Don't think it is supported yet. Take a look at this JIRA tracking Delete Topic. For delete manually
- Shutdown the cluster
- Clean kafka log dir (specified by the
log.dir
attribute in kafka config file ) as well the zookeeper data - Restart the cluster
For any given topic what you can do is
- Stop kafka
- Clean kafka log specific to partition, kafka stores its log file in a format of "logDir/topic-partition" so for a topic named "MyTopic" the log for partition id 0 will be stored in
/tmp/kafka-logs/MyTopic-0
where/tmp/kafka-logs
is specified by thelog.dir
attribute - Restart kafka
This is NOT
a good and recommended approach but it should work. In the Kafka broker config file the log.retention.hours.per.topic
attribute is used to define The number of hours to keep a log file before deleting it for some specific topic
bin/kafka-run-class.sh kafka.admin.DeleteTopicCommand --zookeeper localhost:2181 --topic test
命令删除后数据文件依然存在,上边的方法是根本删除
create kafka-delete-topic.sh file
