Apache Kafka

Lean how to use the Jikkou Extension Provider for Apache Kafka.

Here, you will find information to use the Apache Kafka extensions.

More information:

1 - Configuration

Learn how to configure the extensions for Apache Kafka.

Here, you will find the list of resources supported for Apache Kafka.

Configuration

The Apache Kafka extension is built on top of the Kafka Admin Client. You can configure the properties to be passed to kafka client through the Jikkou client configuration property jikkou.kafka.client.

Example:

jikkou {
  kafka {
    client {
      bootstrap.servers = "localhost:9092"
      security.protocol = "SSL"
      ssl.keystore.location = "/tmp/client.keystore.p12"
      ssl.keystore.password = "password"
      ssl.keystore.type = "PKCS12"
      ssl.truststore.location = "/tmp/client.truststore.jks"
      ssl.truststore.password = "password"
      ssl.key.password = "password"
    }
  }
}

In addition, the extension support configuration settings to wait for at least a minimal number of brokers before processing.

jikkou {
  kafka {
    brokers {
      # If 'True' 
      waitForEnabled = true
      waitForEnabled = ${?JIKKOU_KAFKA_BROKERS_WAIT_FOR_ENABLED}
      # The minimal number of brokers that should be alive for the CLI stops waiting.
      waitForMinAvailable = 1
      waitForMinAvailable = ${?JIKKOU_KAFKA_BROKERS_WAIT_FOR_MIN_AVAILABLE}
      # The amount of time to wait before verifying that brokers are available.
      waitForRetryBackoffMs = 1000
      waitForRetryBackoffMs = ${?JIKKOU_KAFKA_BROKERS_WAIT_FOR_RETRY_BACKOFF_MS}
      # Wait until brokers are available or this timeout is reached.
      waitForTimeoutMs = 60000
      waitForTimeoutMs = ${?JIKKOU_KAFKA_BROKERS_WAIT_FOR_TIMEOUT_MS}
    }
  }
}

2.3 - Kafka Topics

Learn how to manage Kafka Topics.

KafkaTopic resources are used to define the topics you want to manage on your Kafka Cluster(s). A KafkaTopic resource defines the number of partitions, the replication factor, and the configuration properties to be associated to a topics.

KafkaTopic

Specification

Here is the resource definition file for defining a KafkaTopic.

apiVersion: "kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta2"  # The api version (required)
kind: "KafkaTopic"                     # The resource kind (required)
metadata:
  name: <The name of the topic>        # (required)
  labels: { }
  annotations: { }
spec:
  partitions: <Number of partitions>   # (optional)
  replicas: <Number of replicas>       # (optional)
  configs:
    <config_key>: <Config Value>       # The topic config properties keyed by name to override (optional)
  configMapRefs: [ ]                   # The list of ConfigMap to be applied to this topic (optional)

The metadata.name property is mandatory and specifies the name of the kafka topic.

To use the cluster default values for the number of partitions and replicas you can set the property spec.partitions and spec.replicas to -1.

Example

Here is a simple example that shows how to define a single YAML file containing two topic definition using the KafkaTopic resource type.

file: kafka-topics.yaml

---
apiVersion: "kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta2"
kind: KafkaTopic
metadata:
  name: 'my-topic-p1-r1'  # Name of the topic
  labels:
    environment: example
spec:
  partitions: 1           # Number of topic partitions (use -1 to use cluster default)
  replicas: 1             # Replication factor per partition (use -1 to use cluster default)
  configs:
    min.insync.replicas: 1
    cleanup.policy: 'delete'
---
apiVersion: "kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta2"
kind: KafkaTopic
metadata:
  name: 'my-topic-p2-r1'   # Name of the topic 
  labels:
    environment: example
spec:
  partitions: 2             # Number of topic partitions (use -1 to use cluster default)
  replicas: 1               # Replication factor per partition (use -1 to use cluster default)
  configs:
    min.insync.replicas: 1
    cleanup.policy: 'delete'

See official Apache Kafka documentation for details about the topic-level configs.

KafkaTopicList

If you need to define multiple topics (e.g. using a template), it may be easier to use a KafkaTopicList resource.

Specification

Here the resource definition file for defining a KafkaTopicList.

apiVersion: "kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta2"  # The api version (required)
kind: "KafkaTopicList"                 # The resource kind (required)
metadata: # (optional)
  labels: { }
  annotations: { }
items: [ ]                             # An array of KafkaTopic

Example

Here is a simple example that shows how to define a single YAML file containing two topic definitions using the KafkaTopicList resource type. In addition, the example uses a ConfigMap object to define the topic configuration only once.

file: kafka-topics.yaml

---
apiVersion: "kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta2"
kind: KafkaTopicList
metadata:
  labels:
    environment: example
items:
  - metadata:
      name: 'my-topic-p1-r1'
    spec:
      partitions: 1
      replicas: 1
      configMapRefs: [ "TopicConfig" ]

  - metadata:
      name: 'my-topic-p2-r1'
    spec:
      partitions: 2
      replicas: 1
      configMapRefs: [ "TopicConfig" ]
---
apiVersion: "core.jikkou.io/v1beta2"
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: 'TopicConfig'
data:
  min.insync.replicas: 1
  cleanup.policy: 'delete'

  • USERS_DEFAULT: Set default quotas for all users.
  • USER: Set quotas for a specific user principal.
  • USER_CLIENT: Set quotas for a specific user principal and a specific client-id.
  • USER_ALL_CLIENTS: Set default quotas for a specific user and all clients.
  • CLIENT: Set default quotas for a specific client.
  • CLIENTS_DEFAULT: Set default quotas for all clients.

Example

Here is a simple example that shows how to define a single YAML file containing two quota definitions using the KafkaClientQuota resource type.

file: kafka-quotas.yaml

---
apiVersion: 'kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta2'
kind: 'KafkaClientQuota'
metadata:
  labels: { }
  annotations: { }
spec:
  type: 'CLIENT'
  entity:
    clientId: 'my-client'
  configs:
    requestPercentage: 10
    producerByteRate: 1024
    consumerByteRate: 1024
---
apiVersion: 'kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta2'
kind: 'KafkaClientQuota'
metadata:
  labels: { }
  annotations: { }
spec:
  type: 'USER'
  entity:
    user: 'my-user'
  configs:
    requestPercentage: 10
    producerByteRate: 1024
    consumerByteRate: 1024

KafkaClientQuotaList

If you need to define multiple topics (e.g. using a template), it may be easier to use a KafkaClientQuotaList resource.

Specification

Here the resource definition file for defining a KafkaTopicList.

apiVersion: "kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta2"  # The api version (required)
kind: "KafkaClientQuotaList"           # The resource kind (required)
metadata: # (optional)
  name: <The name of the topic>
  labels: { }
  annotations: { }
items: [ ]                              # An array of KafkaClientQuota

Example

Here is a simple example that shows how to define a single YAML file containing two KafkaClientQuota definition using the KafkaClientQuotaList resource type.

apiVersion: 'kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta2'
kind: 'KafkaClientQuotaList'
metadata:
  labels: { }
  annotations: { }
items:
  - spec:
    type: 'CLIENT'
    entity:
      clientId: 'my-client'
    configs:
      requestPercentage: 10
      producerByteRate: 1024
      consumerByteRate: 1024

  - spec:
      type: 'USER'
      entity:
        user: 'my-user'
      configs:
        requestPercentage: 10
        producerByteRate: 1024
        consumerByteRate: 1024

2.7 - Kafka Table Records

Learn how to manage a KTable Topic Records

A KafkaTableRecord resource can be used to produce a key/value record into a given compacted topic, i.e., a topic with cleanup.policy=compact (a.k.a. KTable).

KafkaTableRecord

Specification

Here is the resource definition file for defining a KafkaTableRecord.

apiVersion: "kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta1" # The api version (required)
kind: "KafkaTableRecord"              # The resource kind (required)
metadata:
  labels: { }
  annotations: { }
spec:
  type: <string>      # The topic name (required)        
  headers: # The list of headers
    - name: <string>
      value: <string>
  key: # The record-key (required)
    type: <string>                   # The record-key type. Must be one of: BINARY, STRING, JSON (required)
    data: # The record-key in JSON serialized form.
      $ref: <url or path>            # Or an url to a local file containing the JSON string value.
  value: # The record-value (required)
    type: <string>                   # The record-value type. Must be one of: BINARY, STRING, JSON (required)
    data: # The record-value in JSON serialized form.
      $ref: <url or path>            # Or an url to a local file containing the JSON string value.

Usage

The KafkaTableRecord resource has been designed primarily to manage reference data published and shared via Kafka. Therefore, it is highly recommended to use this resource only with compacted Kafka topics containing a small amount of data.

Examples

Here are some examples that show how to a KafkaTableRecord using the different supported data type.

STRING:

---
apiVersion: "kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta1"
kind: "KafkaTableRecord"
spec:
  topic: "my-topic"
  headers:
    - name: "content-type"
      value: "application/text"
  key:
    type: STRING
    data: |
      "bar"      
  value:
    type: STRING
    data: |
      "foo"      

JSON:

---
apiVersion: "kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta1"
kind: "KafkaTableRecord"
spec:
  topic: "my-topic"
  headers:
    - name: "content-type"
      value: "application/text"
  key:
    type: STRING
    data: |
      "bar"      
  value:
    type: JSON
    data: |
      {
        "foo": "bar"
      }      

BINARY:

---
apiVersion: "kafka.jikkou.io/v1beta1"
kind: "KafkaTableRecord"
spec:
  topic: "my-topic"
  headers:
    - name: "content-type"
      value: "application/text"
  key:
    type: STRING
    data: |
      "bar"      
  value:
    type: BINARY
    data: |
      "eyJmb28iOiAiYmFyIn0K"

7 - Compatibility

Compatibility for Apache Kafka.

The Apache Kafka extension for Jikkou utilizes the Kafka Admin Client which is compatible with any Kafka infrastructure, such as :

  • Aiven
  • Apache Kafka
  • Confluent Cloud
  • MSK
  • Redpanda
  • etc.

In addition, Kafka Protocol has a “bidirectional” client compatibility policy. In other words, new clients can talk to old servers, and old clients can talk to new servers.
