> Hi,
> the kafka-delete-records script allows user to pass information about records
> to delete through a JSON file. Such file, as described in the command help,
> is made by a "partitions" array and a "version" field. Reading
> [KIP-107|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-107%3A+Add+purgeDataBefore%28%29+API+in+AdminClient]
> and the DeleteRecords API (Key: 21) description it's not clear what such
> field is and even it's not used at all (in the current implementation).
> It turned out that the field is for having backward compatibility in the
> future where the JSON format could change. This JIRA is about adding more
> checks on the "version" field having it not mandatory but assuming the
> earliest version (current 1) if it's omitted from the JSON file.
> The same for the kafka-reassign-partitions which has a topics-to-move JSON
> file as input (used with --generate option) and the partitions-to-move.json
> (used with --execute option). In both cases the same logic can be applied as
> above.
