do that? > Kafka Streams: remove compile dependency on connect-json > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-5146 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5146 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: streams > Affects Versions: 0.10.1.0, 0.10.2.0, 0.10.2.1 > Reporter: Michael Noll > Priority: Minor > > We currently have a compile-dependency on `connect-json`: > {code} > <dependency> > <groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId> > <artifactId>connect-json</artifactId> > <version>0.10.2.0</version> > <scope>compile</scope> > </dependency> > {code} > The snippet above is from the generated POM of Kafka Streams as of 0.10.2.0 > release. > AFAICT the only reason for that is because the Kafka Streams *examples* > showcase some JSON processing, but that’s it. > First and foremost, we should remove the connect-json dependency, and also > figure out a way to set up / structure the examples so we that we can > continue showcasing JSON support. Alternatively, we could consider removing > the JSON example (but I don't like that, personally). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
