kafka-images VS whatfiles

CONNECT_SSL_ENDPOINT_IDENTIFICATION_ALGORITHM and CONNECT_SASL_MECHANISM.

And very importantly, don't forget CONNECT_SECURITY_PROTOCOL, as not only will you have odd connection failures (usually manifests as the client dying at the ApiVersions negotiation stage of the Kafka protocol's handshake), but because a script run in the image uses the value of that undocumented setting to execute a prerequisite in different ways [2], and you'll get weird behaviour that obscures the real issue.

2) Support more than one way of configuring things - maybe I want to mount in a config file, maybe I want to provide a ConfigMap, maybe I want to do it via env vars. Well... [3]

I don't really know how many users I have, so I don't know how "meaningful" my projects are, but I have found some of them posted on French, Chinese, Greek, Russian blogs etc., so hopefully they fill some people's needs besides my own.

I learned to program because I was frustrated that after working in IT consulting for several years, I still had no idea how computers worked. I started with "Learn Python the Hard Way" and "Automate the Boring Stuff with Python". Then got a job doing some Windows consulting stuff, and they said they'd hire me as a software engineer if I learned Go, which was a pretty easy step from Python. I'd tried to learn programming as a kid several times and always found it too frustrating. I started working on side projects as a way to learn new languages, improve my resume, and scratch my own itches. The hardest part was coming up with ideas for useful/worthwhile projects. I was super frustrated one day that the easiest way to get a file between two machines that were right beside each other was sending them out to the internet via Google Drive or Dropbox, which made me want to write "cross-platform AirDrop", which became Flying Carpet. If you find yourself wanting a simple piece of software that seems like it should already exist, that's a great project idea.
