Interface ConfigProvider

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, Configurable
All Known Implementing Classes:
DirectoryConfigProvider, EnvVarConfigProvider, FileConfigProvider
public interface ConfigProvider extends Configurable, Closeable
A provider of configuration data, which may optionally support subscriptions to configuration changes.

Implementations are required to safely support concurrent calls to any of the methods in this interface.

Kafka Connect discovers implementations of this interface using the Java ServiceLoader mechanism. To support this, implementations of this interface should also contain a service provider configuration file in META-INF/services/org.apache.kafka.common.config.provider.ConfigProvider.
