Checking the existence of a kafka topic in Faust app

Question

I am new to Faust.

Task in hand is to make sure a few Kafka topics exist. Idea is to check if all the required topics exist in app's liveliness check.

I have gone through Faust documentation but didn't find a way to do that. Is it even possible to do that in Faust application?

Can we use native Kafka list topics in Faust

Assuming you have Java installed where Faust is running, you could run a shell command, sure.

Otherwise, you can use kafka-python or confluent-kafka-python AdminClient's to check for topic existence
