Motivations

We rely on both Go and Kafka a lot at Segment. Unfortunately, the state of the Go client libraries for Kafka at the time of this writing was not ideal. The available options were:

  • sarama, which is by far the most popular but is quite difficult to work with. It is poorly documented, the API exposes low level concepts of the Kafka protocol, and it doesn't support recent Go features like contexts. It also passes all values as pointers which causes large numbers of dynamic memory allocations, more frequent garbage collections, and higher memory usage.

  • confluent-kafka-go is a cgo based wrapper around librdkafka, which means it introduces a dependency to a C library on all Go code that uses the package. It has much better documentation than sarama but still lacks support for Go contexts.

  • goka is a more recent Kafka client for Go which focuses on a specific usage pattern. It provides abstractions for using Kafka as a message passing bus between services rather than an ordered log of events, but this is not the typical use case of Kafka for us at Segment. The package also depends on sarama for all interactions with Kafka.

This is where kafka-go comes into play. It provides both low and high level APIs for interacting with Kafka, mirroring concepts and implementing interfaces of the Go standard library to make it easy to use and integrate with existing software.

Migrating to 0.4

Version 0.4 introduces a few breaking changes to the repository structure which should have minimal impact on programs and should only manifest at compile time (the runtime behavior should remain unchanged).

  • Programs do not need to import compression packages anymore in order to read compressed messages from kafka. All compression codecs are supported by default.

  • Programs that used the compression codecs directly must be adapted. Compression codecs are now exposed in the compress sub-package.

  • The experimental kafka.Client API has been updated and slightly modified: the kafka.NewClient function and kafka.ClientConfig type were removed. Programs now configure the client values directly through exported fields.

  • The kafka.(*Client).ConsumerOffsets method is now deprecated (along with the kafka.TopicAndGroup type, and will be removed when we release version 1.0. Programs should use the kafka.(*Client).OffsetFetch API instead.

With 0.4, we know that we are starting to introduce a bit more complexity in the code, but the plan is to eventually converge towards a simpler and more effective API, allowing us to keep up with Kafka's ever growing feature set, and bringing a more efficient implementation to programs depending on kafka-go.

We truly appreciate everyone's input and contributions, which have made this project way more than what it was when we started it, and we're looking forward to receive more feedback on where we should take it.

Kafka versions

kafka-go is currently compatible with Kafka versions from 0.10.1.0 to 2.1.0. While latest versions will be working, some features available from the Kafka API may not be implemented yet.

Golang version

kafka-go is currently compatible with golang version from 1.13+. To use with older versions of golang use release v0.2.5.

Connection GoDoc

The Conn type is the core of the kafka-go package. It wraps around a raw network connection to expose a low-level API to a Kafka server.

Here are some examples showing typical use of a connection object:

// to produce messages
topic := "my-topic"
partition := 0

conn, err := kafka.DialLeader(context.Background(), "tcp", "localhost:9092", topic, partition)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to dial leader:", err)
}

conn.SetWriteDeadline(time.Now().Add(10*time.Second))
_, err = conn.WriteMessages(
    kafka.Message{Value: []byte("one!")},
    kafka.Message{Value: []byte("two!")},
    kafka.Message{Value: []byte("three!")},
)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to write messages:", err)
}

if err := conn.Close(); err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to close writer:", err)
}
// to consume messages
topic := "my-topic"
partition := 0

conn, err := kafka.DialLeader(context.Background(), "tcp", "localhost:9092", topic, partition)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to dial leader:", err)
}

conn.SetReadDeadline(time.Now().Add(10*time.Second))
batch := conn.ReadBatch(10e3, 1e6) // fetch 10KB min, 1MB max

b := make([]byte, 10e3) // 10KB max per message
for {
    _, err := batch.Read(b)
    if err != nil {
        break
    }
    fmt.Println(string(b))
}

if err := batch.Close(); err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to close batch:", err)
}

if err := conn.Close(); err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to close connection:", err)
}
To Create Topics

By default kafka has the auto.create.topics.enable='true' (KAFKA_AUTO_CREATE_TOPICS_ENABLE='true' in the wurstmeister/kafka kafka docker image). If this value is set to 'true' then topics will be created as a side effect of kafka.DialLeader like so:

// to create topics when auto.create.topics.enable='true'
conn, err := kafka.DialLeader(context.Background(), "tcp", "localhost:9092", "my-topic", 0)
if err != nil {
    panic(err.Error())
}

If auto.create.topics.enable='false' then you will need to create topics explicitly like so:

// to create topics when auto.create.topics.enable='false'
topic := "my-topic"
partition := 0

conn, err := kafka.Dial("tcp", "localhost:9092")
if err != nil {
    panic(err.Error())
}
defer conn.Close()

controller, err := conn.Controller()
if err != nil {
    panic(err.Error())
}
var controllerConn *kafka.Conn
controllerConn, err = kafka.Dial("tcp", net.JoinHostPort(controller.Host, strconv.Itoa(controller.Port)))
if err != nil {
    panic(err.Error())
}
defer controllerConn.Close()


topicConfigs := []kafka.TopicConfig{
    kafka.TopicConfig{
        Topic:             topic,
        NumPartitions:     1,
        ReplicationFactor: 1,
    },
}

err = controllerConn.CreateTopics(topicConfigs...)
if err != nil {
    panic(err.Error())
}
To Connect To Leader Via a Non-leader Connection
// to connect to the kafka leader via an existing non-leader connection rather than using DialLeader
conn, err := kafka.Dial("tcp", "localhost:9092")
if err != nil {
    panic(err.Error())
}
defer conn.Close()
controller, err := conn.Controller()
if err != nil {
    panic(err.Error())
}
var connLeader *kafka.Conn
connLeader, err = kafka.Dial("tcp", net.JoinHostPort(controller.Host, strconv.Itoa(controller.Port)))
if err != nil {
    panic(err.Error())
}
defer connLeader.Close()
To list topics
conn, err := kafka.Dial("tcp", "localhost:9092")
if err != nil {
    panic(err.Error())
}
defer conn.Close()

partitions, err := conn.ReadPartitions()
if err != nil {
    panic(err.Error())
}

m := map[string]struct{}{}

for _, p := range partitions {
    m[p.Topic] = struct{}{}
}
for k := range m {
    fmt.Println(k)
}

Because it is low level, the Conn type turns out to be a great building block for higher level abstractions, like the Reader for example.

Reader GoDoc

A Reader is another concept exposed by the kafka-go package, which intends to make it simpler to implement the typical use case of consuming from a single topic-partition pair. A Reader also automatically handles reconnections and offset management, and exposes an API that supports asynchronous cancellations and timeouts using Go contexts.

Note that it is important to call Close() on a Reader when a process exits. The kafka server needs a graceful disconnect to stop it from continuing to attempt to send messages to the connected clients. The given example will not call Close() if the process is terminated with SIGINT (ctrl-c at the shell) or SIGTERM (as docker stop or a kubernetes restart does). This can result in a delay when a new reader on the same topic connects (e.g. new process started or new container running). Use a signal.Notify handler to close the reader on process shutdown.

// make a new reader that consumes from topic-A, partition 0, at offset 42
r := kafka.NewReader(kafka.ReaderConfig{
    Brokers:   []string{"localhost:9092"},
    Topic:     "topic-A",
    Partition: 0,
    MinBytes:  10e3, // 10KB
    MaxBytes:  10e6, // 10MB
})
r.SetOffset(42)

for {
    m, err := r.ReadMessage(context.Background())
    if err != nil {
        break
    }
    fmt.Printf("message at offset %d: %s = %s\n", m.Offset, string(m.Key), string(m.Value))
}

if err := r.Close(); err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to close reader:", err)
}
Consumer Groups

kafka-go also supports Kafka consumer groups including broker managed offsets. To enable consumer groups, simply specify the GroupID in the ReaderConfig.

ReadMessage automatically commits offsets when using consumer groups.

// make a new reader that consumes from topic-A
r := kafka.NewReader(kafka.ReaderConfig{
    Brokers:   []string{"localhost:9092"},
    GroupID:   "consumer-group-id",
    Topic:     "topic-A",
    MinBytes:  10e3, // 10KB
    MaxBytes:  10e6, // 10MB
})

for {
    m, err := r.ReadMessage(context.Background())
    if err != nil {
        break
    }
    fmt.Printf("message at topic/partition/offset %v/%v/%v: %s = %s\n", m.Topic, m.Partition, m.Offset, string(m.Key), string(m.Value))
}

if err := r.Close(); err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to close reader:", err)
}

There are a number of limitations when using consumer groups:

  • (*Reader).SetOffset will return an error when GroupID is set
  • (*Reader).Offset will always return -1 when GroupID is set
  • (*Reader).Lag will always return -1 when GroupID is set
  • (*Reader).ReadLag will return an error when GroupID is set
  • (*Reader).Stats will return a partition of -1 when GroupID is set
Explicit Commits

kafka-go also supports explicit commits. Instead of calling ReadMessage, call FetchMessage followed by CommitMessages.

ctx := context.Background()
for {
    m, err := r.FetchMessage(ctx)
    if err != nil {
        break
    }
    fmt.Printf("message at topic/partition/offset %v/%v/%v: %s = %s\n", m.Topic, m.Partition, m.Offset, string(m.Key), string(m.Value))
    if err := r.CommitMessages(ctx, m); err != nil {
        log.Fatal("failed to commit messages:", err)
    }
}
Managing Commits

By default, CommitMessages will synchronously commit offsets to Kafka. For improved performance, you can instead periodically commit offsets to Kafka by setting CommitInterval on the ReaderConfig.

// make a new reader that consumes from topic-A
r := kafka.NewReader(kafka.ReaderConfig{
    Brokers:        []string{"localhost:9092"},
    GroupID:        "consumer-group-id",
    Topic:          "topic-A",
    MinBytes:       10e3, // 10KB
    MaxBytes:       10e6, // 10MB
    CommitInterval: time.Second, // flushes commits to Kafka every second
})

Writer GoDoc

To produce messages to Kafka, a program may use the low-level Conn API, but the package also provides a higher level Writer type which is more appropriate to use in most cases as it provides additional features:

  • Automatic retries and reconnections on errors.
  • Configurable distribution of messages across available partitions.
  • Synchronous or asynchronous writes of messages to Kafka.
  • Asynchronous cancellation using contexts.
  • Flushing of pending messages on close to support graceful shutdowns.
// make a writer that produces to topic-A, using the least-bytes distribution
w := &kafka.Writer{
	Addr:     kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
	Topic:   "topic-A",
	Balancer: &kafka.LeastBytes{},
}

err := w.WriteMessages(context.Background(),
	kafka.Message{
		Key:   []byte("Key-A"),
		Value: []byte("Hello World!"),
	},
	kafka.Message{
		Key:   []byte("Key-B"),
		Value: []byte("One!"),
	},
	kafka.Message{
		Key:   []byte("Key-C"),
		Value: []byte("Two!"),
	},
)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to write messages:", err)
}

if err := w.Close(); err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to close writer:", err)
}
Writing to multiple topics

Normally, the WriterConfig.Topic is used to initialize a single-topic writer. By excluding that particular configuration, you are given the ability to define the topic on a per-message basis by setting Message.Topic.

w := &kafka.Writer{
	Addr:     kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
    // NOTE: When Topic is not defined here, each Message must define it instead.
	Balancer: &kafka.LeastBytes{},
}

err := w.WriteMessages(context.Background(),
    // NOTE: Each Message has Topic defined, otherwise an error is returned.
	kafka.Message{
        Topic: "topic-A",
		Key:   []byte("Key-A"),
		Value: []byte("Hello World!"),
	},
	kafka.Message{
        Topic: "topic-B",
		Key:   []byte("Key-B"),
		Value: []byte("One!"),
	},
	kafka.Message{
        Topic: "topic-C",
		Key:   []byte("Key-C"),
		Value: []byte("Two!"),
	},
)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to write messages:", err)
}

if err := w.Close(); err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to close writer:", err)
}

NOTE: These 2 patterns are mutually exclusive, if you set Writer.Topic, you must not also explicitly define Message.Topic on the messages you are writing. The opposite applies when you do not define a topic for the writer. The Writer will return an error if it detects this ambiguity.

Compatibility with other clients
Sarama

If you're switching from Sarama and need/want to use the same algorithm for message partitioning, you can use the kafka.Hash balancer. kafka.Hash routes messages to the same partitions that Sarama's default partitioner would route to.

w := &kafka.Writer{
	Addr:     kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
	Topic:    "topic-A",
	Balancer: &kafka.Hash{},
}
librdkafka and confluent-kafka-go

Use the kafka.CRC32Balancer balancer to get the same behaviour as librdkafka's default consistent_random partition strategy.

w := &kafka.Writer{
	Addr:     kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
	Topic:    "topic-A",
	Balancer: kafka.CRC32Balancer{},
}
Java

Use the kafka.Murmur2Balancer balancer to get the same behaviour as the canonical Java client's default partitioner. Note: the Java class allows you to directly specify the partition which is not permitted.

w := &kafka.Writer{
	Addr:     kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
	Topic:    "topic-A",
	Balancer: kafka.Murmur2Balancer{},
}
Compression

Compression can be enabled on the Writer by setting the Compression field:

w := &kafka.Writer{
	Addr:        kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
	Topic:       "topic-A",
	Compression: kafka.Snappy,
}

The Reader will by determine if the consumed messages are compressed by examining the message attributes. However, the package(s) for all expected codecs must be imported so that they get loaded correctly.

Note: in versions prior to 0.4 programs had to import compression packages to install codecs and support reading compressed messages from kafka. This is no longer the case and import of the compression packages are now no-ops.

TLS Support

For a bare bones Conn type or in the Reader/Writer configs you can specify a dialer option for TLS support. If the TLS field is nil, it will not connect with TLS.

Connection
dialer := &kafka.Dialer{
    Timeout:   10 * time.Second,
    DualStack: true,
    TLS:       &tls.Config{...tls config...},
}

conn, err := dialer.DialContext(ctx, "tcp", "localhost:9093")
Reader
dialer := &kafka.Dialer{
    Timeout:   10 * time.Second,
    DualStack: true,
    TLS:       &tls.Config{...tls config...},
}

r := kafka.NewReader(kafka.ReaderConfig{
    Brokers:        []string{"localhost:9093"},
    GroupID:        "consumer-group-id",
    Topic:          "topic-A",
    Dialer:         dialer,
})
Writer
dialer := &kafka.Dialer{
    Timeout:   10 * time.Second,
    DualStack: true,
    TLS:       &tls.Config{...tls config...},
}

w := kafka.NewWriter(kafka.WriterConfig{
	Brokers: []string{"localhost:9093"},
	Topic:   "topic-A",
	Balancer: &kafka.Hash{},
	Dialer:   dialer,
})

SASL Support

You can specify an option on the Dialer to use SASL authentication. The Dialer can be used directly to open a Conn or it can be passed to a Reader or Writer via their respective configs. If the SASLMechanism field is nil, it will not authenticate with SASL.

SASL Authentication Types
Plain
mechanism := plain.Mechanism{
    Username: "username",
    Password: "password",
}
SCRAM
mechanism, err := scram.Mechanism(scram.SHA512, "username", "password")
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
Connection
mechanism, err := scram.Mechanism(scram.SHA512, "username", "password")
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

dialer := &kafka.Dialer{
    Timeout:       10 * time.Second,
    DualStack:     true,
    SASLMechanism: mechanism,
}

conn, err := dialer.DialContext(ctx, "tcp", "localhost:9093")
Reader
mechanism, err := scram.Mechanism(scram.SHA512, "username", "password")
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

dialer := &kafka.Dialer{
    Timeout:       10 * time.Second,
    DualStack:     true,
    SASLMechanism: mechanism,
}

r := kafka.NewReader(kafka.ReaderConfig{
    Brokers:        []string{"localhost:9093"},
    GroupID:        "consumer-group-id",
    Topic:          "topic-A",
    Dialer:         dialer,
})
Writer
mechanism, err := scram.Mechanism(scram.SHA512, "username", "password")
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

dialer := &kafka.Dialer{
    Timeout:       10 * time.Second,
    DualStack:     true,
    SASLMechanism: mechanism,
}

w := kafka.NewWriter(kafka.WriterConfig{
	Brokers: []string{"localhost:9093"},
	Topic:   "topic-A",
	Balancer: &kafka.Hash{},
	Dialer:   dialer,
})
Reading all messages within a time range
startTime := time.Now().Add(-time.Hour)
endTime := time.Now()
batchSize := int(10e6) // 10MB

r := kafka.NewReader(kafka.ReaderConfig{
    Brokers:   []string{"localhost:9092"},
    Topic:     "my-topic1",
    Partition: 0,
    MinBytes:  batchSize,
    MaxBytes:  batchSize,
})

r.SetOffsetAt(context.Background(), startTime)

for {
    m, err := r.ReadMessage(context.Background())

    if err != nil {
        break
    }
    if m.Time.After(endTime) {
        break
    }
    // TODO: process message
    fmt.Printf("message at offset %d: %s = %s\n", m.Offset, string(m.Key), string(m.Value))
}

if err := r.Close(); err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to close reader:", err)
}

Testing

Subtle behavior changes in later Kafka versions have caused some historical tests to break, if you are running against Kafka 2.3.1 or later, exporting the KAFKA_SKIP_NETTEST=1 environment variables will skip those tests.

Run Kafka locally in docker

docker-compose up -d

Run tests

KAFKA_VERSION=2.3.1 \
  KAFKA_SKIP_NETTEST=1 \
  go test -race ./...

Functions

func Marshal added in v0.4.0

func Marshal(v interface{}) ([]byte, error)

Marshal encodes v into a binary representation of the value in the kafka data format.

If v is a, or contains struct types, the kafka struct fields are interpreted and may contain one of these values:

nullable  valid on bytes and strings, encodes as a nullable value
compact   valid on strings, encodes as a compact string

The kafka struct tags should not contain min and max versions. If you need to encode types based on specific versions of kafka APIs, use the Version type instead.

func ReadAll added in v0.4.0

func ReadAll(b Bytes) ([]byte, error)

ReadAll reads b into a byte slice.

func TCP added in v0.4.0

func TCP(address ...string) net.Addr

TCP constructs an address with the network set to "tcp".

func Unmarshal added in v0.4.0

func Unmarshal(b []byte, v interface{}) error

Unmarshal decodes a binary representation from b into v.

See Marshal for details.

	// ApiKey is the ID of the API.
	ApiKey int

	// ApiName is a human-friendly description of the API.
	ApiName string

	// MinVersion is the minimum API version supported by the broker.
	MinVersion int

	// MaxVersion is the maximum API version supported by the broker.
	MaxVersion int
}

ApiVersionsResponseApiKey includes the details of which versions are supported for a single API.

type Balancer

type Balancer interface {
	// Balance receives a message and a set of available partitions and
	// returns the partition number that the message should be routed to.
	//
	// An application should refrain from using a balancer to manage multiple
	// sets of partitions (from different topics for examples), use one balancer
	// instance for each partition set, so the balancer can detect when the
	// partitions change and assume that the kafka topic has been rebalanced.
	Balance(msg Message, partitions ...int) (partition int)
}

The Balancer interface provides an abstraction of the message distribution logic used by Writer instances to route messages to the partitions available on a kafka cluster.

Balancers must be safe to use concurrently from multiple goroutines.

type BalancerFunc

type BalancerFunc func(Message, ...int) int

BalancerFunc is an implementation of the Balancer interface that makes it possible to use regular functions to distribute messages across partitions.

func (BalancerFunc) Balance

func (f BalancerFunc) Balance(msg Message, partitions ...int) int

Balance calls f, satisfies the Balancer interface.

type Batch

type Batch struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

A Batch is an iterator over a sequence of messages fetched from a kafka server.

Batches are created by calling (*Conn).ReadBatch. They hold a internal lock on the connection, which is released when the batch is closed. Failing to call a batch's Close method will likely result in a dead-lock when trying to use the connection.

Batches are safe to use concurrently from multiple goroutines.

func (*Batch) Close

func (batch *Batch) Close() error

Close closes the batch, releasing the connection lock and returning an error if reading the batch failed for any reason.

func (*Batch) Err added in v0.2.5

func (batch *Batch) Err() error

Err returns a non-nil error if the batch is broken. This is the same error that would be returned by Read, ReadMessage or Close (except in the case of io.EOF which is never returned by Close).

This method is useful when building retry mechanisms for (*Conn).ReadBatch, the program can check whether the batch carried a error before attempting to read the first message.

Note that checking errors on a batch is optional, calling Read or ReadMessage is always valid and can be used to either read a message or an error in cases where that's convenient.

func (*Batch) HighWaterMark

func (batch *Batch) HighWaterMark() int64

Watermark returns the current highest watermark in a partition.

func (*Batch) Offset

func (batch *Batch) Offset() int64

Offset returns the offset of the next message in the batch.

func (*Batch) Partition added in v0.4.9

func (batch *Batch) Partition() int

Partition returns the batch partition.

func (*Batch) Read

func (batch *Batch) Read(b []byte) (int, error)

Read reads the value of the next message from the batch into b, returning the number of bytes read, or an error if the next message couldn't be read.

If an error is returned the batch cannot be used anymore and calling Read again will keep returning that error. All errors except io.EOF (indicating that the program consumed all messages from the batch) are also returned by Close.

The method fails with io.ErrShortBuffer if the buffer passed as argument is too small to hold the message value.

func (*Batch) ReadMessage

func (batch *Batch) ReadMessage() (Message, error)

ReadMessage reads and return the next message from the batch.

Because this method allocate memory buffers for the message key and value it is less memory-efficient than Read, but has the advantage of never failing with io.ErrShortBuffer.

func (*Batch) Throttle

func (batch *Batch) Throttle() time.Duration

Throttle gives the throttling duration applied by the kafka server on the connection.

type Broker

type Broker struct {
	Host string
	Port int
	ID   int
	Rack string
}

Broker represents a kafka broker in a kafka cluster.

type BrokerResolver added in v0.4.5

type BrokerResolver interface {
	// Returns the IP addresses of the broker passed as argument.
	LookupBrokerIPAddr(ctx context.Context, broker Broker) ([]net.IPAddr, error)
}

BrokerResolver is an interface implemented by types that translate host names into a network address.

This resolver is not intended to be a general purpose interface. Instead, it is tailored to the particular needs of the kafka protocol, with the goal being to provide a flexible mechanism for extending broker name resolution while retaining context that is specific to interacting with a kafka cluster.

Resolvers must be safe to use from multiple goroutines.

func NewBrokerResolver added in v0.4.5

func NewBrokerResolver(r *net.Resolver) BrokerResolver

NewBrokerResolver constructs a Resolver from r.

If r is nil, net.DefaultResolver is used instead.

type Bytes added in v0.4.0

type Bytes = protocol.Bytes

Bytes is an interface representing a sequence of bytes. This abstraction makes it possible for programs to inject data into produce requests without having to load in into an intermediary buffer, or read record keys and values from a fetch response directly from internal buffers.

Bytes are not safe to use concurrently from multiple goroutines.

func NewBytes added in v0.4.0

func NewBytes(b []byte) Bytes

NewBytes constructs a Bytes value from a byte slice.

If b is nil, nil is returned.

type CRC32Balancer added in v0.3.1

type CRC32Balancer struct {
	Consistent bool
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

CRC32Balancer is a Balancer that uses the CRC32 hash function to determine which partition to route messages to. This ensures that messages with the same key are routed to the same partition. This balancer is compatible with the built-in hash partitioners in librdkafka and the language bindings that are built on top of it, including the github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-go Go package.

With the Consistent field false (default), this partitioner is equivalent to the "consistent_random" setting in librdkafka. When Consistent is true, this partitioner is equivalent to the "consistent" setting. The latter will hash empty or nil keys into the same partition.

Unless you are absolutely certain that all your messages will have keys, it's best to leave the Consistent flag off. Otherwise, you run the risk of creating a very hot partition.

func (CRC32Balancer) Balance added in v0.3.1

func (b CRC32Balancer) Balance(msg Message, partitions ...int) (partition int)

type Client added in v0.2.5

type Client struct {
	// Address of the kafka cluster (or specific broker) that the client will be
	// sending requests to.
	//
	// This field is optional, the address may be provided in each request
	// instead. The request address takes precedence if both were specified.
	Addr net.Addr

	// Time limit for requests sent by this client.
	//
	// If zero, no timeout is applied.
	Timeout time.Duration

	// A transport used to communicate with the kafka brokers.
	//
	// If nil, DefaultTransport is used.
	Transport RoundTripper
}

Client is a high-level API to interract with kafka brokers.

All methods of the Client type accept a context as first argument, which may be used to asynchronously cancel the requests.

Clients are safe to use concurrently from multiple goroutines, as long as their configuration is not changed after first use.

func (*Client) AlterConfigs added in v0.4.9

func (c *Client) AlterConfigs(ctx context.Context, req *AlterConfigsRequest) (*AlterConfigsResponse, error)

AlterConfigs sends a config altering request to a kafka broker and returns the response.

func (*Client) AlterPartitionReassignments added in v0.4.9

func (c *Client) ApiVersions(
	ctx context.Context,
	req *ApiVersionsRequest,
) (*ApiVersionsResponse, error)

func (*Client) ConsumerOffsets added in v0.2.5

func (c *Client) ConsumerOffsets(ctx context.Context, tg TopicAndGroup) (map[int]int64, error)

ConsumerOffsets returns a map[int]int64 of partition to committed offset for a consumer group id and topic.

DEPRECATED: this method will be removed in version 1.0, programs should migrate to use kafka.(*Client).OffsetFetch instead.

func (*Client) CreatePartitions added in v0.4.9

func (c *Client) CreatePartitions(ctx context.Context, req *CreatePartitionsRequest) (*CreatePartitionsResponse, error)

CreatePartitions sends a partitions creation request to a kafka broker and returns the response.

type CompressionCodec

type CompressionCodec = compress.Codec

type ConfigEntry

type ConfigEntry struct {
	ConfigName  string
	ConfigValue string
}

type ConfigOperation added in v0.4.9

type ConfigOperation int8
const (
	ConfigOperationSet      ConfigOperation = 0
	ConfigOperationDelete   ConfigOperation = 1
	ConfigOperationAppend   ConfigOperation = 2
	ConfigOperationSubtract ConfigOperation = 3
)

type Conn

func NewConnWith

func NewConnWith(conn net.Conn, config ConnConfig) *Conn

NewConnWith returns a new kafka connection configured with config. The offset is initialized to FirstOffset.

func (*Conn) ApiVersions added in v0.2.3

func (c *Conn) ApiVersions() ([]ApiVersion, error)

func (*Conn) Broker added in v0.4.18

func (c *Conn) Broker() Broker

Broker returns a Broker value representing the kafka broker that this connection was established to.

func (*Conn) Brokers added in v0.2.3

func (c *Conn) Brokers() ([]Broker, error)

Brokers retrieve the broker list from the Kafka metadata

func (*Conn) Close

func (c *Conn) Close() error

Close closes the kafka connection.

func (*Conn) Controller added in v0.2.3

func (c *Conn) Controller() (broker Broker, err error)

Controller requests kafka for the current controller and returns its URL

func (*Conn) CreateTopics

func (c *Conn) CreateTopics(topics ...TopicConfig) error

CreateTopics creates one topic per provided configuration with idempotent operational semantics. In other words, if CreateTopics is invoked with a configuration for an existing topic, it will have no effect.

func (*Conn) DeleteTopics

func (c *Conn) DeleteTopics(topics ...string) error

DeleteTopics deletes the specified topics.

func (*Conn) LocalAddr

func (c *Conn) LocalAddr() net.Addr

LocalAddr returns the local network address.

func (*Conn) Offset

func (c *Conn) Offset() (offset int64, whence int)

Offset returns the current offset of the connection as pair of integers, where the first one is an offset value and the second one indicates how to interpret it.

See Seek for more details about the offset and whence values.

func (*Conn) Read

func (c *Conn) Read(b []byte) (int, error)

Read reads the message at the current offset from the connection, advancing the offset on success so the next call to a read method will produce the next message. The method returns the number of bytes read, or an error if something went wrong.

While it is safe to call Read concurrently from multiple goroutines it may be hard for the program to predict the results as the connection offset will be read and written by multiple goroutines, they could read duplicates, or messages may be seen by only some of the goroutines.

The method fails with io.ErrShortBuffer if the buffer passed as argument is too small to hold the message value.

This method is provided to satisfy the net.Conn interface but is much less efficient than using the more general purpose ReadBatch method.

func (*Conn) ReadBatch

func (c *Conn) ReadBatch(minBytes, maxBytes int) *Batch

ReadBatch reads a batch of messages from the kafka server. The method always returns a non-nil Batch value. If an error occurred, either sending the fetch request or reading the response, the error will be made available by the returned value of the batch's Close method.

While it is safe to call ReadBatch concurrently from multiple goroutines it may be hard for the program to predict the results as the connection offset will be read and written by multiple goroutines, they could read duplicates, or messages may be seen by only some of the goroutines.

A program doesn't specify the number of messages in wants from a batch, but gives the minimum and maximum number of bytes that it wants to receive from the kafka server.

func (*Conn) ReadBatchWith added in v0.2.3

func (c *Conn) ReadBatchWith(cfg ReadBatchConfig) *Batch

ReadBatchWith in every way is similar to ReadBatch. ReadBatch is configured with the default values in ReadBatchConfig except for minBytes and maxBytes.

func (*Conn) ReadFirstOffset

func (c *Conn) ReadFirstOffset() (int64, error)

ReadFirstOffset returns the first offset available on the connection.

func (*Conn) ReadLastOffset

func (c *Conn) ReadLastOffset() (int64, error)

ReadLastOffset returns the last offset available on the connection.

func (*Conn) ReadMessage

func (c *Conn) ReadMessage(maxBytes int) (Message, error)

ReadMessage reads the message at the current offset from the connection, advancing the offset on success so the next call to a read method will produce the next message.

Because this method allocate memory buffers for the message key and value it is less memory-efficient than Read, but has the advantage of never failing with io.ErrShortBuffer.

While it is safe to call Read concurrently from multiple goroutines it may be hard for the program to predict the results as the connection offset will be read and written by multiple goroutines, they could read duplicates, or messages may be seen by only some of the goroutines.

This method is provided for convenience purposes but is much less efficient than using the more general purpose ReadBatch method.

func (*Conn) ReadOffset

func (c *Conn) ReadOffset(t time.Time) (int64, error)

ReadOffset returns the offset of the first message with a timestamp equal or greater to t.

func (*Conn) ReadOffsets

func (*Conn) ReadPartitions

func (c *Conn) ReadPartitions(topics ...string) (partitions []Partition, err error)

ReadPartitions returns the list of available partitions for the given list of topics.

If the method is called with no topic, it uses the topic configured on the connection. If there are none, the method fetches all partitions of the kafka cluster.

func (*Conn) RemoteAddr

func (c *Conn) RemoteAddr() net.Addr

RemoteAddr returns the remote network address.

func (*Conn) Seek

func (c *Conn) Seek(offset int64, whence int) (int64, error)

Seek sets the offset for the next read or write operation according to whence, which should be one of SeekStart, SeekAbsolute, SeekEnd, or SeekCurrent. When seeking relative to the end, the offset is subtracted from the current offset. Note that for historical reasons, these do not align with the usual whence constants as in lseek(2) or os.Seek. The method returns the new absolute offset of the connection.

func (*Conn) SetDeadline

func (c *Conn) SetDeadline(t time.Time) error

SetDeadline sets the read and write deadlines associated with the connection. It is equivalent to calling both SetReadDeadline and SetWriteDeadline.

A deadline is an absolute time after which I/O operations fail with a timeout (see type Error) instead of blocking. The deadline applies to all future and pending I/O, not just the immediately following call to Read or Write. After a deadline has been exceeded, the connection may be closed if it was found to be in an unrecoverable state.

A zero value for t means I/O operations will not time out.

func (*Conn) SetReadDeadline

func (c *Conn) SetReadDeadline(t time.Time) error

SetReadDeadline sets the deadline for future Read calls and any currently-blocked Read call. A zero value for t means Read will not time out.

func (*Conn) SetRequiredAcks

func (c *Conn) SetRequiredAcks(n int) error

SetRequiredAcks sets the number of acknowledges from replicas that the connection requests when producing messages.

func (*Conn) SetWriteDeadline

func (c *Conn) SetWriteDeadline(t time.Time) error

SetWriteDeadline sets the deadline for future Write calls and any currently-blocked Write call. Even if write times out, it may return n > 0, indicating that some of the data was successfully written. A zero value for t means Write will not time out.

func (*Conn) Write

func (c *Conn) Write(b []byte) (int, error)

Write writes a message to the kafka broker that this connection was established to. The method returns the number of bytes written, or an error if something went wrong.

The operation either succeeds or fail, it never partially writes the message.

This method is exposed to satisfy the net.Conn interface but is less efficient than the more general purpose WriteMessages method.

func (*Conn) WriteCompressedMessages added in v0.2.1

func (c *Conn) WriteCompressedMessages(codec CompressionCodec, msgs ...Message) (nbytes int, err error)

WriteCompressedMessages writes a batch of messages to the connection's topic and partition, returning the number of bytes written. The write is an atomic operation, it either fully succeeds or fails.

If the compression codec is not nil, the messages will be compressed.

func (*Conn) WriteCompressedMessagesAt added in v0.2.3

func (c *Conn) WriteCompressedMessagesAt(codec CompressionCodec, msgs ...Message) (nbytes int, partition int32, offset int64, appendTime time.Time, err error)

WriteCompressedMessagesAt writes a batch of messages to the connection's topic and partition, returning the number of bytes written, partition and offset numbers and timestamp assigned by the kafka broker to the message set. The write is an atomic operation, it either fully succeeds or fails.

If the compression codec is not nil, the messages will be compressed.

func (*Conn) WriteMessages

func (c *Conn) WriteMessages(msgs ...Message) (int, error)

WriteMessages writes a batch of messages to the connection's topic and partition, returning the number of bytes written. The write is an atomic operation, it either fully succeeds or fails.

type ConnConfig

type ConnConfig struct {
	ClientID  string
	Topic     string
	Partition int
	Broker    int
	Rack      string

	// The transactional id to use for transactional delivery. Idempotent
	// deliver should be enabled if transactional id is configured.
	// For more details look at transactional.id description here: http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#producerconfigs
	// Empty string means that this connection can't be transactional.
	TransactionalID string
}

ConnConfig is a configuration object used to create new instances of Conn.

type ConsumerGroup added in v0.3.1

type ConsumerGroup struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

ConsumerGroup models a Kafka consumer group. A caller doesn't interact with the group directly. Rather, they interact with a Generation. Every time a member enters or exits the group, it results in a new Generation. The Generation is where partition assignments and offset management occur. Callers will use Next to get a handle to the Generation.

func NewConsumerGroup added in v0.3.1

func NewConsumerGroup(config ConsumerGroupConfig) (*ConsumerGroup, error)

NewConsumerGroup creates a new ConsumerGroup. It returns an error if the provided configuration is invalid. It does not attempt to connect to the Kafka cluster. That happens asynchronously, and any errors will be reported by Next.

func (*ConsumerGroup) Close added in v0.3.1

func (cg *ConsumerGroup) Close() error

Close terminates the current generation by causing this member to leave and releases all local resources used to participate in the consumer group. Close will also end the current generation if it is still active.

func (*ConsumerGroup) Next added in v0.3.1

func (cg *ConsumerGroup) Next(ctx context.Context) (*Generation, error)

Next waits for the next consumer group generation. There will never be two active generations. Next will never return a new generation until the previous one has completed.

If there are errors setting up the next generation, they will be surfaced here.

If the ConsumerGroup has been closed, then Next will return ErrGroupClosed.

	ID string

	// The list of broker addresses used to connect to the kafka cluster.  It
	// must not be empty.

	// balancing strategies that will be offered to the coordinator.  The first
	// strategy that all group members support will be chosen by the leader.
	//
	// Default: [Range, RoundRobin]
	GroupBalancers []GroupBalancer

	// HeartbeatInterval sets the optional frequency at which the reader sends the consumer
	// group heartbeat update.
	//
	// Default: 3s
	HeartbeatInterval time.Duration

	// PartitionWatchInterval indicates how often a reader checks for partition changes.
	// If a reader sees a partition change (such as a partition add) it will rebalance the group
	// picking up new partitions.
	//
	// Default: 5s
	PartitionWatchInterval time.Duration

	// WatchForPartitionChanges is used to inform kafka-go that a consumer group should be
	// polling the brokers and rebalancing if any partition changes happen to the topic.
	WatchPartitionChanges bool

	// SessionTimeout optionally sets the length of time that may pass without a heartbeat
	// before the coordinator considers the consumer dead and initiates a rebalance.
	//
	// Default: 30s
	SessionTimeout time.Duration

	// RebalanceTimeout optionally sets the length of time the coordinator will wait
	// for members to join as part of a rebalance.  For kafka servers under higher
	// load, it may be useful to set this value higher.
	//
	// Default: 30s
	RebalanceTimeout time.Duration

	// JoinGroupBackoff optionally sets the length of time to wait before re-joining
	// the consumer group after an error.
	//
	// Default: 5s
	JoinGroupBackoff time.Duration

	// RetentionTime optionally sets the length of time the consumer group will
	// be saved by the broker.  -1 will disable the setting and leave the
	// retention up to the broker's offsets.retention.minutes property.  By
	// default, that setting is 1 day for kafka < 2.0 and 7 days for kafka >=
	// 2.0.
	//
	// Default: -1
	RetentionTime time.Duration

	// StartOffset determines from whence the consumer group should begin
	// consuming when it finds a partition without a committed offset.  If
	// non-zero, it must be set to one of FirstOffset or LastOffset.
	//
	// Default: FirstOffset
	StartOffset int64

	// If not nil, specifies a logger used to report internal changes within the
	// reader.
	Logger Logger

	// ErrorLogger is the logger used to report errors. If nil, the reader falls
	// back to using Logger instead.
	ErrorLogger Logger

	// Timeout is the network timeout used when communicating with the consumer
	// group coordinator.  This value should not be too small since errors
	// communicating with the broker will generally cause a consumer group
	// rebalance, and it's undesirable that a transient network error intoduce
	// that overhead.  Similarly, it should not be too large or the consumer
	// group may be slow to respond to the coordinator failing over to another
	// broker.
	//
	// Default: 5s
	Timeout time.Duration
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

ConsumerGroupConfig is a configuration object used to create new instances of ConsumerGroup.

	Throttle time.Duration

	// Mapping of topic names to errors that occurred while attempting to create
	// the topics.

	// The errors contain the kafka error code. Programs may use the standard
	// errors.Is function to test the error against kafka error codes.
	Errors map[string]error
}

	Addr net.Addr

	// List of topics to create and their configuration.
	Topics []TopicConfig

	// When set to true, topics are not created but the configuration is

	// This field will be ignored if the kafka broker did no support the
	// CreateTopics API in version 1 or above.
	ValidateOnly bool
}

	DialFunc func(ctx context.Context, network string, address string) (net.Conn, error)

	// Timeout is the maximum amount of time a dial will wait for a connect to
	// complete. If Deadline is also set, it may fail earlier.
	//
	// The default is no timeout.
	//
	// When dialing a name with multiple IP addresses, the timeout may be
	// divided between them.
	//
	// With or without a timeout, the operating system may impose its own
	// earlier timeout. For instance, TCP timeouts are often around 3 minutes.
	Timeout time.Duration

	// Deadline is the absolute point in time after which dials will fail.
	// If Timeout is set, it may fail earlier.
	// Zero means no deadline, or dependent on the operating system as with the
	// Timeout option.
	Deadline time.Time

	// LocalAddr is the local address to use when dialing an address.
	// The address must be of a compatible type for the network being dialed.
	// If nil, a local address is automatically chosen.
	LocalAddr net.Addr

	// DualStack enables RFC 6555-compliant "Happy Eyeballs" dialing when the

	// IPv6 addresses. This allows a client to tolerate networks where one
	// address family is silently broken.

	// fallback connection, when DualStack is enabled.
	// If zero, a default delay of 300ms is used.

The Dialer type mirrors the net.Dialer API but is designed to open kafka connections instead of raw network connections.

func (*Dialer) Dial

func (d *Dialer) Dial(network string, address string) (*Conn, error)

Dial connects to the address on the named network.

func (*Dialer) DialContext

func (d *Dialer) DialContext(ctx context.Context, network string, address string) (*Conn, error)

DialContext connects to the address on the named network using the provided context.

The provided Context must be non-nil. If the context expires before the connection is complete, an error is returned. Once successfully connected, any expiration of the context will not affect the connection.

When using TCP, and the host in the address parameter resolves to multiple network addresses, any dial timeout (from d.Timeout or ctx) is spread over each consecutive dial, such that each is given an appropriate fraction of the time to connect. For example, if a host has 4 IP addresses and the timeout is 1 minute, the connect to each single address will be given 15 seconds to complete before trying the next one.

func (*Dialer) DialLeader

func (d *Dialer) DialLeader(ctx context.Context, network string, address string, topic string, partition int) (*Conn, error)

DialLeader opens a connection to the leader of the partition for a given topic.

The address given to the DialContext method may not be the one that the connection will end up being established to, because the dialer will lookup the partition leader for the topic and return a connection to that server. The original address is only used as a mechanism to discover the configuration of the kafka cluster that we're connecting to.

func (*Dialer) DialPartition added in v0.2.1

func (d *Dialer) DialPartition(ctx context.Context, network string, address string, partition Partition) (*Conn, error)

Generation represents a single consumer group generation. The generation carries the topic+partition assignments for the given. It also provides facilities for committing offsets and for running functions whose lifecycles are bound to the generation.

func (*Generation) CommitOffsets added in v0.3.1

func (g *Generation) CommitOffsets(offsets map[string]map[int]int64) error

CommitOffsets commits the provided topic+partition+offset combos to the consumer group coordinator. This can be used to reset the consumer to explicit offsets.

func (*Generation) Start added in v0.3.1

func (g *Generation) Start(fn func(ctx context.Context))

Start launches the provided function in a go routine and adds accounting such that when the function exits, it stops the current generation (if not already in the process of doing so).

The provided function MUST support cancellation via the ctx argument and exit in a timely manner once the ctx is complete. When the context is closed, the context's Error() function will return ErrGenerationEnded.

When closing out a generation, the consumer group will wait for all functions launched by Start to exit before the group can move on and join the next generation. If the function does not exit promptly, it will stop forward progress for this consumer and potentially cause consumer group membership churn.

type Murmur2Balancer added in v0.3.1

type Murmur2Balancer struct {
	Consistent bool
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Murmur2Balancer is a Balancer that uses the Murmur2 hash function to determine which partition to route messages to. This ensures that messages with the same key are routed to the same partition. This balancer is compatible with the partitioner used by the Java library and by librdkafka's "murmur2" and "murmur2_random" partitioners. /

With the Consistent field false (default), this partitioner is equivalent to the "murmur2_random" setting in librdkafka. When Consistent is true, this partitioner is equivalent to the "murmur2" setting. The latter will hash nil keys into the same partition. Empty, non-nil keys are always hashed to the same partition regardless of configuration.

Unless you are absolutely certain that all your messages will have keys, it's best to leave the Consistent flag off. Otherwise, you run the risk of creating a very hot partition.

Note that the librdkafka documentation states that the "murmur2_random" is functionally equivalent to the default Java partitioner. That's because the Java partitioner will use a round robin balancer instead of random on nil keys. We choose librdkafka's implementation because it arguably has a larger install base.

type RackAffinityGroupBalancer added in v0.3.6

type RackAffinityGroupBalancer struct {
	// Rack is the name of the rack where this consumer is running.  It will be
	// communicated to the consumer group leader via the UserData so that
	// assignments can be made with affinity to the partition leader.
	Rack string
}

RackAffinityGroupBalancer makes a best effort to pair up consumers with partitions whose leader is in the same rack. This strategy can have performance benefits by minimizing round trip latency between the consumer and the broker. In environments where network traffic across racks incurs charges (such as cross AZ data transfer in AWS), this strategy is also a cost optimization measure because it keeps network traffic within the local rack where possible.

The primary objective is to spread partitions evenly across consumers with a secondary focus on maximizing the number of partitions where the leader and the consumer are in the same rack. For best affinity, it's recommended to have a balanced spread of consumers and partition leaders across racks.

This balancer requires Kafka version 0.10.0.0+ or later. Earlier versions do not return the brokers' racks in the metadata request.

	// infer the max wait from the connection's read deadline.
	MaxWait time.Duration
}

ReadBatchConfig is a configuration object used for reading batches of messages.

type Reader

type Reader struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Reader provides a high-level API for consuming messages from kafka.

A Reader automatically manages reconnections to a kafka server, and blocking methods have context support for asynchronous cancellations.

Note that it is important to call `Close()` on a `Reader` when a process exits. The kafka server needs a graceful disconnect to stop it from continuing to attempt to send messages to the connected clients. The given example will not call `Close()` if the process is terminated with SIGINT (ctrl-c at the shell) or SIGTERM (as docker stop or a kubernetes restart does). This can result in a delay when a new reader on the same topic connects (e.g. new process started or new container running). Use a `signal.Notify` handler to close the reader on process shutdown.

func NewReader

func NewReader(config ReaderConfig) *Reader

NewReader creates and returns a new Reader configured with config. The offset is initialized to FirstOffset.

func (*Reader) Close

func (r *Reader) Close() error

Close closes the stream, preventing the program from reading any more messages from it.

func (*Reader) CommitMessages

func (r *Reader) CommitMessages(ctx context.Context, msgs ...Message) error

CommitMessages commits the list of messages passed as argument. The program may pass a context to asynchronously cancel the commit operation when it was configured to be blocking.

func (*Reader) Config

func (r *Reader) Config() ReaderConfig

Config returns the reader's configuration.

func (*Reader) FetchMessage

func (r *Reader) FetchMessage(ctx context.Context) (Message, error)

FetchMessage reads and return the next message from the r. The method call blocks until a message becomes available, or an error occurs. The program may also specify a context to asynchronously cancel the blocking operation.

The method returns io.EOF to indicate that the reader has been closed.

FetchMessage does not commit offsets automatically when using consumer groups. Use CommitMessages to commit the offset.

func (*Reader) Lag

func (r *Reader) Lag() int64

Lag returns the lag of the last message returned by ReadMessage, or -1 if r is backed by a consumer group.

func (*Reader) Offset

func (r *Reader) Offset() int64

Offset returns the current absolute offset of the reader, or -1 if r is backed by a consumer group.

func (*Reader) ReadLag

func (r *Reader) ReadLag(ctx context.Context) (lag int64, err error)

ReadLag returns the current lag of the reader by fetching the last offset of the topic and partition and computing the difference between that value and the offset of the last message returned by ReadMessage.

This method is intended to be used in cases where a program may be unable to call ReadMessage to update the value returned by Lag, but still needs to get an up to date estimation of how far behind the reader is. For example when the consumer is not ready to process the next message.

The function returns a lag of zero when the reader's current offset is negative.

func (*Reader) ReadMessage

func (r *Reader) ReadMessage(ctx context.Context) (Message, error)

ReadMessage reads and return the next message from the r. The method call blocks until a message becomes available, or an error occurs. The program may also specify a context to asynchronously cancel the blocking operation.

The method returns io.EOF to indicate that the reader has been closed.

If consumer groups are used, ReadMessage will automatically commit the offset when called. Note that this could result in an offset being committed before the message is fully processed.

If more fine grained control of when offsets are committed is required, it is recommended to use FetchMessage with CommitMessages instead.

func (*Reader) SetOffset

func (r *Reader) SetOffset(offset int64) error

SetOffset changes the offset from which the next batch of messages will be read. The method fails with io.ErrClosedPipe if the reader has already been closed.

From version 0.2.0, FirstOffset and LastOffset can be used to indicate the first or last available offset in the partition. Please note while -1 and -2 were accepted to indicate the first or last offset in previous versions, the meanings of the numbers were swapped in 0.2.0 to match the meanings in other libraries and the Kafka protocol specification.

func (*Reader) SetOffsetAt added in v0.2.3

func (r *Reader) SetOffsetAt(ctx context.Context, t time.Time) error

SetOffsetAt changes the offset from which the next batch of messages will be read given the timestamp t.

The method fails if the unable to connect partition leader, or unable to read the offset given the ts, or if the reader has been closed.

func (*Reader) Stats

func (r *Reader) Stats() ReaderStats

Stats returns a snapshot of the reader stats since the last time the method was called, or since the reader was created if it is called for the first time.

A typical use of this method is to spawn a goroutine that will periodically call Stats on a kafka reader and report the metrics to a stats collection system.

	// An optional resolver used to translate broker host names into network
	// addresses.
	//
	// The resolver will be called for every request (not every connection),
	// making it possible to implement ACL policies by validating that the
	// program is allowed to connect to the kafka broker. This also means that
	// the resolver should probably provide a caching layer to avoid storming
	// the service discovery backend with requests.
	//
	// When set, the Dial function is not responsible for performing name
	// resolution, and is always called with a pre-resolved address.
	Resolver BrokerResolver

	// The background context used to control goroutines started internally by
	// the transport.
	//
	// If nil, context.Background() is used instead.
	Context context.Context

}

Transport is an implementation of the RoundTripper interface.

Transport values manage a pool of connections and automatically discovers the clusters layout to route requests to the appropriate brokers.

func (*Transport) CloseIdleConnections added in v0.4.0

func (t *Transport) CloseIdleConnections()

CloseIdleConnections closes all idle connections immediately, and marks all connections that are in use to be closed when they become idle again.

func (*Transport) RoundTrip added in v0.4.0

func (t *Transport) RoundTrip(ctx context.Context, addr net.Addr, req Request) (Response, error)

RoundTrip sends a request to a kafka cluster and returns the response, or an error if no responses were received.

Message types are available in sub-packages of the protocol package. Each kafka API is implemented in a different sub-package. For example, the request and response types for the Fetch API are available in the protocol/fetch package.

The type of the response message will match the type of the request. For exmple, if RoundTrip was called with a *fetch.Request as argument, the value returned will be of type *fetch.Response. It is safe for the program to do a type assertion after checking that no error was returned.

This example illustrates the way this method is expected to be used:

r, err := transport.RoundTrip(ctx, addr, &fetch.Request{ ... })
if err != nil {
	...
} else {
	res := r.(*fetch.Response)
	...
}

The transport automatically selects the highest version of the API that is supported by both the kafka-go package and the kafka broker. The negotiation happens transparently once when connections are established.

This API was introduced in version 0.4 as a way to leverage the lower-level features of the kafka protocol, but also provide a more efficient way of managing connections to kafka brokers.

type Version added in v0.4.0

type Version int16

Version represents a version number for kafka APIs.

func (Version) Marshal added in v0.4.0

func (Version) Unmarshal added in v0.4.0

func (n Version) Unmarshal(b []byte, v interface{}) error

Unmarshal is like the top-level Unmarshal function, but will only decode struct fields for which n falls within the min and max versions specified on the struct tag.

type WriteErrors added in v0.4.1

type WriteErrors []error

WriteError is returned by kafka.(*Writer).WriteMessages when the writer is not configured to write messages asynchronously. WriteError values contain a list of errors where each entry matches the position of a message in the WriteMessages call. The program can determine the status of each message by looping over the error:

switch err := w.WriteMessages(ctx, msgs...).(type) {
case nil:
case kafka.WriteErrors:
	for i := range msgs {
		if err[i] != nil {
			// handle the error writing msgs[i]
			...
		}
	}
default:
	// handle other errors
	...
}

}

The Writer type provides the implementation of a producer of kafka messages that automatically distributes messages across partitions of a single topic using a configurable balancing policy.

Writes manage the dispatch of messages across partitions of the topic they are configured to write to using a Balancer, and aggregate batches to optimize the writes to kafka.

Writers may be configured to be used synchronously or asynchronously. When use synchronously, calls to WriteMessages block until the messages have been written to kafka. In this mode, the program should inspect the error returned by the function and test if it an instance of kafka.WriteErrors in order to identify which messages have succeeded or failed, for example:

	// Construct a synchronous writer (the default mode).
	w := &kafka.Writer{
		Addr:         kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
		Topic:        "topic-A",
		RequiredAcks: kafka.RequireAll,
	}

	...

 // Passing a context can prevent the operation from blocking indefinitely.
	switch err := w.WriteMessages(ctx, msgs...).(type) {
	case nil:
	case kafka.WriteErrors:
		for i := range msgs {
			if err[i] != nil {
				// handle the error writing msgs[i]
				...
			}
		}
	default:
		// handle other errors
		...
	}

In asynchronous mode, the program may configure a completion handler on the writer to receive notifications of messages being written to kafka:

w := &kafka.Writer{
	Addr:         kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
	Topic:        "topic-A",
	RequiredAcks: kafka.RequireAll,
	Async:        true, // make the writer asynchronous
	Completion: func(messages []kafka.Message, err error) {
		...
	},
}

...

// Because the writer is asynchronous, there is no need for the context to
// be cancelled, the call will never block.
if err := w.WriteMessages(context.Background(), msgs...); err != nil {
	// Only validation errors would be reported in this case.
	...
}

Methods of Writer are safe to use concurrently from multiple goroutines, however the writer configuration should not be modified after first use.

Example
w := &kafka.Writer{
	Addr:  kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
	Topic: "Topic-1",
}

w.WriteMessages(context.Background(),
	kafka.Message{
		Key:   []byte("Key-A"),
		Value: []byte("Hello World!"),
	},
)

w.Close()
Output:

func NewWriter

func NewWriter(config WriterConfig) *Writer

NewWriter creates and returns a new Writer configured with config.

DEPRECATED: Writer value can be instantiated and configured directly, this function is retained for backward compatibility and will be removed in version 1.0.

func (*Writer) Close

func (w *Writer) Close() error

Close flushes pending writes, and waits for all writes to complete before returning. Calling Close also prevents new writes from being submitted to the writer, further calls to WriteMessages and the like will fail with io.ErrClosedPipe.

func (*Writer) Stats

func (w *Writer) Stats() WriterStats

Stats returns a snapshot of the writer stats since the last time the method was called, or since the writer was created if it is called for the first time.

A typical use of this method is to spawn a goroutine that will periodically call Stats on a kafka writer and report the metrics to a stats collection system.

func (*Writer) WriteMessages

func (w *Writer) WriteMessages(ctx context.Context, msgs ...Message) error

WriteMessages writes a batch of messages to the kafka topic configured on this writer.

Unless the writer was configured to write messages asynchronously, the method blocks until all messages have been written, or until the maximum number of attempts was reached.

When sending synchronously and the writer's batch size is configured to be greater than 1, this method blocks until either a full batch can be assembled or the batch timeout is reached. The batch size and timeouts are evaluated per partition, so the choice of Balancer can also influence the flushing behavior. For example, the Hash balancer will require on average N * batch size messages to trigger a flush where N is the number of partitions. The best way to achieve good batching behavior is to share one Writer amongst multiple go routines.

When the method returns an error, it may be of type kafka.WriteError to allow the caller to determine the status of each message.

The context passed as first argument may also be used to asynchronously cancel the operation. Note that in this case there are no guarantees made on whether messages were written to kafka. The program should assume that the whole batch failed and re-write the messages later (which could then cause duplicates).

WriterConfig is a configuration type used to create new instances of Writer.

DEPRECATED: writer values should be configured directly by assigning their exported fields. This type is kept for backward compatibility, and will be removed in version 1.0.

func (*WriterConfig) Validate added in v0.2.3

func (config *WriterConfig) Validate() error

Validate method validates WriterConfig properties.
