+# kafka-console-topicconsumer
+
+A simple command line tool to consume all partitions a topic and print the messages
+on the standard output.
+
+### Installation
+
+    go install github.com/Shopify/sarama/tools/kafka-console-topicconsumer
+
+### Usage
+
+    # Minimum invocation
+    kafka-console-topicconsumer -topic=test -brokers=kafka1:9092
+
+    # It will pick up a KAFKA_PEERS environment variable
+    export KAFKA_PEERS=kafka1:9092,kafka2:9092,kafka3:9092
+    kafka-console-topicconsumer -topic=test
+
+    # You can specify the offset you want to start at. It can be either
+    # `oldest`, `newest`. The default is `newest`.
+    kafka-console-topicconsumer -topic=test -offset=oldest
+    kafka-console-topicconsumer -topic=test -offset=newest
+
+    # Display all command line options
+    kafka-console-topicconsumer -help
