Paolo Patierno commented on KAFKA-5409:
---------------------------------------
I think that we can leave without the --client-id option but using the same
approach as the ConsoleConsumer for the group.id so having the user to specify
it with --property options but then avoiding to overwrite it. If the client.id
is not specified then a random one is generated.
I'll provide a PR soon.
> Providing a custom client-id to the ConsoleProducer tool

> Hi,
> I see that the client-id properties for the ConsoleProducer tool is always
> "console-producer". It could be useful having it as parameter on the command
> line or generating a random one like happens for the ConsolerConsumer.
> If it makes sense to you, I can work on that.
> Thanks,
> Paolo.
