Kafka

The client package provides single purpose clients for publishing synchronous/asynchronous messages and for consuming selected topics.

The mux package uses these clients and allows to share their access to kafka brokers among multiple entities. This package also implements the generic messaging API defined in the parent package.

Requirements

Minimal supported version of kafka is determined by sarama library - Kafka 0.10 and 0.9, although older releases are still likely to work.

If you don't have kafka installed locally you can use docker image for testing:

sudo docker run -p 2181:2181 -p 9092:9092 --name kafka --rm \
--env ADVERTISED_HOST=172.17.0.1 --env ADVERTISED_PORT=9092 spotify/kafka

Kafka plugin

Kafka plugin provides access to kafka brokers.

API

The plugin's API is documented at the end of doc.go.

Configuration

  • Location of the Kafka configuration file can be defined either by command line flag kafka-config or set via KAFKA_CONFIG env variable.

Status Check

  • Kafka plugin has a mechanism to periodically check a connection status of the Kafka server.

Overview

Package kafka implements a client for the Kafka broker. The client supports sending and receiving of messages through the Kafka message bus. It provides both sync and async Producers for sending Kafka messages and a Consumer for retrieving Kafka messages.

A Producer sends messages to Kafka. A Producer can be either synchronous or asynchronous. Request to send a message using a synchronous producer blocks until the message is published or an error is returned. A request sent using asynchronous producer returns immediately and the success or failure is communicated to the sender through a separate status channels.

A Consumer receives messages from Kafka for one or more topics. When a consumer is initialized,it automatically balances/shares the total number partitions for a message topic over all the active brokers for a topic. Message offsets can optionally be committed to Kafka so that when a consumer is restarted or a new consumer is initiated it knows where to begin reading messages from the Kafka message log.

The package also provides a Multiplexer that allows to share consumer and producers instances among multiple entities called Connections. Apart from reusing the access to kafka brokers, the Multiplexer marks the offset of consumed message as read. Offset marking allows to consume messages from the last committed offset after the restart of the Multiplexer.

Note: Marking offset does not necessarily commit the offset to the backend store immediately. This might result in a corner case where a message might be delivered multiple times.

Usage of synchronous producer:

// create minimal configuration
config := client.NewConfig()
config.SetBrokers("ip_addr:port", "ip_addr2:port")

producer, err := client.NewSyncProducer(config, nil)
if err != nil {
	os.Exit(1)
}
// key and value are of type []byte
producer.SendMsgByte(topic, key, value, meta)

// key and value are of type Encoder
producer.SendMsgToPartition(topic, key, value, meta)

Usage of asynchronous producer:

succCh := make(chan *client.ProducerMessage)
errCh := make(chan *client.ProducerError)

// init config
config := client.NewConfig()
config.SetSendSuccess(true)
config.SetSuccessChan(succCh)
config.SetSendError(true)
config.SetErrorChan(errCh)
config.SetBrokers("ip_addr:port", "ip_addr2:port")

// init producer
producer, err := client.NewAsyncProducer(config, nil)

go func() {
eventLoop:
	for {
		select {
		case <-producer.GetCloseChannel():
			break eventLoop
		case msg := <-succCh:
			fmt.Println("message sent successfully - ", msg)
		case err := <-errCh:
			fmt.Println("message errored - ", err)
		}
	}
}()

producer.SendMsgByte(topic, key, value, meta)

Usage of consumer:

        config := client.NewConfig()
	config.SetRecvNotification(true)
	config.SetRecvNotificationChan(make(chan *cluster.Notification))
	config.SetRecvError(true)
	config.SetRecvErrorChan(make(chan error))
	config.SetRecvMessageChan(make(chan *client.ConsumerMessage))
	config.SetBrokers("ip_addr:port", "ip_addr2:port2")
	config.SetTopics("topic1,topic2")
	config.SetGroup("Group1")

	consumer, err := client.NewConsumer(config, nil)
	if err != nil {
		log.Errorf("NewConsumer Error: %v", err)
		os.Exit(1)
	}

	go func() {
		for {
			select {
			case notification := <-config.RecvNotificationChan:
				handleNotifcation(consumer)
			case err := <-config.RecvErrorChan:
				fmt.Printf("Message Recv Errored: %v\n", err)
			case msg := <-config.RecvMessageChan:
				messageCallback(consumer, msg, *commit)
			case <-consumer.GetCloseChannel():
				return
			}
		}
	}()

In addition to basic sync/async producer and consumer the Multiplexer is provided. It's behaviour is depicted below:

+---------------+              +--------------------+
| Connection #1 |------+       |    Multiplexer     |
+---------------+      |       |                    |
                       |       |    sync producer   |
+---------------+      |       |   async producer   |		       /------------\
| Connection #2 |------+-----> |    consumer        |<---------->/    Kafka     \
+---------------+      |       |                    |            \--------------/
                       |       |                    |
+---------------+      |       |                    |
| Connection #3 |------+       +--------------------+
+---------------+

To initialize multiplexer run:

mx, err := mux.InitMultiplexer(pathToConfig, "name")

The config file specifies addresses of kafka brokers:

addrs:
  - "ip_addr1:port"
  - "ip_addr2:port"

To create a Connection that reuses Multiplexer access to kafka run:

cn := mx.NewBytesConnection("c1")

or

cn := mx.NewProtoConnection("c1")

Afterwards you can produce messages using sync API:

partition, offset, err := cn.SendSyncString("test", "key", "value")

or you can use async API:

	succCh := make(chan *client.ProducerMessage, 10)
	errCh := make(chan *client.ProducerError, 10)
        cn.SendAsyncString("test", "key", "async message", "meta", succCh, errCh)

        // check if the async send succeeded
        go func() {
           select {
	   case success := <-succCh:
		fmt.Println("Successfully send async msg", success.Metadata)
	   case err := <-errCh:
		fmt.Println("Error while sending async msg", err.Err, err.Msg.Metadata)
	   }
	}()

subscribe to consume a topic:

	consumerChan := make(chan *client.ConsumerMessage
        err = cn.ConsumeTopic("test", consumerChan)

	if err == nil {
		fmt.Println("Consuming test partition")
		go func() {
			eventLoop:
				for {
					select {
					case msg := <-consumerChan:
						fmt.Println(string(msg.Key), string(msg.Value))
					case <-signalChan:
						break eventLoop
					}
				}
		}()
	}

Once all connection have subscribed for topic consumption. You have to run the following function to actually initialize the consumer inside the Multiplexer.

mx.Start()

To properly clean up the Multiplexer call:

mx.Close()

The KAFKA plugin

Once kafka plugin is initialized

plugin := kafka.Plugin{}
// Init called by agent core

The plugin allows to create connections:

conn := plugin.NewConnection("name")

or connection that support proto-modelled messages:

protoConn := plugin.NewProtoConnection("protoConnection")

The usage of connections is described above.
