rdhabalia opened a new pull request, #21687:
URL: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/pull/21687

   PIP: #21452 
   
   ### Motivation
   
   
   As discussed in Issue: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues/21451
   
   Apache Pulsar provides a messaging queue using a Shared subscription to 
process unordered messages in parallel using multiple connected consumers. 
Shared subscription is also commonly used in data processing pipelines where 
they need to forcefully unsubscribe from the subscription after processing 
messages on the topic. One example is Pulsar-Storm adapter where [Pulsar 
spout](https://github.com/apache/pulsar/blob/branch-2.4/pulsar-storm/src/main/java/org/apache/pulsar/storm/PulsarSpout.java#L126)
 creates Pulsar consumers on a shared subscription for distributed processing 
and then unsubscribe on the topic. 
   
   However, PulsarSpout always fails to unsubscribe shared subscriptions and it 
also doesn't close the pulsar consumers if there is more than one consumer 
connected to the subscription which causes a leaked subscription and consumer 
for that application. It also causes a backlog on a topic due to failed 
unsubscribe and application team has to build external service to just address 
such failures.
   
   In this usecases, client application can not successfully unsubscribe on a 
shared subscription when multiple consumers are connected because Pulsar client 
library first tries to unsubscribe which will not be successful as multiple 
consumers are still connected on the subscription and eventually Pulsar client 
lib fails to unsubscribe and close the consumer on the subscription. Because of 
that none of the consumers can disconnect or unsubscribe from the subscription. 
This will make it impossible for applications to unsubscribe on a shared 
subscription and they need an API to forcefully unsubscribe on a shared 
subscription using consumer API.
   We already have the admin-api to unsubscribe forcefully but adding such 
support in consumer API will allow applications like Pulsar-storm to 
unsubscribe successfully and also allow consumers to close gracefully.
   
   ### Modifications
   
   Support unsubscribe API with force option in consumer API along with admin 
API which can help applications to unsubscribe on shared subscription usecases.

   ### Matching PR in forked repository
   
   PR in forked repository: <!-- ENTER URL HERE -->
   
   <!--
   After opening this PR, the build in apache/pulsar will fail and instructions 
will
   be provided for opening a PR in the PR author's forked repository.
   
   apache/pulsar pull requests should be first tested in your own fork since 
the 
   apache/pulsar CI based on GitHub Actions has constrained resources and quota.
   GitHub Actions provides separate quota for pull requests that are executed 
in 
   a forked repository.
   
   The tests will be run in the forked repository until all PR review comments 
have
   been handled, the tests pass and the PR is approved by a reviewer.
