In certain scenarios users of the
KafkaSource
in the flink-connector-kafka might want to provide their own KafkaConsumer. Right now this is not possible as consumer is created in the KafkaPartitionSplitReader which makes customisation impossible.Proposal is to let users pass
KafkaConsumerFactory
when building the KafkaSource.Builder will have a default implementation which creates the KafkaConsumer the same as it is done now.
