Function kafka_util::admin::create_new_topic

pub async fn create_new_topic<'a, C>(

Creates a Kafka topic and waits for it to be reported in the broker metadata.

This function is a wrapper around AdminClient::create_topics that attempts to ensure the topic creation has propagated throughout the Kafka cluster before returning. Kafka topic creation is asynchronous, so attempting to consume from or produce to a topic immediately after its creation can result in “unknown topic” errors.

This function does not return successfully unless it can find the metadata for the newly-created topic in a call to rdkafka::client::Client::fetch_metadata and verify that the metadata reports the topic has the number of partitions requested in new_topic. Empirically, this seems to be the condition that guarantees that future attempts to consume from or produce to the topic will succeed.
