Redpanda Console – A UI for Data Streaming
Redpanda Console (previously known as Kowl) is a web application that helps you manage and debug your Kafka/Redpanda workloads effortlessly.
Features
- Message viewer: Explore your topics' messages in our message viewer through ad-hoc queries and dynamic filters. Find any message you want using JavaScript functions to filter messages. Supported encodings are: JSON, Avro, Protobuf, CBOR, XML, MessagePack, Text and Binary (hex view). The used encoding (except Protobuf and CBOR) is recognized automatically.
- Consumer groups: List all your active consumer groups along with their active group offsets, edit group offsets (by group, topic or partition) or delete a consumer group.
- Topic overview: Browse through the list of your Kafka topics, check their configuration, space usage, list all consumers who consume a single topic or watch partition details (such as low and high water marks, message count, ...), embed topic documentation from a git repository and more.
- Cluster overview: List available brokers, their space usage, rack id, health, configuration and other information to get a high level overview of your brokers in your cluster.
- Security: Create, list or edit Kafka ACLs and SASL-SCRAM users.
- Schema Registry: List and manage all aspects of your Avro, Protobuf or JSON schemas within your schema registry.
- Kafka connect: Manage connectors from multiple connect clusters, patch configs, view their current state or restart tasks.
- Redpanda Transforms: Manage and monitor data transforms deployed in your Redpanda cluster.
Code Quality
The frontend uses react-doctor to statically analyze React components for performance anti-patterns. Run bun run doctor in the frontend/ directory for a local scan. React Doctor also runs automatically in CI on every push and pull request.
Getting Started
Prerequisites
- Redpanda or any Kafka deployment (v1.0.0+) compatible
- A web browser to access the Console, which can be deployed using Docker builds or as a single binary across all platforms (amd64 / arm64)
Installing
We offer pre built docker images for RP Console, binary builds and a Helm chart to make the installation as comfortable as possible for you. Please take a look at our dedicated Installation documentation.
Quick Start
Do you just want to test RP Console against one of your Kafka clusters without spending too much time on the test setup? Here are some docker commands that allow you to run it locally against an existing Redpanda or Kafka cluster:
Redpanda/Kafka is running locally
Since Console runs in its own container (which has its own network scope), we have to use host.docker.internal as a bootstrap server. That DNS resolves to the host system's ip address. However since the brokers send a list of all brokers' DNS when a client has connected, you have to make sure your advertised listener is connected accordingly, e.g.: PLAINTEXT://host.docker.internal:9092
docker run -p 8080:8080 -e KAFKA_BROKERS=host.docker.internal:9092 docker.redpanda.com/redpandadata/console:latest
Docker supports the --network=host option only on Linux. So Linux users use localhost:9092 as an advertised listener and use the host network namespace instead. Console will then be run as it would be executed on the host machine.
docker run --network=host -p 8080:8080 -e KAFKA_BROKERS=localhost:9092 docker.redpanda.com/redpandadata/console:latest
Kafka is running remotely
Protected via SASL_SSL and trusted certificates (e.g. Confluent Cloud):
docker run -p 8080:8080 -e KAFKA_BROKERS=pkc-4r000.europe-west1.gcp.confluent.cloud:9092 -e KAFKA_TLS_ENABLED=true -e KAFKA_SASL_ENABLED=true -e KAFKA_SASL_USERNAME=xxx -e KAFKA_SASL_PASSWORD=xxx docker.redpanda.com/redpandadata/console:latest
I don't have a running Kafka cluster to test against
We maintain a docker-compose file that launches Redpanda and Console: /docs/local.
