Apache Kafka Configuration
======================

Some parameters can be configured using Gerrit config file.

Sample config
---------------------

```
[plugin "@PLUGIN@"]
        bootstrapServers = localhost:9092
```

All the Apache Kafka properties configuration needs to
be defined in gerrit.config using a lower camel-case notation.

Example: bootstrapServers correspond to the Apache Kafka property
bootstrap.servers.

See [Apache Kafka Producer Config](http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#producerconfigs)
for a full list of available settings and the values allowed.
