Description

Since V2.2.0, the -zookeeper option turned into deprecated because Kafka can directly connect to brokers with --bootstrap-server (KIP-377). But in the official documentation, there are many example commands use --zookeeper instead of --bootstrap-server. Follow the command in the documentation, you'll get this warning, which is not good.

Warning: --zookeeper is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of Kafka.
Use --bootstrap-server instead to specify a broker to connect to.
