Edit - Zookeeper is not required in newer version of Kafka. Please see answer by @Neeleshkumar Srinivasan Mannur for API version 0.11.0+
Original answer
I fixed it.. After a long research..
ZkClient zkClient = new ZkClient("localhost:2181", 10000, 10000);
AdminUtils.createTopic(zkClient, myTopic, 10, 1, new Properties());
From the above code, ZkClient will create a topic but this topic information will not have awareness for the kafka. So what we have to do is, we need to create object for ZkClient in following way,
First import the below statement,
import kafka.utils.ZKStringSerializer$;
and create object for ZkClient in the following way,
ZkClient zkClient = new ZkClient("localhost:2181", 10000, 10000, ZKStringSerializer$.MODULE$);
AdminUtils.createTopic(zkClient, myTopic, 10, 1, new Properties());
Edit 1: (for @ajkret comment)
The above code won't work for kafka > 0.9 since the api has been changed,
Use the below code for kafka > 0.9
import java.util.Properties;
import kafka.admin.AdminUtils;
import kafka.utils.ZKStringSerializer$;
import kafka.utils.ZkUtils;
import org.I0Itec.zkclient.ZkClient;
import org.I0Itec.zkclient.ZkConnection;
public class KafkaTopicCreationInJava
{
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
ZkClient zkClient = null;
ZkUtils zkUtils = null;
try {
String zookeeperHosts = "192.168.20.1:2181"; // If multiple zookeeper then -> String zookeeperHosts = "192.168.20.1:2181,192.168.20.2:2181";
int sessionTimeOutInMs = 15 * 1000; // 15 secs
int connectionTimeOutInMs = 10 * 1000; // 10 secs
zkClient = new ZkClient(zookeeperHosts, sessionTimeOutInMs, connectionTimeOutInMs, ZKStringSerializer$.MODULE$);
zkUtils = new ZkUtils(zkClient, new ZkConnection(zookeeperHosts), false);
String topicName = "testTopic";
int noOfPartitions = 2;
int noOfReplication = 3;
Properties topicConfiguration = new Properties();
AdminUtils.createTopic(zkUtils, topicName, noOfPartitions, noOfReplication, topicConfiguration);
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (zkClient != null) {
zkClient.close();
}
}
}
}
