it would be nice to have a dry-run or validate ability added to this kip. since we are offloading validation to a 3rd party implementor a random user can't know a priori (based solely on kafka configs) whether a call should succeed without actually creating the topic.
a similar case is in connect where there is a separate endpoint <https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/connect/runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/connect/runtime/rest/resources/ConnectorPluginsResource.java#L49-L58> to attempt to validate a connect configuration without actually creating the connector. thanks dan On Thu, Jan 5, 2017 at 7:34 AM, Ismael Juma <ism...@juma.me.uk> wrote: > Hi all, > > We've posted "KIP-108: Create Topic Policy" for discussion: > > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP- > 108%3A+Create+Topic+Policy > > Please take a look.
