Hello,

I am reading the "Kafka data structures in Zookeeper"
(https://cwiki.apache.org/KAFKA/kafka-data-structures-in-zookeeper.html)
document and trying to figure out how to view topic registration
information from zookeeper.  Are these information stored in the
zookeeper snapshot file in the hard drive? How can I view the topic
registration info and partition state information from my running
kafka server in 0.8?

I am only running one kafka broker and one zookeeper in the same server.

thanks!

Jason

 

You can use the eclipse zookeeper plugin, if you only want to
sporadically view state..

Hi Jason

You can download zookeeper, and use a client as zookeeper/bin/zkCli.sh
-server zkHost:zkPort. Then you can use the ls and get functions to list
the structure hierarchy or to see the contents at each of the nodes in the
hierarchy respectively. The data structures described in the wiki can be
viewed using get.

Thanks,
Swapnil

You can also install netflix exhibitor. It gives you a GUI to view
zookeeper data.

I have found Kazoo to be very convenient for scripting purposes. It is a
python zookeeper client that is very easy to use -
