Add support for selecting topic dynamically for a Kafka offramp #1296

Open anuprout opened 3 years ago

Describe the problem you are trying to solve Add support for selecting topic dynamically for a Kafka offramp. Right now the topic is set based on the offramp configuration. However this can be passed at run time for each event.

Describe the solution you'd like Enhance the Kafka offramp to override the topic name based on metadata (lets say $topic) associated with an event.

We're trying to standardize the way connectors handle this kind of non data events. KV is right now the template and it uses metadata for issuing commands "get/put/scan/delete/cas". Would it make sense to add metadata capabilities to the kafak connectors?

Subscripbe / unsubscribe / change topics for events?

Adding this feature to Kafka connector would be nice. Thanks
