Introduction
Kafka Connect allows you to continuously ingest data from external systems into Kafka via connect sources and write data from Kafka to external system via connect sinks.
Various plugins are available for a variety of different data sources and data sinks.
Single Message Transformations (SMTs) are applied to messages as they flow through Connect.
Connect Demo
Postgres JDBC Sink Connector (Confluent)
Prepare the connector image
Download the JDBC sink connector from JDBC Connector (Source and Sink)
Create a docker file for this connector
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
FROM quay.io/strimzi/kafka:0.32.0-kafka-3.3.1 USER root:root RUN mkdir -p /opt/kafka/plugins/jdbc COPY ./confluentinc-kafka-connect-jdbc-10.6.0.zip /opt/kafka/plugins/j dbc/ RUN unzip /opt/kafka/plugins/jdbc/confluentinc-kafka-connect-jdbc-10.6.0.zip -d /opt/kafka/plugins/jdbc RUN rm /opt/kafka/plugins/jdbc/confluentinc-kafka-connect-jdbc-10.6.0.zip USER 1001 |
Build the image and copy it to your docker repository
docker build -f Dockerfile . t ktimoney/strimzi connector
Prepare the postges database
Setup a new username/password and schema for Kafka connect to write to
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
SELECT 'CREATE DATABASE kafka'
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT FROM pg_database WHERE datname = 'kafka')\gexec
DO $$
BEGIN
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT FROM pg_user WHERE usename = 'kafka') THEN
CREATE USER kafka WITH PASSWORD 'kafka';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE kafka TO kafka;
END IF;
END
$$; |
...
The database connection details are also included.
Influxdb Sink Connector (Apache Camel)
Prepare the connector image
Download the Influxdb connector: wget https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/apache/camel/kafkaconnector/camel-influxdb-kafka-connector/0.8.0/camel-influxdb-kafka-connector-0.8.0-package.tar.gz
Create a docker file for this connector
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|

FROM quay.io/strimzi/kafka:0.22.1-kafka-2.7.0 USER root:root RUN mkdir -p /opt/kafka/plugins/camel COPY ./camel-influxdb-kafka-connector-0.8.0-package.tar.gz /opt/kafka/plugins/camel/ RUN tar -xvzf /opt/kafka/plugins/camel/camel-influxdb-kafka-connector-0.8.0-package.tar.gz --directory /opt/kafka/plugins/camel RUN rm /opt/kafka/plugins/camel/camel-influxdb-kafka-connector-0.8.0-package.tar.gz USER 1001 |
Build the image and copy it to your docker repository
docker build -f Dockerfile . t ktimoney/strimzi_influxdb_connector
Prepare the message producer

Minio Sink Connector (Apache Camel)
Prepare the connector image
Download the minio sink connector: wget https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/apache/camel/kafkaconnector/camel-file-kafka-connector/3.20.0/camel-file-kafka-connector-3.20.0-package.tar.gz
We need to create some custom classes:
CamelMinioConverters.java - this will allow us to deserialize to json and convert the hashmap to an inputstream
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
package com.custom.convert.minio;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonProcessingException;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.util.Map;
import org.apache.camel.Converter;
@Converter(generateLoader = true)
public final class CamelMinioConverters {
private CamelMinioConverters() {
}
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@Converter
public static InputStream fromMapToInputStream(Map<String, Object> map) {
String json = "{}";
try {
json = new ObjectMapper().writeValueAsString(map);
} catch (JsonProcessingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return new ByteArrayInputStream(json.getBytes());
}
} |
...
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
package com.custom.aggregate.minio;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import org.apache.camel.AggregationStrategy;
import org.apache.camel.Exchange;
import org.apache.camel.Message;
public class StringAggregator implements AggregationStrategy {
//@Override
public Exchange aggregate(Exchange oldExchange, Exchange newExchange) {
Message newIn = newExchange.getIn();
Map<String, String> keyMap = (HashMap) newIn.getHeaders().get("camel.kafka.connector.record.key");
String key = keyMap.get("id");
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("ddMMyy-hhmmss-SSS");
String fileName = "ExchangeKafka-" + key + "-" + sdf.format( new Date() );
newIn.setHeader("file", fileName);
// lets append the old body to the new body
if (oldExchange == null) {
return newExchange;
}
String body = oldExchange.getIn().getBody(String.class);
if (body != null) {
String newBody = newIn.getBody(String.class);
if (newBody != null) {
body += System.lineSeparator() + newBody;
}
newIn.setBody(body);
}
return newExchange;
}
} |
We can then create a custom jar for our code and copy it into the docker container.
