I agree that json format is most accepted format among applications to
communicate but this json is programme friendly , We needed something user
friendly where we can pass comments comments as part of connector configuration.
Features of Hjson :-
# We are allowed to use comments
# We are allowed to pass json as part of connector configuration key without
escaping it which is very user friendly. (We have modified version of
kafka-connect-elasticsearch where user can pass index mapping part of connector
properties).
Please find attached connector configuration in Json and Hjson. We are already
running this in production. I have introduced HJSON filter on POST and PUT apis
of kafka connect
