OmKafka - Kafka version compatibility #885

Need kafka version compatibility metrics for rsyslog - omkafka

ajiraj2411 commented 4 years ago

Can you help me on this @rgerhards ?

rgerhards commented 4 years ago

There is no specific dependency as far as I know. Should work with everything. If you intend to use very old versions of kafka, you might want to check with librdkafka project, which is the connectivity layer we use.

Thanks @rgerhards . We are currently using 0.10.1.1. We are planning to use latest stable kafka version only. Librdkakfa also supporting newer version librdkafka-kafka compatibility.

If possible can we add this compatibility metrics in the omkafka plugin document?

I don't think we should duplicate a dependency matrix. I don't like the idea to maintain that as it is completely out of our domain. Maybe just add the fact that we rely on librdkafka? Would you be up for a PR?
