Feature: Debug mode -- Show Kafka topic

chuck-alt-delete opened this issue · 1 comments

I am getting an error that tells me to try creating the kafka topic manually, but it's not immediately clear to me how the topic should be named to match what datagen expects. Could debug mode show what the kafka topic name is supposed to be?

I should add that this is especially relevant for sql schema files. The json schema files have the topic shown as metadata, so it's easier to see. For example:

CREATE TABLE "ecommerce"."products" (
  "id" int PRIMARY KEY,
  "name" varchar,
  "merchant_id" int NOT NULL,
  "price" int,
  "status" int,
  "created_at" datetime DEFAULT (now())
);

I manually created the topic ecommerce.products but the datagen still failed.
