This tool helps to quickly reset an application in order to reprocess its data from scratch.
* This tool resets offsets of input topics to the earliest available offset (by default), or to a specific defined position* This tool deletes the internal topics that were created by Kafka Streams (topics starting with "<application.id>-").
The tool finds these internal topics automatically. If the topics flagged automatically for deletion by the dry-run are unsuitable, you can specify a subset with the "--internal-topics" option.
* This tool will not delete output topics (if you want to delete them, you need to do it yourself with the bin/kafka-topics.sh command).
* This tool will not clean up the local state on the stream application instances (the persisted stores used to cache aggregation results).
You need to call KafkaStreams#cleanUp() in your application or manually delete them from the directory specified by "state.dir" configuration (${java.io.tmpdir}/kafka-streams/<application.id> by default).
* When long session timeout has been configured, active members could take longer to get expired on the broker thus blocking the reset job to complete. Use the "--force" option could remove those left-over members immediately. Make sure to stop all stream applications when this option is specified to avoid unexpected disruptions.
*** Important! You will get wrong output if you don't clean up the local stores after running the reset tool!
*** Warning! This tool makes irreversible changes to your application. It is strongly recommended that you run this once with "--dry-run" to preview your changes before making them.
Option (* = required) Description
--------------------- -----------
* --application-id <String: id> REQUIRED: The Kafka Streams
application ID (application.id).
--bootstrap-server <String: server to The server(s) to connect to. The
connect to> broker list string in the form HOST1:
PORT1,HOST2:PORT2. (default:
localhost:9092)
--by-duration <String> Reset offsets to offset by duration
from current timestamp. Format:
'PnDTnHnMnS'
--command-config <String: file name> Config properties file to be passed to
admin clients and embedded consumer.
--config-file <String: file name> (DEPRECATED) Property file containing
configs to be passed to admin
clients and embedded consumer. This
option will be removed in a future
version. Use --command-config
instead.
--dry-run Display the actions that would be
performed without executing the
reset commands.
--force Force the removal of members of the
consumer group (intended to remove
stopped members if a long session
timeout was used). Make sure to shut
down all stream applications when
this option is specified to avoid
unexpected rebalances.
--from-file <String> Reset offsets to values defined in CSV
file.
--help Print usage information.
--input-topics <String: list> Comma-separated list of user input
topics. For these topics, the tool
by default will reset the offset to
the earliest available offset. Reset
to other offset position by
appending other reset offset option,
ex: --input-topics foo --shift-by 5
--intermediate-topics <String: list> [deprecated] Comma-separated list of
intermediate user topics (topics
that are input and output topics).
For these topics, the tool will skip
to the end.
--internal-topics <String: list> Comma-separated list of internal
topics to delete. Must be a subset
of the internal topics marked for
deletion by the default behaviour
(do a dry-run without this option to
view these topics).
--shift-by <Long: number-of-offsets> Reset offsets shifting current offset
by 'n', where 'n' can be positive or
negative
--to-datetime <String> Reset offsets to offset from datetime.
Format: 'YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sss'
--to-earliest Reset offsets to earliest offset.
--to-latest Reset offsets to latest offset.
--to-offset <Long> Reset offsets to a specific offset.
--version Display Kafka version.
