Danger: Unmaintained Code Ahead

This repository is no longer maintained by Confluent. It has been superceded by the proprietary confluent-cli which provides significantly more functionality, including ACLs, RBAC, and Audit Log management for Confluent Platform.

Confluent Platform CLI

A CLI to start and manage Confluent Platform from command line.

Installation

• Download and install Confluent Platform

• Checkout confluent-cli by running:

  $ git clone git@github.com:confluentinc/confluent-cli.git
  

• Set CONFLUENT_HOME environment variable to point to the location of Confluent Platform. For instance:

  $ export CONFLUENT_HOME=/usr/local/confluent-3.3.0
  

• Install confluent-cli:

  $ cd confluent-cli; make install
  

Usage

To get a list of available commands, run:

$ export PATH=${CONFLUENT_HOME}/bin:${PATH};
$ confluent help

Examples:

• Start all the services!

$ confluent start

• Retrieve their status:

$ confluent status

• Open the log file of a service:

$ confluent log connect

• Access runtime stats of a service:

$ confluent top kafka

• Discover the availabe Connect plugins:

$ confluent list plugins

• or list the predefined connector names:

$ confluent list connectors

• Load a couple connectors:

$ confluent load file-source
$ confluent load file-sink

• Get a list with the currently loaded connectors:

$ confluent status connectors

• Check the status of a loaded connector:

$ confluent status file-source

• Read the configuration of a connector:

$ confluent config file-source

• Reconfigure a connector:

$ confluent config file-source -d ./updated-file-source-config.json

• or reconfigure using a properties file:

$ confluent config file-source -d ./updated-file-source-config.properties

• Figure out where the data and the logs of the current confluent run are stored:

$ confluent current

• Unload a specific connector:

$ confluent unload file-sink

• Stop the services:

$ confluent stop

• Start on a clean slate next time (deletes data and logs of a confluent run):

$ confluent destroy

Set CONFLUENT_CURRENT if you want to use a top directory for confluent runs other than your platform's tmp directory.

$ cd $CONFLUENT_HOME
$ mkdir -p var
$ export CONFLUENT_CURRENT=${CONFLUENT_HOME}/var
$ confluent current
