Plan to support Incremenal Cooperative Rebalance Protocol?

[chickensoup]

Kafka supports consumer incremental cooperative rebalance protocal starting from version 2.4.0, and I'm wondering is there any plan for Sarama client to support this protocol?

KIP-429

I just want to bump this issue from closing. Cooperative rebalance support would be very useful to work with different deployment kinds.

Definitely would also help our issues at Honeycomb where we've had to stop and start all workers at once rather than rolling restart to update

Now Apache Kafka 3.0 has used CooperativeStickyAssignor as default assignor instead of RangeAssignor. It seems Sarama has fallen far behind it. It is much more efficient in CooperativeStickyAssignor.

Still waiting for it!

I believe this issue is referring to https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-341%3A+Update+Sticky+Assignor%27s+User+Data+Protocol ?
That feature was added #1416, so I believe this can be closed?

Incremental rebalance is described by KIP-429.

Thanks to @napallday we have a work-in-progress implementation of the incremental cooperate rebalance protocol. If you'd like to test out the changes they are available under PR #2608
