             Summary: Consistent option names for command-line tools
                 Key: KAFKA-3130
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3130
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: tools
    Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0
            Reporter: Ismael Juma


We should use consistent option names for all of our non-deprecated tools. A 
couple of obvious issues come to mind:

1. Some tools use --broker-list while others use --bootstrap-servers (and some 
don't support either and it needs to be passed via the properties mechanism)
2. Some tools only allow the passing of properties inline in the command 
invocation while others only allow a file to be used

I am sure there are more. Part of this JIRA is to do that analysis. Fixing the 
two issues above would already be a big improvement as they are a common need.
