Fields

kafka

Sorry! This field is missing documentation.

Type: object

kafka.seed_brokers

A list of broker addresses to connect to in order to establish connections. If an item of the list contains commas it will be expanded into multiple addresses.

Type: array

# Examples
seed_brokers:
- localhost:9092
seed_brokers:
- foo:9092
- bar:9092
seed_brokers:
- foo:9092,bar:9092

kafka.tls

Custom TLS settings can be used to override system defaults.

Type: object

kafka.tls.enabled

Whether custom TLS settings are enabled.

Type: bool

Default: false

kafka.tls.skip_cert_verify

Whether to skip server side certificate verification.

Type: bool

Default: false

kafka.tls.enable_renegotiation

Whether to allow the remote server to repeatedly request renegotiation. Enable this option if you’re seeing the error message local error: tls: no renegotiation.

Type: bool

Default: false Requires version 3.45.0 or newer

kafka.tls.root_cas

An optional root certificate authority to use. This is a string, representing a certificate chain from the parent trusted root certificate, to possible intermediate signing certificates, to the host certificate.

Type: string

Default: ""

# Examples
root_cas: |-
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
...
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

kafka.tls.root_cas_file

An optional path of a root certificate authority file to use. This is a file, often with a .pem extension, containing a certificate chain from the parent trusted root certificate, to possible intermediate signing certificates, to the host certificate.

Type: string

Default: ""

# Examples
root_cas_file: ./root_cas.pem

kafka.tls.client_certs

A list of client certificates to use. For each certificate either the fields cert and key, or cert_file and key_file should be specified, but not both.

Type: array

Default: []

# Examples
client_certs:
- cert: foo
key: bar
client_certs:
- cert_file: ./example.pem
key_file: ./example.key

kafka.tls.client_certs[].cert

A plain text certificate to use.

Type: string

Default: ""

kafka.tls.client_certs[].key

A plain text certificate key to use.

Type: string

Default: ""

kafka.tls.client_certs[].cert_file

The path of a certificate to use.

Type: string

Default: ""

kafka.tls.client_certs[].key_file

The path of a certificate key to use.

Type: string

Default: ""

kafka.tls.client_certs[].password

A plain text password for when the private key is password encrypted in PKCS#1 or PKCS#8 format. The obsolete pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC algorithm is not supported for the PKCS#8 format.

Because the obsolete pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC algorithm does not authenticate the ciphertext, it is vulnerable to padding oracle attacks that can let an attacker recover the plaintext.

Type: string

Default: ""

# Examples
password: foo
password: ${KEY_PASSWORD}

kafka.topics

A list of topics to consume from. Multiple comma separated topics can be listed in a single element. When a consumer_group is specified partitions are automatically distributed across consumers of a topic, otherwise all partitions are consumed.

Alternatively, it’s possible to specify explicit partitions to consume from with a colon after the topic name, e.g. foo:0 would consume the partition 0 of the topic foo. This syntax supports ranges, e.g. foo:0-10 would consume partitions 0 through to 10 inclusive.

Finally, it’s also possible to specify an explicit offset to consume from by adding another colon after the partition, e.g. foo:0:10 would consume the partition 0 of the topic foo starting from the offset 10. If the offset is not present (or remains unspecified) then the field start_from_oldest determines which offset to start from.

Type: array

# Examples
topics:
- foo
- bar
topics:
- things.*
topics:
- foo,bar
topics:
- foo:0
- bar:1
- bar:3
topics:
- foo:0,bar:1,bar:3
topics:
- foo:0-5

kafka.regexp_topics

Whether listed topics should be interpreted as regular expression patterns for matching multiple topics. When topics are specified with explicit partitions this field must remain set to false.

Type: bool

Default: false

kafka.rack_id

A rack specifies where the client is physically located and changes fetch requests to consume from the closest replica as opposed to the leader replica.

Type: string

Default: ""

kafka.instance_id

When using a consumer group, an instance ID specifies the groups static membership, which can prevent rebalances during reconnects. When using a instance ID the client does NOT leave the group when closing. To actually leave the group one must use an external admin command to leave the group on behalf of this instance ID. This ID must be unique per consumer within the group.

Type: string

Default: ""

kafka.rebalance_timeout

When using a consumer group, rebalance_timeout sets how long group members are allowed to take when a rebalance has begun. This timeout is how long all members are allowed to complete work and commit offsets, minus the time it took to detect the rebalance (from a heartbeat).

Type: string

Default: "45s"

kafka.session_timeout

When using a consumer group, session_timeout sets how long a member in hte group can go between heartbeats. If a member does not heartbeat in this timeout, the broker will remove the member from the group and initiate a rebalance.

Type: string

Default: "1m"

kafka.heartbeat_interval

When using a consumer group, heartbeat_interval sets how long a group member goes between heartbeats to Kafka. Kafka uses heartbeats to ensure that a group member’s sesion stays active. This value should be no higher than 1/3rd of the session_timeout. This is equivalent to the Java heartbeat.interval.ms setting.

Type: string

Default: "3s"

kafka.start_offset

Sets the offset to start consuming from, or if OffsetOutOfRange is seen while fetching, to restart consuming from.

Type: string

Default: "earliest"

OptionSummary
committedPrevents consuming a partition in a group if the partition has no prior commits. Corresponds to Kafka’s auto.offset.reset=none option
earliestStart from the earliest offset. Corresponds to Kafka’s auto.offset.reset=earliest option.
latestStart from the latest offset. Corresponds to Kafka’s auto.offset.reset=latest option.

kafka.fetch_max_bytes

Sets the maximum amount of bytes a broker will try to send during a fetch. Note that brokers may not obey this limit if it has records larger than this limit. This is the equivalent to the Java fetch.max.bytes setting.

Type: string

Default: "50MiB"

kafka.fetch_max_wait

Sets the maximum amount of time a broker will wait for a fetch response to hit the minimum number of required bytes. This is the equivalent to the Java fetch.max.wait.ms setting.

Type: string

Default: "5s"

kafka.fetch_min_bytes

Sets the minimum amount of bytes a broker will try to send during a fetch. This is the equivalent to the Java fetch.min.bytes setting.

Type: string

Default: "1B"

kafka.fetch_max_partition_bytes

Sets the maximum amount of bytes that will be consumed for a single partition in a fetch request. Note that if a single batch is larger than this number, that batch will still be returned so the client can make progress. This is the equivalent to the Java fetch.max.partition.bytes setting.

Type: string

Default: "1MiB"

kafka.transaction_isolation_level

The transaction isolation level

Type: string

Default: "read_uncommitted"

OptionSummary
read_committedIf set, only committed transactional records are processed.
read_uncommittedIf set, then uncommitted records are processed.

kafka.consumer_group

An optional consumer group to consume as. When specified the partitions of specified topics are automatically distributed across consumers sharing a consumer group, and partition offsets are automatically committed and resumed under this name. Consumer groups are not supported when specifying explicit partitions to consume from in the topics field.

Type: string

kafka.checkpoint_limit

Determines how many messages of the same partition can be processed in parallel before applying back pressure. When a message of a given offset is delivered to the output the offset is only allowed to be committed when all messages of prior offsets have also been delivered, this ensures at-least-once delivery guarantees. However, this mechanism also increases the likelihood of duplicates in the event of crashes or server faults, reducing the checkpoint limit will mitigate this.

Type: int

Default: 1024

kafka.commit_period

The period of time between each commit of the current partition offsets. Offsets are always committed during shutdown.

Type: string

Default: "5s"

kafka.multi_header

Decode headers into lists to allow handling of multiple values with the same key

Type: bool

Default: false

kafka.batching

Allows you to configure a batching policy that applies to individual topic partitions in order to batch messages together before flushing them for processing. Batching can be beneficial for performance as well as useful for windowed processing, and doing so this way preserves the ordering of topic partitions.

Type: object

# Examples
batching:
byte_size: 5000
count: 0
period: 1s
batching:
count: 10
period: 1s
batching:
check: this.contains("END BATCH")
count: 0
period: 1m

kafka.batching.count

A number of messages at which the batch should be flushed. If 0 disables count based batching.

Type: int

Default: 0

kafka.batching.byte_size

An amount of bytes at which the batch should be flushed. If 0 disables size based batching.

Type: int

Default: 0

kafka.batching.period

A period in which an incomplete batch should be flushed regardless of its size.

Type: string

Default: ""

# Examples
period: 1s
period: 1m
period: 500ms

kafka.batching.check

A Bloblang query that should return a boolean value indicating whether a message should end a batch.

Type: string

Default: ""

# Examples
check: this.type == "end_of_transaction"

kafka.batching.processors

A list of processors to apply to a batch as it is flushed. This allows you to aggregate and archive the batch however you see fit. Please note that all resulting messages are flushed as a single batch, therefore splitting the batch into smaller batches using these processors is a no-op.

Type: array

# Examples
processors:
- archive:
format: concatenate
processors:
- archive:
format: lines
processors:
- archive:
format: json_array

kafka.topic_lag_refresh_period

The period of time between each topic lag refresh cycle.
