Not able to view kafka consumer output while executing in ECLIPSE: PySpark

Question

I installed kafka and zookeeper in windows system. i have started kafka and zookeeper servers, created topic "javainuse-topic" , started producer and consumer with the below commands

.\bin\windows\zookeeper-server-start.bat .\config\zookeeper.properties

.\bin\windows\kafka-server-start.bat .\config\server.properties

.\bin\windows\kafka-topics.bat --create --zookeeper localhost:2181 --replication-factor 1 --partitions 1 --topic javainuse-topic

.\bin\windows\kafka-console-producer.bat --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic javainuse-topic

.\bin\windows\kafka-console-consumer.bat --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --topic javainuse-topic --from-beginning

i am able to transfer data successfully from producer to consumer. So, i have wrote below code in eclipse and tried to execute it in local. but i am not able to view the consumer data in my eclipse console.

import os
os.environ['PYSPARK_SUBMIT_ARGS'] = '--packages org.apache.spark:spark-streaming-kafka-0-8_2.11:2.3.0 pyspark-shell'

import sys
import time
from pyspark import SparkContext, SparkConf
from pyspark.streaming import StreamingContext
from pyspark.streaming.kafka import KafkaUtils


n_secs = 1
topic = "javainuse-topic"

conf = SparkConf().setAppName("KafkaStreamProcessor").setMaster("local[*]")
sc = SparkContext(conf=conf)
sc.setLogLevel("WARN")
ssc = StreamingContext(sc, n_secs)
    
kafkaStream = KafkaUtils.createDirectStream(ssc, [topic], {
                        'bootstrap.servers':'localhost:9092', 
                        'group.id':'javainuse-topic', 
                        'fetch.message.max.bytes':'15728640',
                        'auto.offset.reset':'largest'})
                        # Group ID is completely arbitrary

lines = kafkaStream.map(lambda x: x[1])
counts = lines.flatMap(lambda line: line.split(" ")).map(lambda word: (word, 1)).reduceByKey(lambda a, b: a+b)
counts.pprint()

ssc.start()
time.sleep(6) # Run stream for 10 minutes just in case no detection of producer
# ssc.awaitTermination()
ssc.stop(stopSparkContext=True,stopGraceFully=True)

You might try again but this time setting auto.offset.reset to 'earliest' (or 'smallest' if you are using the old consumer).

kafkaStream = KafkaUtils.createDirectStream(ssc, [topic], {
                        'bootstrap.servers':'localhost:9092', 
                        'group.id':'javainuse-topic', 
                        'fetch.message.max.bytes':'15728640',
                        'auto.offset.reset':'earliest'})
                        # Group ID is completely arbitrary
