--------------------------------------

             Summary: Add KafkaOutputFormat (DataSet API)
                 Key: FLINK-3905
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3905
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Kafka Connector
    Affects Versions: 1.0.3
            Reporter: Maximilian Bode
            Assignee: Maximilian Bode


Right now, Flink can ingest records from and write records to Kafka in the DataStream API, via the {{FlinkKafkaConsumer08}} and {{FlinkKafkaProducer08}} and the corresponding classes for Kafka 0.9. In Flink batch jobs, interaction with Kafka is currently not supported.
----
If there is an easy way to create an inverse to the OutputFormatSinkFunction, something like a SinkFunctionOutputFormat, this might be the way to go?
