I use an apache kafka cluster and I consume message on this topic using node-rdkafka (wrapper of the native librdkafka library).
I want to retrieve the retention time period of this topic for some performance issues for another part of my code unrelated to kafka.
It is pretty simple in console : How to see the retention for a particular topic in kafka but I did not find any way to get it using the node-rdkafka and it's not possible for me to change this library.
On node-rdkafka, even the Kafka.AdminClient only allow to createTopic/deleteTopic/createPartitions (checked on the doc here : https://blizzard.github.io/node-rdkafka/current/AdminClient.html)
Is there a way to achieve one way or another ?
