"records-lead-min"

Also, add per-partition lead metrics metric to KafkaConsumer. The metric names name would be:

"records-lead"

"recordsTOPIC-PARTITION_ID.record-lead-min"

"TOPIC-PARTITION_ID.record-records-lead-avg"

The way to get the metrics is the same as getting other per-partition metrics. For example:

TopicPartition tp = new TopicPartition("topic", 0);
HashMap<String, String> tags = new HashMap<>();
tags.put("client-id", "metricTestConsumer0");
tags.put("topic", tp.topic());
tags.put("partition", String.valueOf(tp.partition());

double currentPartitionLead = kafkaConsumer.metrics().get(new MetricName("records-lead", "consumer-fetch-manager-metrics", "", tags)).value();
double currentPartitionMinLead = kafkaConsumer.metrics().get(new MetricName("records-lead-min", "consumer-fetch-manager-metrics", "", tags)).value();
double currentPartitionAvgLead = kafkaConsumer.metrics().get(new MetricName("records-lead-avg", "consumer-fetch-manager-metrics", "", tags)).value();

When the consumer does not own a partition anymore, all lead metrics including client-level and partition-level ones will be removed."TOPIC-PARTITION_ID.record-lead-min" 

Compatibility, Deprecation, and Migration Plan

• What impact (if any) will there be on existing users?
• If we are changing behavior how will we phase out the older behavior?
• If we need special migration tools, describe them here.
• When will we remove the existing behavior?

Rejected Alternatives

The change is fully backwards compatible.

Rejected Alternatives

NoneIf there are alternative ways of accomplishing the same thing, what were they? The purpose of this section is to motivate why the design is the way it is and not some other way.
