             Summary: GetOffsetShell: retrieve offsets for all given topics and 
partitions with single request to the broker
                 Key: KAFKA-5235
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5235
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: tools
            Reporter: Arseniy Tashoyan
             Fix For: 0.11.0.0


GetOffsetShell is implemented on old SimpleConsumer. It needs Zookeeper to 
retrieve metadata about topics and partitions. At present, GetOffsetShell does 
the following:
- get metadata from Zookeeper
- iterate over partitions
- for each partition, connect to its leader broker and request offsets
Instead, GetOffsetShell can use new KafkaConsumer and retrieve offsets by means 
of endOffsets(), beginningOffsets() and offsetsForTimes() methods. One request 
is sufficient for all topics and partitions.
As far as GetOffsetShell is re-implemented with new KafkaConsumer API, it will 
not depend on obsolete API: SimpleConsumer, old producer API.
