    Description

      KafkaLog4jAppender is the Log4j Appender to publish messages to Kafka.
      Since there is no key or explicit partition number, the messages are sent to random partitions.

      In some cases, it is possible to derive a key from the message itself.
      So it may be beneficial to enable KafkaLog4jAppender to accept KeyClass which will provide a key for a given message.
