list kafka consumer groups class

[luciangutu]

Hi.
Any plans to implement a Kafka consumer groups list class as /opt/kafka/bin/kafka-consumer-groups.sh does? Thanks.

This would likely fall under #935

You might take a look at this one:

@jeffwidman is the list() function in the zabbix-kafka-consumers-monitor repo the current best way to get a list of consumer groups?

@ChristineTChen all you need to do is pass the ListGroupsRequest_v0 to each broker (because each broker only knows about groups that it manages). This is essentially what the zabbix one does, although they wrapped it with some additional request/retry logic that may or may not be needed depending on the use case.
