KAFKA-13442: REST API endpoint for fetching a connector's config def #11491

@viktorsomogyi viktorsomogyi commented Nov 12, 2021

This PR implements a new Connect REST endpoint to fetch the config definition of a connector. This new API uses the HTTP GET method and is under the /connector-plugins/{connector-type}/config path.
The motivation of this is that some UI management tools could benefit from fetching the config definitions to help the user with a sample connector configuration. Using the config definition of the connector for sample generation is an easy way to solve this problem.

Committer Checklist (excluded from commit message)

@mimaison hahh, thanks, I tried looking for an existing KIP but couldn't find any. Wanted to publish this KIP yesterday but it seems like you were faster. I'll keep on commenting and pushing your KIP then. :)
Do you already have a PR too for that?

I want to make a few changes to the KIP before restarting the discussion on the mailing list. Hopefully later on this week (or early next!)
