----------------------------------
Labels: auto-deprioritized-major (was: stale-major)
> Kafka sink: default topic should not need to exist
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-6928
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6928
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Connectors / Kafka
> Affects Versions: 1.2.1, 1.3.0
> Reporter: Erik van Oosten
> Priority: Major
> Labels: auto-deprioritized-major
>
> When using a Kafka sink, the defaultTopic needs to exist even when it is
> never used. It would be nice if fetching partition information for the
> default topic would be delayed until the moment a topic is actually used.
> Cause: {{FlinkKafkaProducerBase.open}} fetches partition information for the
> default topic.
> In addition, it would be nice if we could signal that the defaultTopic is not
> needed by passing {{null}}. Currently, a value for the defaultTopic is
> required.
