hkt - a Kafka tool that likes JSON Build Status

This is a fork of KT that we maintain, adding features oriented toward debugging. More details will come soon.

Some reasons why you might be interested:

  • Consume messages on specific partitions between specific offsets.
  • JSON/Avro/String formatted messages consumption with optional filtering by key
  • JSON/Avro/String formatted messages production
  • Display topic information (e.g., with partition offset and leader info).
  • Modify consumer group offsets (e.g., resetting or manually setting offsets per topic and per partition).
  • JSON output for easy consumption with tools like kp or jq.
  • JSON input to facilitate automation via tools like jsonify.
  • Configure brokers, schema registry, and authentication with the KT_BROKERS, KT_REGISTRY and KT_AUTH environment variables.
  • Fast start up time.
  • No buffering of output.
  • Binary keys and payloads can be passed and presented in base64 or hex encoding.
  • Support for TLS authentication.
  • Basic cluster admin functions: Create & delete topics.

Examples

Read details about topics that match a regex
$ hkt topic -filter news -partitions
{
  "name": "actor-news",
  "partitions": [
    {
      "id": 0,
      "oldest": 0,
      "newest": 0
    }
  ]
}
Produce messages
$ echo 'Alice wins Oscar' | hkt produce -topic actor-news -literal
{
  "count": 1,
  "partition": 0,
  "startOffset": 0
}

$ echo 'Bob wins Oscar' | kt produce -topic actor-news -literal
{
  "count": 1,
  "partition": 0,
  "startOffset": 0
}
$ for i in {6..9} ; do echo Bourne sequel $i in production. | hkt produce -topic actor-news -literal ;done
{
  "count": 1,
  "partition": 0,
  "startOffset": 1
}
{
  "count": 1,
  "partition": 0,
  "startOffset": 2
}
{
  "count": 1,
  "partition": 0,
  "startOffset": 3
}
{
  "count": 1,
  "partition": 0,
  "startOffset": 4
}
Or pass in JSON object to control key, value and partition
$ echo '{"value": "Terminator terminated", "key": "Arni", "partition": 0}' | hkt produce -topic actor-news
{
  "count": 1,
  "partition": 0,
  "startOffset": 5
}
Read messages at specific offsets on specific partitions
$ hkt consume -topic actor-news -offsets 0=1:2
{
  "partition": 0,
  "offset": 1,
  "key": "",
  "value": "Bourne sequel 6 in production.",
  "timestamp": "1970-01-01T00:59:59.999+01:00"
}
{
  "partition": 0,
  "offset": 2,
  "key": "",
  "value": "Bourne sequel 7 in production.",
  "timestamp": "1970-01-01T00:59:59.999+01:00"
}
Follow a topic, starting relative to newest offset
$ hkt consume -topic actor-news -offsets all=newest-1:
{
  "partition": 0,
  "offset": 4,
  "key": "",
  "value": "Bourne sequel 9 in production.",
  "timestamp": "1970-01-01T00:59:59.999+01:00"
}
{
  "partition": 0,
  "offset": 5,
  "key": "Arni",
  "value": "Terminator terminated",
  "timestamp": "1970-01-01T00:59:59.999+01:00"
}

$ hkt admin -createtopic morenews -topicdetail <(jsonify =NumPartitions 1 =ReplicationFactor 1)
$ hkt topic -filter news
{
  "name": "morenews"
}
$ hkt admin -deletetopic morenews
$ hkt topic -filter news
Change broker address via environment variable
$ export KT_BROKERS=brokers.kafka:9092
$ hkt <command> <option>
Produce and consume Avro formatted messages

Provided the following schema for this subject actors-value in Schema Registry http://localhost:8081:

{"type": "record", "name": "Actor", "fields": [{"type": "string", "name": "FirstName"}]}

It produces the Avro formatted message:

$ echo '{"value": {"FirstName": "Ryan"}, "key": "id-42"}' | hkt produce -topic actors -registry http://localhost:8081 -valuecodec avro

It can be also send using a file:

$ echo '{"value": {"FirstName": "Arnold"}, "key": "id-43"}' | hkt produce -topic actors -registry http://localhost:8081 -value-avro-schema Actor.avsc

That they may be consumed:

$ hkt consume -registry http://localhost:8081 -valuecodec avro actors
{
  "partition": 0,
  "offset": 0,
  "key": "id-42",
  "value": {
    "FirstName": "Ryan"
  },
  "time": "2021-11-16T01:01:01Z"
}
{
  "partition": 0,
  "offset": 1,
  "key": "id-43",
  "value": {
    "FirstName": "Arnold"
  },
  "time": "2021-11-17T01:01:01Z"
}

Not only TopicNameStrategy is supported but TopicRecordNameStrategy is supported to find the subject name for a schema using -value-avro-record-name. This can be used in conjunction with -value-avro-schema or get latest version of the schema from the Schema Registry without providing any parameter.

If the globally unique schema identifier is already known, it can be used instead:

$ echo '{"value": {"FirstName": "Cristina"}, "key": "id-44"}' | hkt produce -topic actors -registry http://localhost:8081 -value-avro-schema-id 100

Produces the record using schema whose identifier is 100.

Installation

You can download hkt via the Releases section.

Alternatively, the usual way via the go tool, for example:

Use "hkt [command] -help" for for information about the command.

Authentication:

Authentication with Kafka can be configured via a JSON file.
You can set the file name via an "-auth" flag to each command or
set it via the environment variable KT_AUTH.

Authentication / Encryption

Authentication configuration is possibly via a JSON file. You indicate the mode of authentication you need and provide additional information as required for your mode. You pass the path to your configuration file via the -auth flag to each command individually, or set it via the environment variable KT_AUTH.

TLS

Required fields:

  • mode: This needs to be set to TLS
  • client-certificate: Path to your certificate

  • ca-certificate: Path to your CA certificate

Example for an authorization configuration that is used for the system tests:

{
    "mode": "TLS",
    "client-certificate": "test-secrets/kt-test.crt",
    "client-certificate-key": "test-secrets/kt-test.key",
    "ca-certificate": "test-secrets/snakeoil-ca-1.crt"
