Checking the existence of topic in kafka before cr

问题:

I am trying to create a topic in kafka 0.8.2 by using :

AdminUtils.createTopic(zkClient, myTopic, 2, 1, properties);

If I run the code more than once locally for testing, this fails as the topic was already created. Is there a way to check if the topic exists before creating the topic? The TopicCommand api doesn't seem to return anything for listTopics or describeTopic .

回答1:

For this purpose, you can use the method AdminUtils.topicExists(ZkUtils zkClient, String topic), it will return true if the topic already exists, false otherwise.

Your code would then be something like this:

if (!AdminUtils.topicExists(zkClient, myTopic)){
    AdminUtils.createTopic(zkClient, myTopic, 2, 1, properties);
}

You can use AdminClient from kakfa-client version 0.11.0.0

Sample code:

    Properties config = new Properties();
    config.put(AdminClientConfig.BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS_CONFIG, "localhist:9091");

    AdminClient admin = AdminClient.create(config);
    ListTopicsResult listTopics = admin.listTopics();
    Set<String> names = listTopics.names().get();
    boolean contains = names.contains("TEST_6");
    if (!contains) {
        List<NewTopic> topicList = new ArrayList<NewTopic>();
        Map<String, String> configs = new HashMap<String, String>();
        int partitions = 5;
        Short replication = 1;
        NewTopic newTopic = new NewTopic("TEST_6", partitions, replication).configs(configs);
        topicList.add(newTopic);
        admin.createTopics(topicList);
    }
