-----------------------------------
Summary: kafka-python requires metadata request version 1
Key: KAFKA-18648
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-18648
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Ismael Juma
Assignee: Ismael Juma
KIP-896 captured protocol api support from a few clients including
kafka-python. However, when we actually test a client, unexpected dependencies
can sometimes be uncovered.
It turns out that kafka-python has a path where the metadata version used is
hardcoded to be v0 or v1:
[https://github.com/dpkp/kafka-python/blob/a6d0579d3cadd3826dd364b01bc12a2173139abc/kafka/client_async.py#L835]
We need to decide whether we keep the existing behavior in 4.0/trunk and update
the KIP to reflect that kafka-python won't work without a (small) change or add
back support for Metadata request v1-v3.
I also filed an issue with kafka-python-ng (which is a fork of the original
that is not abandoned).
