--------------------------------------
Summary: Add option to reset consumer offset by relative time
Key: KAFKA-8825
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8825
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Jason Gustafson
When the consumer first initializes its position or when it encounters an
offset out of range error, we have two automatic reset policies: earliest and
latest. With longer retention times, the earliest reset option is often too
expensive and the latest reset requires more time to build recent context.
Users can also set an auto reset policy of "none" and handle it themselves, but
it may be useful to have a configurable option between earliest and latest. So
a user can reset to one day ago or one hour ago for example. Would this be
useful?
