How to check whether Kafka Server is running?

Question

I want to ensure whether kafka server is running or not before starting production and consumption jobs. It is in windows environment and here\'s my kafka server\'s code in

Answer 1

I found an event OnError in confluent Kafka:

consumer.OnError += Consumer_OnError;

 private void Consumer_OnError(object sender, Error e)
    {
        Debug.Log("connection error: "+ e.Reason);
        ConsumerConnectionError(e);
    }

And its documentation in code:

    //
    // Summary:
    //     Raised on critical errors, e.g. connection failures or all brokers down. Note
    //     that the client will try to automatically recover from errors - these errors
    //     should be seen as informational rather than catastrophic
    //
    // Remarks:
    //     Executes on the same thread as every other Consumer event handler (except OnLog
    //     which may be called from an arbitrary thread).
    public event EventHandler OnError;
