Hi Chinchu,
I thought the default behavior of Kafka was to create topics if you send to 
them and they don't exist. I could be wrong. We had to support that in one of 
our products, so I am pretty sure that's the default. You do need to be mindful 
of the default partition count though, which I think is one. 

Kind Regards,
-Dan

Subject: Create a Topic if Not Exists

Hi All,
I am looking for  a way to script(bash)  kafka topic creation . We have around 
30 to 40 topics that  need to be created on different envs . The intention is 
to make this process automated ,so looking for something like 'create topic if 
not exists' or similar  by looking at a return code . Does something like this 
exist today ?.

Thanks,
Chinchu
