Chapter 3. Starting the services

download PDF

Using Debezium requires AMQ Streams with Kafka and Kafka Connect, a database, and the Debezium connector service. To run the services for this tutorial, you must:

3.1. Deploying a MySQL database

Deploy a MySQL database server that includes an example inventory database that includes several tables that are pre-populated with data. The Debezium MySQL connector will capture changes that occur in the sample tables and transmit the change event records to an Apache Kafka topic.

Procedure

  1. Start a MySQL database by running the following command, which starts a MySQL database server configured with an example inventory database:

    $ oc new-app -l app=mysql --name=mysql quay.io/debezium/example-mysql:latest
  2. Configure credentials for the MySQL database by running the following command, which updates the deployment configuration for the MySQL database to add the user name and password:

    $ oc set env deployment/mysql MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=debezium MYSQL_USER=mysqluser MYSQL_PASSWORD=mysqlpw
  3. Verify that the MySQL database is running by invoking the following command, which is followed by the output that shows that the MySQL database is running, and that the pod is ready:

    $ oc get pods -l app=mysql
    NAME            READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
    mysql-1-2gzx5   1/1     Running   1          23s
  4. Open a new terminal and log into the sample inventory database.

    This command opens a MySQL command line client in the pod that is running the MySQL database. The client uses the user name and password that you previously configured:

    $ oc exec mysql-1-2gzx5 -it -- mysql -u mysqluser -pmysqlpw inventory
    mysql: [Warning] Using a password on the command line interface can be insecure.
    Reading table information for completion of table and column names
    You can turn off this feature to get a quicker startup with -A
    
    Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.

    mysql>
  5. List the tables in the inventory database:

    mysql> show tables;
    +---------------------+
    | Tables_in_inventory |
    +---------------------+
    | addresses           |
    | customers           |
    | geom                |
    | orders              |
    | products            |
    | products_on_hand    |
    +---------------------+
    6 rows in set (0.00 sec)
  6. Explore the database and view the data that it contains, for example, view the customers table:

    mysql> select * from customers;
    +------+------------+-----------+-----------------------+
    | id   | first_name | last_name | email                 |
    +------+------------+-----------+-----------------------+
    | 1001 | Sally      | Thomas    | sally.thomas@acme.com |
    | 1002 | George     | Bailey    | gbailey@foobar.com    |
    | 1003 | Edward     | Walker    | ed@walker.com         |
    | 1004 | Anne       | Kretchmar | annek@noanswer.org    |
    +------+------------+-----------+-----------------------+
    4 rows in set (0.00 sec)

3.2. Deploying Kafka Connect

After you deploy the MySQL database, use AMQ Streams to build a Kafka Connect container image that includes the Debezium MySQL connector plug-in. During the deployment process, you create and use the following custom resources (CRs):

  • A KafkaConnect CR that defines your Kafka Connect instance and includes information about the MySQL connector artifacts to include in the image.
  • A KafkaConnector CR that provides details that include information that the MySQL connector uses to access the source database. After AMQ Streams starts the Kafka Connect pod, you start the connector by applying the KafkaConnector CR.

During the build process, the AMQ Streams Operator transforms input parameters in the KafkaConnect custom resource, including Debezium connector definitions, into a Kafka Connect container image. The build downloads the necessary artifacts from the Red Hat Maven repository, and incorporates them into the image. The newly created container is pushed to the container registry that is specified in .spec.build.output, and is used to deploy a Kafka Connect pod.

Container images can be stored in an external container registry, such as quay.io, or in an OpenShift ImageStream. Because ImageStreams are not created automatically, to store container images in an ImageStream, you must create the ImageStream before you deploy Kafka Connect.

After AMQ Streams builds and stores the Kafka Connect image, use the KafkaConnector custom resource to start the connector.

Prerequisites

Procedure

  1. Log in to the OpenShift cluster and create or open a project, for example debezium.
  2. Create a Debezium KafkaConnect custom resource (CR) for the connector, or modify an existing one.
    The following example shows an excerpt from a dbz-connect.yaml file that describes a KafkaConnect custom resource.
    The metadata.annotations and spec.build properties are required.

    Example 3.1. A dbz-connect.yaml file that defines a KafkaConnect custom resource that includes a Debezium connector

    apiVersion: kafka.strimzi.io/v1beta2
    kind: KafkaConnect
    metadata:
      name: my-connect-cluster
      annotations:
        strimzi.io/use-connector-resources: "true" 1
    spec:
      replicas: 1
      version: 3.6.0
      build: 2
        output: 3
          type: imagestream  4
          image: debezium-streams-connect:latest
        plugins: 5
          - name: debezium-connector-mysql
            artifacts:
              - type: zip 6
                url: https://maven.repository.redhat.com/ga/io/debezium/debezium-connector-mysql/2.5.4.Final-redhat-00001/debezium-connector-mysql-2.5.4.Final-redhat-00001-plugin.zip 7
      bootstrapServers: my-cluster-kafka-bootstrap:9093
    
    ...
    Table 3.1. Descriptions of Kafka Connect configuration settings
    ItemDescription

    1

    Sets the strimzi.io/use-connector-resources annotation to "true" to enable the Cluster Operator to use KafkaConnector resources to configure connectors in this Kafka Connect cluster.

    2

    The spec.build configuration specifies where to store the build image and lists the plug-ins to include in the image, along with the location of the plug-in artifacts.

    3

    The build.output specifies the registry in which the newly built image is stored.

    4

    Specifies the name and image name for the image output. Valid values for output.type are docker to push into a container registry like Docker Hub or Quay, or imagestream to push the image to an internal OpenShift ImageStream. To use an ImageStream, an ImageStream resource must be deployed to the cluster. For more information about specifying the build.output in the KafkaConnect configuration, see the AMQ Streams Build schema reference documentation.

    5

    The plugins configuration lists all of the connectors that you want to include in the Kafka Connect image. For each entry in the list, specify a plug-in name, and information for about the artifacts that are required to build the connector. Optionally, for each connector plug-in, you can include other components that you want to be available for use with the connector. For example, you can add Service Registry artifacts, or the Debezium scripting component.

    6

    The value of artifacts.type specifies the file type of the artifact specified in the artifacts.url. Valid types are zip, tgz, or jar. Debezium connector archives are provided in .zip file format. JDBC driver files are in .jar format. The type value must match the type of the file that is referenced in the url field.

    7

    The value of artifacts.url specifies the address of an HTTP server, such as a Maven repository, that stores the file for the connector artifact. The OpenShift cluster must have access to the specified server.

  3. Apply the KafkaConnect build specification to the OpenShift cluster by entering the following command:

    oc create -f dbz-connect.yaml

    Based on the configuration specified in the custom resource, the AMQ Streams Operator prepares a Kafka Connect image to deploy.
    After the build completes, the Operator pushes the image to the specified registry or ImageStream, and starts the Kafka Connect cluster. The connector artifacts that you listed in the configuration are available in the cluster.

  4. Create a KafkaConnector resource to define an instance of the MySQL connector.
    For example, create the following KafkaConnector CR, and save it as debezium-inventory-connector.yaml

    Example 3.2. A mysql-inventory-connector.yaml file that defines the KafkaConnector custom resource for a Debezium connector

    apiVersion: kafka.strimzi.io/v1beta2
    kind: KafkaConnector
    metadata:
      labels:
        strimzi.io/cluster: my-connect-cluster
      name: inventory-connector 1
    spec:
      class: io.debezium.connector.mysql.MySqlConnector 2
      tasksMax: 1  3
      config:  4
        database.hostname: mysql 5
        database.port: 3306   6
        database.user: debezium  7
        database.password: dbz  8
        database.server.id: 184054
        topic.prefix: dbserver1  9
        table.include.list: inventory.*  10
        schema.history.internal.kafka.bootstrap.servers: 'my-cluster-kafka-bootstrap:9092' 11
        schema.history.internal.kafka.topic: schema-changes.inventory 12
    Table 3.2. Descriptions of connector configuration settings
    ItemDescription

    1

    The name of the connector to register with the Kafka Connect cluster.

    2

    The name of the connector class.

    3

    Only one task should operate at any one time. Use a single connector task to ensure proper order and event handling as the MySQL connector reads the MySQL server’s binlog. The Kafka Connect service uses connectors to start one or more tasks to complete the work. It automatically distributes the running tasks across the cluster of Kafka Connect services. If services stop or crash, tasks are redistributed to running services.

    4

    The connector’s configuration.

    5

    The hostname or address of the MySQL database instance.

    6

    The port number of the database instance.

    7

    The name of the user account through which Debezium connects to the database.

    8

    The password that Debezium uses to connect to the database user account.

    9

    Topic prefix for the MySQL server or cluster. This string prefixes the names of every Kafka topic that the connector sends event records to.

    10

    The list of tables from which the connector captures change events. The connector detects changes only if they occur in the inventory table.

    11

    List of Kafka brokers that the connector uses to write and recover DDL statements to the database schema history topic. This is the same broker that the connector sends change event records to. After a restart, the connector recovers the database schemas that existed at the point in the binlog when the connector resumes reading.

    12

    Name of the database schema history topic. This topic is for internal use only and should not be used by consumers.

  5. Create the connector resource by running the following command:

    oc create -n <namespace> -f <kafkaConnector>.yaml

    For example,

    oc create -n debezium -f mysql-inventory-connector.yaml

    The connector is registered to the Kafka Connect cluster and starts to run against the database that is specified by spec.config.database.dbname in the KafkaConnector CR. After the connector pod is ready, Debezium is running.

You are now ready to verify that the connector was created and has started to capture changes in the inventory database.

3.3. Example: A simple OpenShift ImageStream object definition

The following example shows a simple ImageStream object definition

apiVersion: image.openshift.io/v1
kind: ImageStream
metadata:
  name: kafka-connect-dbz-mysql
spec:
  lookupPolicy:
    local: true

Additional resources:

3.4. Verifying the connector deployment

If the connector starts correctly without errors, it creates a topic for each table that the connector is configured to capture. Downstream applications can subscribe to these topics to retrieve information events that occur in the source database.

To verify that the connector is running, you perform the following operations from the OpenShift Container Platform web console, or through the OpenShift CLI tool (oc):

  • Verify the connector status.
  • Verify that the connector generates topics.
  • Verify that topics are populated with events for read operations ("op":"r") that the connector generates during the initial snapshot of each table.

Prerequisites

  • A Debezium connector is deployed to AMQ Streams on OpenShift.
  • The OpenShift oc CLI client is installed.
  • You have access to the OpenShift Container Platform web console.

Procedure

  1. Check the status of the KafkaConnector resource by using one of the following methods:

    • From the OpenShift Container Platform web console:

      1. Navigate to Home Search.
      2. On the Search page, click Resources to open the Select Resource box, and then type KafkaConnector.
      3. From the KafkaConnectors list, click the name of the connector that you want to check, for example inventory-connector.
      4. In the Conditions section, verify that the values in the Type and Status columns are set to Ready and True.
    • From a terminal window:

      1. Enter the following command:

        oc describe KafkaConnector <connector-name> -n <project>

        For example,

        oc describe KafkaConnector inventory-connector -n debezium

        The command returns status information that is similar to the following output:

        Example 3.3. KafkaConnector resource status

        Name:         inventory-connector
        Namespace:    debezium

            dbserver1.inventory.customers
            dbserver1.inventory.geom
            dbserver1.inventory.orders
            dbserver1.inventory.products
            dbserver1.inventory.products_on_hand
        Events:  <none>
  2. Verify that the connector created Kafka topics:

    • From the OpenShift Container Platform web console.

      1. Navigate to Home Search.
      2. On the Search page, click Resources to open the Select Resource box, and then type KafkaTopic.
      3. From the KafkaTopics list, click the name of the topic that you want to check, for example, dbserver1.inventory.orders---ac5e98ac6a5d91e04d8ec0dc9078a1ece439081d.
      4. In the Conditions section, verify that the values in the Type and Status columns are set to Ready and True.
    • From a terminal window:

      1. Enter the following command:

        oc get kafkatopics

        The command returns status information that is similar to the following output:

        Example 3.4. KafkaTopic resource status

        NAME                   CLUSTER  PARTITIONS  REPLICATION FACTOR  READY
        connect-cluster-configs  my-cluster   1        1            True

        schema-changes.inventory my-cluster    1           1       True
        strimzi-store-topic---effb8e3e057afce1ecf67c3f5d8e4e3ff177fc55                  my-cluster   1    1  True
        strimzi-topic-operator-kstreams-topic-store-changelog---b75e702040b99be8a9263134de3507fc0cc4017b my-cluster 1    1  True
  3. Check topic content.

    • From a terminal window, enter the following command:
    oc exec -n <project>  -it <kafka-cluster> -- /opt/kafka/bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh \
    >     --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 \
    >     --from-beginning \
    >     --property print.key=true \
    >     --topic=<topic-name>

    For example,

     oc exec -n debezium  -it my-cluster-kafka-0 -- /opt/kafka/bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh \
    >     --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 \
    >     --from-beginning \
    >     --property print.key=true \
    >     --topic=dbserver1.inventory.products_on_hand

    The format for specifying the topic name is the same as the oc describe command returns in Step 1, for example, dbserver1.inventory.addresses.

    For each event in the topic, the command returns information that is similar to the following output:

    Example 3.5. Content of a Debezium change event

    {"schema":{"type":"struct","fields":[{"type":"int32","optional":false,"field":"product_id"}],"optional":false,"name":"dbserver1.inventory.products_on_hand.Key"},"payload":{"product_id":101}}	{"schema":{"type":"struct","fields":[{"type":"struct","fields":[{"type":"int32","optional":false,"field":"product_id"},{"type":"int32","optional":false,"field":"quantity"}],"optional":true,"name":"dbserver1.inventory.products_on_hand.Value","field":"before"},{"type":"struct","fields":[{"type":"int32","optional":false,"field":"product_id"},{"type":"int32","optional":false,"field":"quantity"}],"optional":true,"name":"dbserver1.inventory.products_on_hand.Value","field":"after"},{"type":"struct","fields":[{"type":"string","optional":false,"field":"version"},{"type":"string","optional":false,"field":"connector"},{"type":"string","optional":false,"field":"name"},{"type":"int64","optional":false,"field":"ts_ms"},{"type":"string","optional":true,"name":"io.debezium.data.Enum","version":1,"parameters":{"allowed":"true,last,false"},"default":"false","field":"snapshot"},{"type":"string","optional":false,"field":"db"},{"type":"string","optional":true,"field":"sequence"},{"type":"string","optional":true,"field":"table"},{"type":"int64","optional":false,"field":"server_id"},{"type":"string","optional":true,"field":"gtid"},{"type":"string","optional":false,"field":"file"},{"type":"int64","optional":false,"field":"pos"},{"type":"int32","optional":false,"field":"row"},{"type":"int64","optional":true,"field":"thread"},{"type":"string","optional":true,"field":"query"}],"optional":false,"name":"io.debezium.connector.mysql.Source","field":"source"},{"type":"string","optional":false,"field":"op"},{"type":"int64","optional":true,"field":"ts_ms"},{"type":"struct","fields":[{"type":"string","optional":false,"field":"id"},{"type":"int64","optional":false,"field":"total_order"},{"type":"int64","optional":false,"field":"data_collection_order"}],"optional":true,"field":"transaction"}],"optional":false,"name":"dbserver1.inventory.products_on_hand.Envelope"},"payload":{"before":null,"after":{"product_id":101,"quantity":3},"source":{"version":"2.5.4.Final-redhat-00001","connector":"mysql","name":"dbserver1","ts_ms":1638985247805,"snapshot":"true","db":"inventory","sequence":null,"table":"products_on_hand","server_id":0,"gtid":null,"file":"mysql-bin.000003","pos":156,"row":0,"thread":null,"query":null},"op":"r","ts_ms":1638985247805,"transaction":null}}

    In the preceding example, the payload value shows that the connector snapshot generated a read ("op" ="r") event from the table dbserver1.products_on_hand. The "before" state of the product_id record is null, indicating that no previous value exists for the record. The "after" state shows a quantity of 3 for the item with product_id 101.

You are now ready to view change events that the Debezium connector captures from the inventory database.
