Mastering Apache Pulsar

Appendix B. Pulsar Admin CLI

Throughout the book, I’ve used the Pulsar Admin CLI to perform many tasks. I shared snippets of the commands but didn’t really dive into the bigger picture of the CLI. That was partly due to it not fitting into the flow of the book, but also due to knowing I would reserve this section of the book to talk about it. This appendix will quickly cover the Pulsar Admin CLI and go through all of the resources available on the CLI. It’s here to serve as a reference (see Table B-1).

For an exhaustive list of what is available in the Pulsar Admin CLI, you can consult the official CLI reference.
