+Inside the B<Topic> block, the following per-topic options are
+understood:
+

+=item B<Property> I<String> I<String>
+
+Configure the named property for the current topic. Properties are
+forwarded to the kafka producer library B<librdkafka>.
+
+=item B<Key> I<String>
+
+Use the specified string as a partioning key for the topic. Kafka breaks
+topic into partitions and guarantees that for a given topology, the same
+consumer will be used for a specific key. The special (case insensitive)
+string B<Random> can be used to specify that an arbitrary partition should
+be used.
+
+=item B<Format> B<Command>|B<JSON>|B<Graphite>
+
+Selects the format in which messages are sent to the broker. If set to
+B<Command> (the default), values are sent as C<PUTVAL> commands which are
+identical to the syntax used by the I<Exec> and I<UnixSock plugins>.
+
+If set to B<JSON>, the values are encoded in the I<JavaScript Object Notation>,
+an easy and straight forward exchange format.
+
+If set to B<Graphite>, values are encoded in the I<Graphite> format, which is
+"<metric> <value> <timestamp>\n".
+
+=item B<StoreRates> B<true>|B<false>
+
+Determines whether or not C<COUNTER>, C<DERIVE> and C<ABSOLUTE> data sources
+are converted to a I<rate> (i.e. a C<GAUGE> value). If set to B<false> (the
+default), no conversion is performed. Otherwise the conversion is performed
+using the internal value cache.

+Please note that currently this option is only used if the B<Format> option has
+been set to B<JSON>.

+instance) are put into one component, for example C<host.cpu-0.cpu-idle>.
+
+=item B<StoreRates> B<true>|B<false>
+
+If set to B<true> (the default), convert counter values to rates. If set to
+B<false> counter values are stored as is, i.e. as an increasing integer number.
+
+This will be reflected in the C<ds_type> tag: If B<StoreRates> is enabled,
