Hi micseydel
I do understand and apologies...
but read it from my side, I ask a question and the first thing that the responder did is tell me to do something which I actually did do... telling me clearly he did not bother to read the message himself.
if it's cryptic, then it means the reader does not understand or know the technology then I'm happy that they find it cryptic, but also happy they don't respond, maybe the onus is then on them to go google and search for Kafka and explore the technology a it.
I don't have code to post about how to handle subscribing to a Kafka topic an specifying a key as thats exactly what I'm looking for... and have not been able to find references for.
and well, the attitude of this forum is not the friendliest... and I'm referring to the mod's... and this is suppose to be a language that specialises on education, so ye can see how people don't come here, I hardly do because of exactly that.
I have another forum... where asking a question you get your head bitten off, so hardly go there anymore.

Even if it's justified, it's likely to scare off question answerers. (I usually skip threads that get this bad, am only replying because I don't agree with how the mods handled things up to this point.)
All that said, your question is cryptic because (1) you asked how to do something I expect to be clearly documented and (2) you didn't provide any code, so I have no idea what you're doing. It's really easy for conversations about code to degenerate if the code isn't provided and for some reason no one asks for it.
When you provide your code, it should be as minimal as possible. Remove any unused imports, input() calls, file I/O (if it's related to the question) and hard-code inputs for the simplest possible thing for us to play with. I assure you we do want to help, and we'll make an effort if we get what we need to be helpful.
On top of this, I recommend you at the very least link to resources for getting Kafka going, the easier the better. For this kind of question we're likely to want to test our suggestions, and many of us won't go the extra mile to install extra software, especially if the question asker doesn't provide help with it.
