--------------------------------------
Summary: Add section on detecting consumer failures in new
consumer javadoc
Key: KAFKA-3418
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3418
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: consumer
Reporter: Jason Gustafson
Assignee: Jason Gustafson
There still seems to be a lot of confusion about the design of the poll() loop
in regard to consumer liveness. We do mention it in the javadoc, but it's a
little hidden and we aren't very clear on what the user should do to (such as
tweaking max.poll.records). We should pull this into a separate section (e.g.
Jay suggests "Detecting Consumer Failures") and give it a more complete
treatment.
