hey guys

why does kafka.common.ConnectionError: Kafka @ vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:9092 went away happen all the time ?

network issue ?

mumrah: thanks for the reply re: my pull req for topics with missing partitions

hmm, did i?

what was the PR #?

ah, you should thank dpdk

if you're referring to https://github.com/mumrah/kafka-python/pull/351

yes, you're correct

please pass the thanks onward.

btw i implemented a pure librdkafka client for nodejs if you want a look

it works find in 0.10 but 0.12 seems to eat up thread resources away from the main nodejs loop

basedthe api on your api

significant speed increases it seems, so might be a good pivot for the project or addon

so when doing for m in consumer: < m is not a msg

?

is there a way from a sender side to get an ack that a msg was received ?

redsand: u tharr ? :P

uh, wrong chan :p

redsand: yea, i've chatted with the librdkafka guy on a few occasions

at one point we talked about merging the projects

and replacing the networking/protocol bits with the C lib
