Mickael Maison updated KAFKA-13839:
-----------------------------------
Component/s: KafkaConnect
> Example connectors Maven artifact should use provided dependencies
> ------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-13839
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13839
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: KafkaConnect
> Reporter: Jakub Scholz
> Priority: Major
>
> The {{connect-file}} artifact which contains the sample
> {{FileStreamSourceConnector}} and {{FileStreamSourceConnector}} connectors
> has currently 2 Maven dependencies:
> * {{connect-api}}
> * {{slf4j}}
> Both are marked as runtime dependencies. So when the connectors are pulled
> from Maven repository to be added to the plugin path, they pull with them
> also these dependencies and other transitive dependencies (such as
> {{{}kafka-clients{}}}). This seems unnecessary since all these dependencies
> are already in the classpath of Kafka itself and do not need to be there
> again in the plugin path. They should be configured as {{provided}} so that
> they are not downloaded with the connectors.
> This is now more relevant after
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13748, when the connectors are
> not anymore on the main classpath and downloading them from Maven to the
> plugin path would be more common.
