How to provide number of partitions and replication factor in KafkaBroker

[didhat]

Hello, I use confluent kafka broker and it works nice for me. Bud I have problem, I can not set up number of partitions and replication factor for topics and default values num_partitions=1, replication_factor=1 are not suitable for my environment. Because of this I have to turn off automatic topic creation and do it manually. I found code code that create topics and there num_partitions and replication_factor are hardcoded. Is there any a special reason why this done this way or is it possible to change this behavior and add the ability to set these parameters yourself?

Hello @didhat,

That was created as a temporary fix and the idea behind it was that almost all the time users would have existing topics and faststream merely acts as a bridge for produce/subscribe.

Anyway I agree that this is a bug and I have created an issue for it - #1827.

Thanks for letting us know and sorry for the late reply.
