Using Kafka Manager with HDP 2.5 Sandbox Kafka

[#1]

Using Yahoo Kafka Manager

Git clone the project (you need Java 8 to build). Then use SBT to do a clean distribution.

This will take a while as it downloads a lot of jars.

<code>kafka-manager.zkhosts="sandbox.hortonworks.com:2181"

The build will produce a Zip file, unzip it, update configuration file (conf/application.conf) and then you can run it.

../kafka-manager/target/universal/kafka-manager-1.3.0.8.zip

unzip ../kafka-manager/target/universal/kafka-manager-1.3.0.8.zip

kafka-manager-1.3.0.8 git:(master) ✗ vi conf/application.conf
kafka-manager-1.3.0.8 git:(master) ✗ bin/kafka-manager -Dconfig.file=conf/application.conf
