Motivation

When creating a topic a user may want to know what the broker defaults will be for their topic before creating it.

 Proposed Changes

We propose allowing `name=null` for a `ConfigResource` with `type=TOPIC`. This will allow us to get the default topic configs from the broker through an already existing path.

Compatibility, Deprecation, and Migration Plan

Rejected Alternatives

  • New AdminClient Method. This would expand the surface area of AdminClient and the Protocol with benefit of being more explicit.

  • Return config information from AdminClient.createTopics(validate=true). This would piggyback on a common user pattern of (come up with possible configs, validate, repeat), but would require much larger changes to the protocol since `createTopics` returns void now.

  • No labels
