------------------------------------
Summary: Documentation bug: Add information for key.serializer and
value.serializer to New Producer Config sections
Key: KAFKA-2412
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2412
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Jeremy Fields
Priority: Minor
As key.serializer and value.serializer are required options when using the new
producer, they should be mentioned in the documentation ( here and svn
http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#newproducerconfigs )
Appropriate values for these options exist in javadoc and producer.java
examples; however, not everyone is reading those, as is the case for anyone
setting up a producer.config file for mirrormaker.
A sensible default should be suggested, such as
org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringSerializer
Or at least a mention of the key.serializer and value.serializer options along
with a link to javadoc
Thanks
