Kafka consumers


The Lenses-CLI allows you to handle consumer group offsets. The command used for this purpose is offsets, with subcommands update-multiple-partitions or update-single-partition. Certain mandatory flags such as --group and --topic are required, indicating the consumer group ID and topic name respectively. To affect all topics use the --all-topics flag. The table below shows some additional flags used for modifying consumers offsets.

FlagDescription
-g, --groupSet the Consumer Group ID
-t, --topicSet the topic name
--all-topicsSelect implicitly all the topics
--topicsThe topic to reset offsets for
--partitionSet the partition ID
--to-earliestReset partition offset to earliest offset
--to-latestReset partition offset to latest offset
--to-offsetReset the partition offset to the provided value
