BalajiSeshadri commented on KAFKA-1476:
---------------------------------------

[~singhashish] or [~nehanarkhede] Can we expose this as an API that returns 
offset data instead of just command line tool.

In DISH we have requirement to display lags in UI,it would be useful to 
everybody if we do it as API thats used by tool as wells as UI.

Let me know your thoughts,i would fix the review comments after your response.

Thanks,

Balaji

> It would be useful to have a way to get a list of consumer groups currently 
> active via some tool/script that ships with kafka. This would be helpful so 
> that the system tools can be explored more easily.
> For example, when running the ConsumerOffsetChecker, it requires a group 
> option
> bin/kafka-run-class.sh kafka.tools.ConsumerOffsetChecker --topic test --group 
> ?
> But, when just getting started with kafka, using the console producer and 
> consumer, it is not clear what value to use for the group option.  If a list 
> of consumer groups could be listed, then it would be clear what value to use.
