Apache Kafka 入门

Apache Kafka 入门大概分为5篇博客，内容都比较基础，计划包含以下内容：

• Kafka的基本配置和运行
• Kafka命令详细介绍
• Kafka-manager的基本配置和运行
• Kafka API 简单用法
• Spring Boot 集成Kafka

Kafka支持Linux和WIndows环境，本文运行环境使用Linux（CentOS）。

本篇为第二篇。

Kafka命令行详细介绍

常用的几个命令如下：

• kafka-server-start.sh
• kafka-console-consumer.sh
• kafka-console-producer.sh
• kafka-topics.sh

在这几个命令中，第一个仅用于启动Kafka，后两个console常用于测试，用途最多的是最后一个命令，所以下面命令中主要介绍的就是 kafka-topics.sh。

kafka-server-start.sh

用法：> bin/kafka-server-start.sh [-daemon] server.properties [--override property=value]*

这个命令后面可以有多个参数，第一个是可选参数，该参数可以让当前命令以后台服务方式执行，第二个必须是 Kafka 的配置文件。后面还可以有多个--override开头的参数，其中的property可以是Broker Configs中提供的所有参数。这些额外的参数会覆盖配置文件中的设置。

例如下面使用同一个配置文件，通过参数覆盖启动多个Broker。

> bin/kafka-server-start.sh -daemon config/server.properties --override broker.id=0 --override log.dirs=/tmp/kafka-logs-1 --override listeners=PLAINTEXT://:9092 --override advertised.listeners=PLAINTEXT://192.168.16.150:9092> bin/kafka-server-start.sh -daemon config/server.properties --override broker.id=1 --override log.dirs=/tmp/kafka-logs-2 --override listeners=PLAINTEXT://:9093 --override advertised.listeners=PLAINTEXT://192.168.16.150:9093

上面这种用法只是用于演示，真正要启动多个Broker 应该针对不同的 Broker 创建相应的 server.properties 配置。

kafka-console-consumer.sh

这个命令只是简单的将消息输出到标准输出中，该命令支持的参数如下。

Multiple URLS can be                                                 given to allow fail-over. 

--bootstrap-server 必须指定，通常--topic也要指定查看的主题。如果想要从头查看消息，还可以指定--from-beginning参数。一般使用的命令如下。

> bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --topic test --from-beginning

还可以通过下面的命令指定分区查看：

>> bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --topic test --from-beginning --partition 0

kafka-console-producer.sh

这个命令可以将文件或标准输入的内容发送到Kafka集群。该命令参数如下。

其中 --broker-list 和 --topic 是两个必须提供的参数。

常用命令如下。

使用标准输入方式。

> bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic test

从文件读取：

> bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic test < file-input.txt

kafka-topics.sh

相比上面几个偶尔使用的命令来说，kafka-topics.sh 相对就比较重要。该命令包含以下参数。

下面是几种常用的 topic 命令。

描述主题的配置

bin/kafka-configs.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181 --describe --entity-type topics --entity-name test_topic

设置保留时间

# Deprecated waybin/kafka-topics.sh  --zookeeper localhost:2181 --alter --topic test_topic --config retention.ms=1000# Modern waybin/kafka-configs.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181 --alter --entity-type topics --entity-name test_topic --add-config retention.ms=1000

如果您需要删除主题中的所有消息，则可以利用保留时间。首先将保留时间设置为非常低（1000 ms），等待几秒钟，然后将保留时间恢复为上一个值。

注意：默认保留时间为24小时（86400000毫秒）。

删除主题

bin/kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181 --delete --topic test_topic

注意：需要在Broker的配置文件server.properties中配置 delete.topic.enable=true 才能删除主题。

主题信息

bin/kafka-topics.sh --describe --zookeeper localhost:2181 --topic test_topic

添加分区

bin/kafka-topics.sh --alter --zookeeper localhost:2181 --topic test_topic --partitions 3

创建主题

bin/kafka-topics.sh --create --zookeeper localhost:2181 --replication-factor 1 --partitions 3 --topic test_topic

列出主题

bin/kafka-topics.sh --list --zookeeper localhost:2181

命令那么多，怎么记？

Kafka 的命令行工具提供了非常丰富的提示信息，所以只需要记住上面大概的几个用法，知道怎么写就行。当需要用到某个命令时，通过命令提示进行操作。

比如说，如何使用 kafka-configs.sh 查看主题（Topic）的配置？

首先，在命令行中输入bin/kafka-configs.sh，然后或输出下面的命令提示信息。

Add/Remove entity config for a topic, client, user or brokerOption                      Description                                        ------                      -----------                                        --add-config <String>       Key Value pairs of configs to add. Square brackets                               can be used to group values which contain commas:                              'k1=v1,k2=[v1,v2,v2],k3=v3'.

从第一行可以看到这个命令可以修改 topic, client, user 或 broker 的配置。

如果要设置 topic，就需要设置 entity-type 为topics，输入如下命令：

> bin/kafka-configs.sh --entity-type topicsCommand must include exactly one action: --describe, --alter

命令提示需要指定一个操作（不只是上面提示的两个操作），增加--describe试试：

> bin/kafka-configs.sh --entity-type topics --describe[root@localhost kafka_2.11-0.10.2.1]# bin/kafka-configs.sh --entity-type topics --describeMissing required argument "[zookeeper]"

继续增加 --zookeeper：

> bin/kafka-configs.sh --entity-type topics --describe --zookeeper localhost:2181Configs for topic '__consumer_offsets' are segment.bytes=104857600,cleanup.policy=compact,compression.type=producer

由于没有指定主题名，这里显示了__consumer_offsets的信息。下面指定一个topic试试。

> bin/kafka-configs.sh --entity-type topics --describe --zookeeper localhost:2181 --entity-name testConfigs for topic 'test' are

此时显示了test主题的信息，这里是空。

因为Kafka完善的命令提示，可以很轻松的通过提示信息来进行下一步操作，运用熟练后，基本上很快就能实现自己想要的命令。
