Chapter 5. Kafka breaking changes

download PDF

This section describes any changes to Kafka that required a corresponding change to AMQ Streams to continue to work.

5.1. Using Kafka’s example file connectors

Kafka no longer includes the example file connectors FileStreamSourceConnector and FileStreamSinkConnector in its CLASSPATH and plugin.path by default. AMQ Streams has been updated so that you can still use these example connectors. The examples now have to be added to the plugin path like any connector.

Two example connector configuration files are provided:

  • examples/connect/kafka-connect-build.yaml provides a Kafka Connect build configuration, which you can deploy to build a new Kafka Connect image with the file connectors.
  • examples/connect/source-connector.yaml provides the configuration required to deploy the file connectors as KafkaConnector resources.

See Deploying example KafkaConnector resources and Extending Kafka Connect with connector plugins.
