dene14 opened a new issue #7511: Support config files in yaml/json
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-druid/issues/7511
 
 
   ### Description
   Druid configuration files (runtime properties) clearly structured as a flattened json/yaml file (well, with some edge cases). So why don't we have support for it natively?
   
   ### Motivation
   It would be beneficial to have and ability to pass settings in yaml/json for anyone who uses configuration management tool. Also it will make it more easy for people to share their configuration management modules with community.
   
   For e.g. I have multiple druid setups under my control, feature used in these clusters are quite different. So I ended up with building template that takes  values from YAML and put it into right places. However, every time new configuration item added I should handle it in configuration file template with IFs and other pieces of ugly code.
   
   For the reference:
   Config file: https://github.com/dene14/druid-aws-ecs/blob/k8s/helm/druid/values.yaml
   Config template: https://github.com/dene14/druid-aws-ecs/blob/k8s/helm/druid/files/druid/configs/_common/common.runtime.properties
   
   Any feedback or ideas (even blaming ones) are very welcome! :)
