Paolo Patierno commented on KAFKA-5409: --------------------------------------- Hi Bharat, you are right but ... inside the getNewProducerProps() method, the call to producerProps(config) gets the "extraProducerProps" and fill the properties (i.e. the client.id passed by the --producer-property option) in the right way then ... the client.id is overridden by : {code} props.put(ProducerConfig.CLIENT_ID_CONFIG, "console-producer") {code} so the --producer-property option loses its effect. > Providing a custom client-id to the ConsoleProducer tool > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-5409 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5409 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: tools > Reporter: Paolo Patierno > Priority: Minor > > Hi, > I see that the client-id properties for the ConsoleProducer tool is always > "console-producer". It could be useful having it as parameter on the command > line or generating a random one like happens for the ConsolerConsumer. > If it makes sense to you, I can work on that. > Thanks, > Paolo. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
