lmurawsk/kafka repository overview

⁠Apache Kafka with sample Kafka Connect connector

Kafka, Zookeeper and maven (in order to compile Kafka Connect connectors) in a single Docker

Nothing else is needed to run a single Kafka broker.

⁠Quickstart

Scenario

Move only 'body' parts of the messages from RabbitMQ to Kafka topic. Optional step - read messages from kafka topic and display them on your terminal screen.

Step-by-step guide

Copy config files from /sample_config directory to your /host/volume. Adjust settings to meet your needs. Don't forget to set advertised.host.name at the bottom of the server.properties file.

Run docker with config files from your /host/volume

docker run -dt -v /host/volume:/opt/kafka_2.11-0.10.2.0/config/ --name my_kafka -p 2181:2181 -p 9092:9092 lmurawsk/kafka:10.2

Log in to the container:

docker exec -it my_kafka bash

Go to Kafka home directory:

cd $KAFKA_HOME

Start RabbitMQ connector (thanks to https://github.com/jcustenborder/kafka-connect-rabbitmq⁠):

./bin/connect-standalone.sh config/connect-standalone.properties config/RabbitMQSourceConnector.properties

Optionally

To display those messages in you console, start a consumer:

./bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --topic topic_name --from-beginning
