Re: kafka-python message offset?

I'm still not getting the necessary behavior. If I run on the command line, I get a series of messages: $ ./kafka-console-consumer.sh --zookeeper w.x.y.z:p --topic test --from-beginning Test test tests asdf If I exclude the --from-beginning argument then it hangs, which

Are you using mumrah/kafka-python? I think so from context but I know there's at least one other implementation rattling around these days. (-: If that's what you're using, I can see two potential problems you might be having. You can set the offset to some approximation of wherever you

Sure. It would be great if you could as well explain the reason why the absence of the jar creates this problem Also, I'm surprised that zookeeper that comes bundled with kafka 0.8.2 does not have the jline jar Regards, prabcs On Wed, Jul 29, 2015 at 10:45 PM, Chris Barlock barl...@us.ibm.com

Oh, I'm sorry. If I use the KafkaConsumer class instead of the SimpleConsumer class (as you suggested) it works. Frustratingly, SimpleConsumer will take the auto_offset_reset parameter without complaining that no such parameter exists, yet it doesn't work properly! But KafkaConsumer works,

Re: kafka-python message offset?

2015-07-29 Thread Dana Powers
Have you tried not setting a group_id in SimpleConsumer? If you have stored offsets in ZK for that group, and those offsets still exist on the server, the consumer will use them and not 'reset'. My hunch is that is your problem. You might also consider enabling kafka debug logs (though not for the

Thanks. I got it to work if I use KafkaConsumer. I doesn't yet work with SimpleConsumer, and that includes seeking to 0,0. I'm curious what that isn't getting it going. It's frustrating because SimpleConsumer supports seek while KafkaConsumer doesn't offer a seek function, but at the same

Re: KAfka Mirror Maker

2015-07-29 Thread Jiangjie Qin
Mirror Maker does not have specific restrictions on cluster size. The error you saw was because consumer was not able to talk to the broker. Can you try to use kafka-console-consumer to consume some data from your source cluster and see if it works? It should be under KAFKA_HOME/bin/ Jiangjie

I got it. It has been tricky getting both consumer classes to work since they are not very similar. I configured one incorrectly because they take the arguments in different orders (in one topic comes before group and in the other that order is reversed). Now that it works, I can also see

Hi Ewen, Thanks for reply. The assumptions that you made for replication and partitions are correct, 120 is total number of partitions and replication factor is 1 for all the topics. Does that mean that a broker will keep all the messages that are produced in memory, or will only the unconsumed
