Christian Posta created KAFKA-3376:
--------------------------------------
Summary: have sensible defaults for the command-line tools to
facilitate local development
Key: KAFKA-3376
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3376
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Christian Posta
for the command-line tools, it's great we can send in params to connect to
brokers/zk clusters, etc.
would be great if some of those params would come with sensible defaults so we
don't have to add them for each command we run. for example, for --zookeeper we
could have it default to "localhost:2181" or default to checking an environment
variable "KAFKA_TOOLS_ZOOKEEPER" or something.
or, even better, maybe we could do something like we had in apache
activemq-apollo, where we had a command shell that implements all of these
commands and can hold "context" information about what brokers and zk clusters
exist
https://github.com/christian-posta/activemq-apollo/blob/trunk/apollo-cli/src/main/scala/org/apache/activemq/apollo/cli/Apollo.scala
so we don't have 10+ shell scripts?
