Joe Stein created KAFKA-1694:
--------------------------------
Summary: kafka command line shell
Key: KAFKA-1694
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1694
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Joe Stein
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 0.8.3
There are a lot of different kafka tools. Right now I think 5-6 of them are
being used commonly.
I was thinking we could start by taking
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/System+Tools and
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Replication+tools and
exposing them in a plugin type way for a command line shell interface.
It would be both: command line and shell.
so
kafka -b brokerlist -a reasign-partition status
would run from the cli and
kafka shell -b brokerlist
kafka>kafka>describe;
... kafka-topics.sh --describe
kafka>set topic_security['pci','profile','dss'] = true
...etc
An important item is that folks that are using existing tools we should have an
easy api type way so they can keep doing that and get benefit too.
