Murad M commented on KAFKA-7930: -------------------------------- Patch provided: https://github.com/muradm/kafka/pull/1 > StreamsResetter makes "changelog" topic naming assumptions > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-7930 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7930 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: streams, tools > Affects Versions: 2.1.0 > Reporter: Murad M > Priority: Major > Labels: features, usability > > StreamsResetter deletes the topics considered internal. Currently it just > checks the naming as per > [code|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/1aae604861068bb7337d4972c9dcc0c0a99c374d/core/src/main/scala/kafka/tools/StreamsResetter.java#L660]. > If assumption is wrong (either topic prefix or suffix), tool becomes useless > if aware even dangerous if not. Probably better either: > * naming assumption should be optional and supply internal topics with > argument (--internal-topics) > * deletion could be optional (--no-delete-internal) > * ignore topics which are included in list of --input-topics > Faced this, when was trying to reset applications with GlobalKTable topics > named as *-changelog. Such topics sometimes are not desirable for deletion. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
