Getting kafka offsets at beginning of spark streaming application

[Abhishek Anand]

Hi,

Is there a way so that I can fetch the offsets from where the spark
streaming starts reading from Kafka when my application starts ?

What I am trying is to create an initial RDD with offsest at a particular
time passed as input from the command line and the offsets from where my
spark streaming starts.

Eg -

Partition 0 -> 1000 to (offset at which my spark streaming starts)

Thanks !!
