Ismael Juma commented on KAFKA-3073:
------------------------------------
If we want to support regex in the protocol, we need a cross-platform solution. The best option
I've seen so far is:
https://github.com/google/re2
https://github.com/google/re2j
> KafkaConnect should support regular expression for topics

> KafkaConsumer supports both a list of topics or a pattern when subscribing.
> KafkaConnect only supports a list of topics, which is not just more of a hassle to configure
- it also requires more maintenance.
> I suggest adding topics.pattern as a new configuration and letting users choose between
'topics' or 'topics.pattern'.
