Well, the `configure()` method is there to configure the serde :) Hence, it might be a good place to instantiate the state of the serde, ie, to create a `SchemaStore` instance.
For the passed in map: the full `StreamsConfig` will be passed into it, hence, you can add any configuration you want to the global `KafkaStreams` configuration and it will be forwarded. Hope this helps. -Matthias On 10/28/19 5:34 AM, Bart van Deenen wrote: > Hi all > > I need a custom serde for Kafka.
