[jira] [Updated] (KAFKA-4512) Provide snap package

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4512?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Michael Hall updated KAFKA-4512:
--------------------------------
    Attachment: snap_run
                snapcraft.yaml

Attached is a snap build config file that will produce a working Kafka snap, with zookeeper and kafka-server being started by systemd, and the kafka-topics.sh command exposed for the command line.

It needs to have the other commands exposed, and could probably be configured better with respect to logging output.

> The new Snap packaging format makes it easy to install and update services like Kafka. It provides a one-command install process, reliable dependencies, and security for the user. A snap package will also allow Kafka to be run on the recently released Ubuntu Core images for IoT gateways and lightweight cloud instances.
