I want to learn the kakfa code base, and fairly new to using intellij.

How do I go about importing the project so I can compile?

Is it possible to trace the execution path in debug mode so I can see the
read/write paths etc?

Thanks!

./sbt idea

This command generates all the Intellij project files so that you can
open the kafka project in Intellij easily.

I'm sure it is possible. You might want to google around to see
exactly how it can be done. I personally never use that approach to
debugging.

easy enough thanks!

how do you debug then? log to console/file?

For debugging, you can either start Kafka in intellij or attach intellij to
a remote jvm running kafka. To understand kafka, the best place to add
break point is KafkaRequestHandler.
