Guozhang Wang commented on KAFKA-9909: -------------------------------------- Hello [~gopikrishna.chaga...@target.com] If you want to control "when" to commit, you can set the streams commit interval to infinity and use `context.commit` manually when you want to. If you want to control "what" to commit (I'm not sure if that the case for you), I think it is a bit risky to do so because it may have vulnerability to many semantical guarantees in stream processing. Do you have any specific scenarios for it? > Kafka Streams : offset control to Streams API > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-9909 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9909 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: streams > Affects Versions: 2.5.0 > Environment: All > Reporter: Gopikrishna > Priority: Minor > Labels: Offset, commit > > Hello team, really inspired the way streams api is running today. I would > like to have a feature to be flexible regarding the offset. when we write the > processor api, processor context object can be used to commit the offset. > this is not effective. but streams are controlling the offset. the moment the > process method executed or scheduled window completed, the offset is > committed automatically by streams internally. > Like traditional kafka consumer, its better the context object should have > complete control over the offset whether to commit or not. This will give > more control to the api to handle failovers and especially when message > cannot be processed, context should not commit the offset. Appreciate this > can be implemented. > > h4. enable.auto.commit is by default false, but streams are committing > automatically the offset. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
