[Table of contents](#table-of-contents)\n - [Overview](#overview)\n - [Build](#build)\n - [Development](#development)\n\n## Overview\n\n`kafkactl` is a CLI tool to interact with Kafka through the Confluent Kafka Rest Proxy.\n\nThe api package follows the [OpenAPI spec](https://github.com/confluentinc/kafka-rest/blob/v6.2.1/api/v3/openapi.yaml) of Kafka Rest Proxy.\n\n## Docs\n\nDocumentation for the CLI (auto-generated by Cobra) is available [here](./docs/kafkactl.md).\n\n### Generate docs\n\nTo generate CLI markup docs (provided by Cobra), run the following command at the root of the repo\n\n```bash\nmake gendoc\n```\n\n## Roadmap\n\n- [x] Add create command\n - [x] Add create acl\n- [x] Add update command\n - [x] Add update broker-config\n - [x] Add update cluster-config\n - [x] Add update topic-config\n- [x] Add delete command\n - [x] Add delete acl\n - [x] Add delete topic\n- [ ] Add describe command\n - [ ] Add describe topic (75%)\n - [ ] Add describe cluster\n - [ ] Add describe consumer-group\n- [ ] Add \"Consume records\" command\n- [ ] Add \"Produce records\" command\n- [ ] Add get broker tasks command\n\n## Build\n\n\u003e Output binary will be copied to repo/bin directory\n\nBuild and copy `kafkactl` into the `bin` directory\n\n```bash\nmake genbin\n```\n\nOr build for another platform\n\n```bash\n# macOS with Apple Silicon\nmake genbin GOOS=darwin GOARCH=arm64\n```\n\n## Development\n\n\u003e This requires the docker engine to be running and docker-compose installed\n\nStart a local Kafka cluster + Kafka Rest Proxy\n\n```bash\nmake dev-cluster-start\n```\n\nTail the logs of the local Kafka Rest Proxy\n\n```bash\nmake dev-cluster-logs\n```\n\nStop a local Kafka cluster + Kafka Rest Proxy\n\n```bash\nmake dev-cluster-stop\n```\n\nDestroy the local Kafka cluster + Kafka Rest Proxy\n\n```bash\nmake dev-cluster-down\n```\n\n## Examples\n\nList brokers\n\n```bash\n$ kafkactl get brokers\nBROKER-ID HOST PARTITION-REPLICAS-COUNT\n1 kafka0:9091 50\n2 kafka1:9092 50\n```\n\nList topics\n\n```bash\n$ kafkactl get topics\nTOPIC-NAME REPLICATION-FACTOR PARTITIONS-COUNT CONFIGS IS-INTERNAL\nzeplin 2 1 retention.bytes=1000000,retention.ms=1000 false\nzeplin2 2 10 -
