Creating a Kafka Topic

cd into the Kafka directory, and run the following command to create a new topic:

./bin/kafka-topics.sh --create --topic thetechcheck --replication-factor 1 --partitions 1 --zookeeper localhost:2181

Running the SpringBoot application

cd into the project directory and run the following command to create a .jar file of the project:

mvn clean install

This will create a .jar file in the target directory, inside the project directory. Now to run the project, run the following command from the same project directory:

java -jar target/<name_of_jar_file>.jar

You should now be seeing the output in the terminal.
