$ ./kafkaclient -h
Usage of ./client:
 -ca string
  CA Certificate (default "ca.pem")
 -cert string
  Client Certificate (default "cert.pem")
 -command string
  consumer|producer (default "consumer")
 -host string
  Common separated kafka hosts (default "localhost:9093")
 -key string
  Client Key (default "key.pem")
 -partition int
  Kafka topic partition
 -tls
  TLS enable
 -topic string
  Kafka topic (default "test--topic")
