The TEMPLATE connector is a Source, which reads from an external data provider and produces data to Fluvio.

• Why is such a connector relevant?
• Why do you need it?

• What configuration options are required for this connector?
• What is an example configuration file with the most minimal working configuration?
• Are there any common options that are not required but good to know about?
• After highlighting the required and common options, give a complete list of options
• Be sure to point out the default values for any options with defaults.

Example:

In the prometheus connector, the user MUST provide a list of prometheus endpoints, they MUST provide the name of a Fluvio Topic to produce to, and they MAY provide a time interval for scraping.

Show an example configuration, such as:

# config.yml
version: 0.1.0
name: my-prometheus
type: prometheus
topic: prometheus-topic
direction: source
parameters:
endpoints:
- http://localhost:9090/metrics
interval_millis: 3600

• When this connector produces to a topic, what do the events look like?
• Give one or a few examples of pieces of data as they would appear in the topic.
• If there is any relevant documentation for the data format, link to it.
• If the data has a clear choice of Record Key, explain how the key is selected.
• Give an example of a record and show what the corresponding key looks like.

• If this connector has an obvious or common use-case, describe how a user can utilize this connector to achieve it.
• For example, the Airbyte Postgres connector explains what CDC is, why it is useful, and how the user can get started- with that use-case.
• Walk through the entire scenario from start to finish. Include all setup using the most commonly-available tools possible.
• E.g. describe how to set up a Postgres database using Docker. Be sure to include exact versions and supply any custom configurations so the setup is reproducible.

• A table listing all versions of this connector in reverse chronological order (latest on top)
• Version + highlights (link to ..?)
