Kafdrop Search

This extension allows searching Kafka records by key and approximate timestamp, without scanning the whole topic/partition, by using the API of Kafdrop (Kafka Web UI) if one is available for your Kafka cluster. Employs a heuristic binary search (i.e. logarithmic number of Kafdrop API calls based on topic/partition size per search) given a Kafka topic, record key and approximate timestamp. Features: * Topic name autocompletion & metadata fetching * Auto-calculated partition number (default murmur32-based Kafka partitioning) * Configurable Kafdrop URL - easily switch between different Kafka clusters * Auto Kafdrop page-scrolling to maximize search success probability in large topics * Auto-saving of entered search parameters
