Version 1 of this API exposes
config_source
which describes the origin of a particular config (topic, broker, default value, etc). We have tooling that manages topic-level configs so being able to filter onconfig_source
would be very helpful.As far as I can tell,
DescribeConfigs
is used in two places:describe_topic
anddescribe_configs
(broker configs). The former is noted to be an alpha API while the latter is not.I'm not sure about the compatibility goals of this library (version 1 of this API was introduced in Kafka 1.1.0), so I just wanted to start a conversation.
