...

Currently we don't expose information about whether a connector is a source or sink. This is useful when, e.g., categorizing connectors in a UI. Given naming conventions we try to encourage you might be able to determine this via the connector's class name, but that isn't reliable. We would also like to expose a Connector's version information.

Public Interfaces

We will modify the following REST API endpoint for Connect:

...

[ 
  { 
    "class": "org.apache.kafka.connect.file.FileStreamSourceConnector",
    "type": "SOURCE"source",
	"version": "0.11.0.0"
  },
  { 
    "class": "org.apache.kafka.connect.file.FileStreamSinkConnector",
    "type": "SINKsink",
	"version": "0.11.0.0"
  }
]
