Plugin Best Practice
Fail fast on configuration errors. If it's possible to detect user errors in configuration, schema incompatibility they should be handled during onConfigure() method.
Every plugin if possible should add the ability to specify how to handle error in record processing.
They should provide three options as follows:
Skip error (id: skip-error),
Send to error port (id: send-to-error-port),
Fail pipeline (id: fail-pipeline)
The radio button layout should be of 'block' type
This should be in a separate group called "Error Handling" of configuration
Example
JSON configuration
{"label" : "Error Handling","properties" : [{"name": "on-error","label": "On Record Error","widget-type": "radio-group","widget-attributes": {"layout": "block","default": "skip-error","options": [{"id": "skip-error","label": "Skip error"},{"id": "send-to-error-port","label": "Send to error port"},{"id": "fail-pipeline","label": "Fail pipeline"}]}}]}
Support all types supported by destination. Do not compromise here.
