Description
===========

Creates a group-cursor.

The top level –endpoint parameter must be supplied for this operation.


Usage
=====

   oci streaming stream cursor create-group-cursor [OPTIONS]


Required Parameters
===================

--group-name [text]

Name of the consumer group.

--stream-id [text]

The OCID of the stream.

--type [text]

The type of the cursor. This value is only used when the group is
created.

Accepted values are:

   AT_TIME, LATEST, TRIM_HORIZON


Optional Parameters
===================

--commit-on-get [boolean]

When using consumer-groups, the default commit-on-get behaviour can be
overriden by setting this value to false. If disabled, a consumer must
manually commit their cursors.

--from-json [text]

Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the
file://path-to/file syntax.

The "--generate-full-command-json-input" option can be used to
generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The
key names are pre-populated and match the command option names
(converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId),
while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before
using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command
option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a
JSON array.

Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists
in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line
specified value will be used.

For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with
advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Conte
nt/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

--instance-name [text]

A unique identifier for the instance joining the consumer group. If an
instanceName is not provided, a UUID will be generated and used.
