sijie opened a new issue #787: Client should be able to get ledger metadata from Handles.
URL: https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/issues/787
 
 
   
   
   **FEATURE REQUEST**
   
   1. Please describe the feature you are requesting.
   
   Returns client-side public metadata to clients when they call `Handle#getLedgerMetadata()`. This should be similar as [`FileStatus`](https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.7.3/api/org/apache/hadoop/fs/FileStatus.html) in filesystem. 
   
   This feature only requests exposing public metadata to client. It doesn't aim at exposing all metadata fields.
   
   The public metadata
   
   - replica settings: ensemble/write-quorum/ack-quorum size
   - lastEntryId/length
   - DigestType
   - Ctime
   - isSealed
   - custom metadata
   - ensemble information (ensemble information is useful when bookkeeper ledger is used for data processing for locality consideration)
   
   2. Indicate the importance of this issue to you (blocker, must-have, should-have, nice-to-have). Are you currently using any workarounds to address this issue?
   
   *blocker*
   
   3. Provide any additional detail on your proposed use case for this feature.
   
   N/A
