How to list/add/remove users

[evangelosar]

Hello! I want to get a list of all users, add a new user (with SCRAM credentials) and remove an existing user. Is there a way I can do these operations using the kafkajs library?

The respective CLI commands for these operations are the following:

List all users ./bin/kafka-configs.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181 --describe --entity-type users

Add new user ./bin/kafka-configs.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181 --alter --add-config 'SCRAM-SHA-256=[password=test-password]' --entity-type users --entity-name test-user

Remove user ./bin/kafka-configs.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181 --alter --delete-config 'SCRAM-SHA-256' --entity-type users --entity-name test-user

Environment:

• OS: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
• KafkaJS version 1.15.0
• Kafka version 2.7.0
• NodeJS version v12.20.2

As far as I can see, the feature is still missing. However, I'd love to see it too...
