Kafka input and output connectors removed from `benthos list` #79

Closed SDBlackwood closed 2 months ago

SDBlackwood commented 2 months ago

I see that when running benthos list | rg kafka, kafka is not present on 4.35.0. Also trying benthos create http_server//kafka produces: unrecognised output type 'kafka'.

What is the status of this repo versus the https://github.com/redpanda-data/connect one? Are the kafka connectors being removed from here?

Hey @SDBlackwood 👋 It's covered in this blog post, but the short version is that the original repo has been renamed to https://github.com/redpanda-data/connect and the core Benthos library has been pulled out and moved into this repo which retains the original MIT license and a few core IO components, such as the HTTP ones. The rest of the 3rd party components, such as the Kafka ones, will remain in the Connect repo I linked and most of them have been relicensed to Apache 2 and a few of them to the Redpanda Enterprise license.

Thanks for that @mihaitodor
