Gwen Shapira commented on KAFKA-2671:
-------------------------------------
You can start Kafka with KafkaConfig object (I believe LinkedIn are doing
this). Since you can create KafkaConfig from properties object, I'm not sure
why this additional interface is needed.
> Enable starting Kafka server with a Properties object

> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core
> Reporter: Ashish K Singh
> Assignee: Ashish K Singh
>
> Kafka, as of now, can only be started with a properties file and override
> params. It makes life easier for management applications to be able to start
> Kafka with a properties object programatically.
> The changes required to enable this are minimal, just a tad bit of
> refactoring of kafka.Kafka. The changes must maintain current behavior intact.
