> ConsoleConsumer behavior inconsistent when specifying --partition with

> Key: KAFKA-6764
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6764
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: consumer
> Reporter: Larry McQueary

> Priority: Minor
> Labels: newbie
>
> Per its usage statement, {{kafka-console-consumer.sh}} ignoresÂ
> {{\-\-from-beginning}} when the specified consumer group has committed
> offsets, and sets {{auto.offset.reset}} to {{latest}}. However, if
> {{\-\-partition}} is also specified, {{\-\-from-beginning}} is observed in
> all cases, whether there are committed offsets or not.
> This happens because when {{\-\-from-beginning}} is specified, {{offsetArg}}
> is set to {{OffsetRequest.EarliestTime}}. However, {{offsetArg}} is [only
> passed to the
> constructor|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/fedac0cea74feeeece529ee1c0cefd6af53ecbdd/core/src/main/scala/kafka/tools/ConsoleConsumer.scala#L76-L79]
> for {{NewShinyConsumer}} when {{\-\-partition}} is also specified.
> This case should either be handled consistently, or the usage statement
> should be modified to indicate the actual behavior/usage.
