[jira] [Commented] (FLUME-2852) Kafka Source/Sink should optionally read/write Avro Datums

Tristan Stevens commented on FLUME-2852:
----------------------------------------

I'll take this one as and when FLUME-2820 is done, if that's okay?

> Currently the Kafka Sink only writes the event body to Kafka rather than an Avro Datum. This works fine when being used with a Kafka Source, or when being used with Kafka Channel, however it does mean that any Flume headers are lost when transported via Kafka.
> Request is to implement an equivalent of the Kafka Channel's parseAsFlumeEvent parameter to the sink/source so that optionally Avro Datums can be read from and written to Kafka.
