Project status ? #67

Open jrevillard opened 3 years ago

jrevillard commented 3 years ago

Dear all,

@devshawn, I just would like some information about the project status as we did not here from you since nearly 2 months now.

I think that you made a really good job and kafka-gitops seems to be interesting for many persons including me. I personally integrated it into my company processes to manage our Kafka clusters and I would really like to see some feature integrated like Schema management etc... Of course, I will collaborate as I already did for #52.

Wouldn't it be the good time to open the management to more than one person ? I can perfectly understand that this is really time consuming to maintain this kind of project alone but if a small group could be built I'm pretty sure that everything might be easier.

What do you think ?

Best, Jerome

Hey @jrevillard,

Agreed, it can be hard and I'm happy the tool has helped you out. I apologize for not being around and letting your PR sit for so long.

I'd be open to adding some more maintainers in the future after discussing some code style + code structure that I'd like to follow since I can be a bit picky in my projects :)

I also booked time this weekend to get your PR reviewed and merged.

devshawn commented 3 years ago

A new release will be pushed this weekend with the latest PRs incorporated. We will discuss the schema registry addition after that and possibly open up the project to a few more contributors. I was quite backlogged but I no longer have that backlog and will get new releases pushed regularly for kafka-gitops.

Expect a new release by the end of this weekend, hopefully sooner. 🚀

devshawn commented 3 years ago

FYI, a new release with the newly merged PRs should be coming by this weekend. Getting to this fell off my radar.

Hey @devshawn, when will the new release be available? Thanks!

alex036 commented 2 years ago

@devshawn Any updates? Should potentially think about getting additional maintainers for this project.

devshawn commented 2 years ago

Hi all,

The next release will be pushed this week. I’ll look into more maintainers in the future. Apologies for the wait.

Hello @devshawn ! Thank you for this awesome tool!

I experience the need of supporting in settings.topics.defaults.* more than just replication, and I'd be happy to contribute, but I'm not sure, whether this repo is actually maintained.

So I'm wondering, how big are the chances that a potential MR will be approved and merged "timely"?

Thank you!

jrevillard commented 2 years ago

So ?...

danieleascione commented 1 year ago

Hello all, is the project being abandoned?

That would be a pity! It can be a great donation to the open-source community!

devshawn commented 1 year ago

Hi all, it's still maintained, I just haven't been working on it lately. I'll be making updates and making a new release soon.

I'm happy to review and accept PRs.

joschi commented 1 year ago

@devshawn Glad to hear this!

I have recently forked this project and made a release because I needed some bugs fixed and an additional feature: https://github.com/joschi/kafka-gitops/

Happy to contribute the changes back, although I had to revert one or two commits to make the tests work again.

This being said, what do you think about joining efforts with https://github.com/kafka-ops/julie, which seems to have the same focus and approach for managing Kafka clusters? (CC: @purbon)

joschi commented 1 year ago

Looks like https://github.com/kafka-ops/julie is now also officially unmaintained.

Which leaves us with the newcomer https://github.com/streamthoughts/jikkou. 🥲 https://medium.com/@fhussonnois/why-is-managing-kafka-topics-still-such-a-pain-introducing-jikkou-4ee9d5df948
