["Chesnay Schepler (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3524?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Chesnay Schepler updated FLINK-3524:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
(I don't want to include this into 1.0.0)

Currently, there is no standardized way of parsing JSON data from a Kafka stream. I see a lot of users using JSON in their topics. It would make things easier for our users to provide a serializer for them.

I suggest to use the jackson library because we have that aready as a dependency in Flink and it allows to parse from a byte[].

I would suggest to provide the following classes:
 - JSONDeserializationSchema()
 - JSONDeKeyValueSerializationSchema(bool includeMetadata)

The second variant should produce a record like this:
{code}
{"key": "keydata",
"value": "valuedata",
"metadata": {"offset": 123, "topic": "<topic>", "partition": 2 }
{code}
