Sarama is an MIT-licensed Go client library for Apache Kafka 0.8 (and later).
Documentation is available via godoc at http://godoc.org/github.com/Shopify/sarama
There is a google group for Kafka client users and authors at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/kafka-clients
Sarama is compatible with Go 1.2, 1.3, and 1.4.
A word of warning: the API is not 100% stable. It won't change much (in particular the low-level Broker and Request/Response objects could probably be considered frozen) but there may be the occasional parameter added or function renamed. As far as semantic versioning is concerned, we haven't quite hit 1.0.0 yet. It is absolutely stable enough to use, just expect that you might have to tweak things when you update to a newer version.
