Manikumar commented on KAFKA-7081: ---------------------------------- [~ijuma] [~cmccabe] Would like to get your opinion before starting a small KIP? > Add describe all topics API to AdminClient > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: KAFKA-7081 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7081 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: admin > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Manikumar > Assignee: Manikumar > Priority: Minor > Labels: needs-kip > > Currently AdminClient supports describeTopics(Collection<String> topicNames) > method for topic descriptions and listTopics() for topic name listing. > To describe all topics, users currently use listTopics() to get all topic > names and pass the name list to describeTopics. > Since "describe all topics" is a common operation, We propose to add > describeTopics() method to get all topic descriptions. This will be simple to > use and avoids additional metadata requests. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
