Feature request: Add indicator for custom configuration in topic-list

Open ppuschmann opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hi,

I think it would be really helpful if we had a new column in the topic-list to indicate a topic has custom configration, like retention.ms. cleanup.policy and partitions are already visible as a column, which helps a lot to identify topics that are configured in a custom way.

By adding another column, just with an indicator for custom configuration, we would improve the overview of this special configuration, especially given the case the configuration of Kafka-topics isn't managed via Terraform or other tools.

Hey Paul, are you referring to the topic list where all topics are listed (url /topics)?

I would assume that we have to make the config settings you want to have listed there configurable then. Showing all configs from all topics that have been configured/overriden on the topic level would quickly consume too much space for many clusters I believe. So if I understand your wish correctly I believe it would be reasonable to include the topic configurations which you would like to have listed as part of the topic list. Does that make sense?

This might be done -- closing but we can reopen if this is found not to be done
