Cluster and SSL config via file about kafka-webview HOT 7 CLOSED

We have a development environment for multiple developers that is based on docker-compose. It would be nice to have a way to check in the config for the setup, so that not every dev has to do it over and over again.

Especially since the SSL config is pretty extensive.

As of today there exists no way to define clusters via the config.yml file. I'm trying to make sure I understand the use case for defining them there, do you have a large number of clusters?

To clarify our use case a bit more:

Goal would be to start kafka-webview with the pre-configured local docker-compose based Kafka cluster. This would also include SSL since our DevEnv setup already uses that between the Kafka cluster and the producer/consumers.

Is it possible for you to build a base image with the database already configured with your setup?

from kafka-webview.

Yes this would also be an option. It's not ideal, but since the images are "baked in" the DevEnv anyway, it would be ok.

So all of the 'configuration' for kafka-webview is maintained within an internal sql-lite database, not flat configuration files. Because of this I think it'd be difficult to get kafka-webview to load a set of configs from a file on startup along with figuring out how to load the SSL keystores, encrypt passwords, etc..

Hm, too bad :( Maybe you can add support for external config in a future release. We would very much like to use kafka-webview, but without config it's not really feasible. Thank you for your answers, though!
