             Summary: Offer a --version flag to print the kafka version
                 Key: KAFKA-2061
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2061
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Andrew Pennebaker
            Priority: Minor


As a newbie, I want kafka command line tools to offer a --version flag to print 
the kafka version, so that it's easier to work with the community to 
troubleshoot things.

As a mitigation, users can query the package management system. But that's A) 
Not necessarily a newbie's first instinct and B) Not always possible when kafka 
is installed manually from tarballs.
