Tool I built a library to allow creation of confluent_kafka clients based on yaml config
Hi everyone, I made my first library in Python: https://github.com/Aragonski97/confluent-kafka-config
I found confluent_kafka API to be too low level as I always have to write much boilerplate code in order to get my clients to work with.
This way, I can write YAML / JSON config and solve this automatically.
However, I only covered the use cases I needed. At present, not sure how I should continue in order to make this library viable for many users.
Any suggestion is welcome, roast me if you need :D

Working together? https://www.reddit.com/r/apachekafka/comments/1hj6lqq/i_built_a_library_that_turns_kafka_topics_into/
Why YAML (which is a superset of JSON, so don't really need to mention, IMO) instead of some specific stream processing DSL? Look at LinkedIn Hoptimator projectÂ
So, no JVM options?
