在ConsumerConfig这个类中定义了这个属性的默认值，如下图

也就是默认值为latest,它的含义是：如果没有客户端提交过offset的话，当新的客户端消费时，把最新的offset设置为当前消费的offset.

默认是自动提交位移的，每5秒进行一次提交。可以通过参数配置手动提交。

手动提交offset的示例

import org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.ConsumerConfig;
import org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.ConsumerRecord;
import org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.ConsumerRecords;
import org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.KafkaConsumer;
import org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.ProducerConfig;
import org.apache.kafka.common.PartitionInfo;
import org.apache.kafka.common.TopicPartition;
import org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringDeserializer;
import org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringSerializer;import java.time.Duration;
import java.time.temporal.TemporalUnit;
import java.util.*;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
