First you need to download Kafka tar file and extract it. Then go to bin directory and execute following command. Note: producer and consumer command must run in different tab so that in one tab you can produce json and in other you can consume on console.

To create topic:

kafka_2.12-0.11.0.0/bin/kafka-topics.sh --create --zookeeper localhost:2181 --replication-factor 1 --partitions 3 --topic test_topic

To run Producer on console

kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic test_topic

To run consumer on console

kafka-console-consumer.sh --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --topic test_topic --from-beginning
