kafka-python 0.9.5

Pure Python client for Apache Kafka

Kafka Python client

This module provides low-level protocol support for Apache Kafka as well as high-level consumer and producer classes. Request batching is supported by the protocol as well as broker-aware request routing. Gzip and Snappy compression is also supported for message sets.

Coordinated Consumer Group support is under development - see Issue #38.
