use certificates from windows certificate store

[andreig1]

Currently we use certificates from files, example:
ssl.ca.location=C:\temp\kafka-certs\letsencrypt-pub.crt
ssl.keystore.location=C:\temp\kafka-certs\bhj.p12
ssl.keystore.password=XXXXX

How to configure kafka to use certificates from windows store?

[edenhill]

The Windows Cert store is currently only used for retrieving the CA chain (e.g., ssl.ca.location counterpart), not for client certificates.

Should I read your answer as NO? Are you planning to add that functionality?

[edenhill]

Correct, not currently supported, but we might add it in the future if there's enough interest.

In the meantime you can read the certs from the cert store yourself and then pass them in memory to librdkafka through the rd_kafka_conf_set_ssl_cert() function.
