Does anyone know if you can set consumer.auto.offset.reset on the stream to always start from the earliest irrespective of the current application group offset?
I’m thinking no since the group is already set. Might need to connect using a consumer client to seek to beginning first.
I believe that setting only kicks in when there are no offsets. However I think there's another setting that tells the consumer to not log offsets at all if you don't mind always starting from the beginning
I’ll check for that one. I quickly just set up another consumer to reset it before starting the stream but that would be a little cleaner for this tool that rips through a topic.
