Looking for the plugin's configuration parameters? You can find them in the Kafka Log configuration reference doc.
Publish request and response logs to an Apache Kafka topic. For more information, see Kafka topics.
Kong also provides a Kafka plugin for request transformations. See Kafka Upstream.
Note: This plugin has the following limitations:
- Message compression is not supported.
- The message format is not customizable.
Quickstart
The following guidelines assume that both Kong Gateway Enterprise and Kafka
have been
installed on your local machine.
Note: We use
zookeeper
in the following example, which is not required or has been removed on some Kafka versions. Refer to the Kafka ZooKeeper documentation for more information.
-
Create a
kong-log
topic in your Kafka cluster:${KAFKA_HOME}/bin/kafka-topics.sh --create \ --zookeeper localhost:2181 \ --replication-factor 1 \ --partitions 10 \ --topic kong-log
-
Add the
kafka-log
plugin globally:curl -X POST http://localhost:8001/plugins \ --data "name=kafka-log" \ --data "config.bootstrap_servers[1].host=localhost" \ --data "config.bootstrap_servers[1].port=9092" \ --data "config.topic=kong-log"
-
Make sample requests:
for i in {1..50} ; do curl http://localhost:8000/request/$i ; done
-
Verify the contents of the Kafka
kong-log
topic:${KAFKA_HOME}/bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh \ --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 \ --topic kong-log \ --partition 0 \ --from-beginning \ --timeout-ms 1000
Log format
Note: If the
max_batch_size
argument > 1, a request is logged as an array of JSON objects.
Every request is logged separately in a JSON object, separated by a new line \n
, with the following format:

Implementation details
This plugin uses the lua-resty-kafka client.
When encoding request bodies, several things happen:
- For requests with a content-type header of
application/x-www-form-urlencoded
,multipart/form-data
, orapplication/json
, this plugin passes the raw request body in thebody
attribute, and tries to return a parsed version of those arguments inbody_args
. If this parsing fails, an error message is returned and the message is not sent. - If the
content-type
is nottext/plain
,text/html
,application/xml
,text/xml
, orapplication/soap+xml
, then the body will be base64-encoded to ensure that the message can be sent as JSON. In such a case, the message has an extra attribute calledbody_base64
set totrue
.
TLS
Enable TLS by setting config.security.ssl
to true
.
mTLS
Enable mTLS by setting a valid UUID of a certificate in config.security.certificate_id
.
Note that this option needs config.security.ssl
set to true.
See Certificate Object
in the Admin API documentation for information on how to set up Certificates.
SASL Authentication
This plugin supports the following authentication mechanisms:
-
PLAIN: Enable this mechanism by setting
config.authentication.mechanism
toPLAIN
. You also need to provide a username and password with the config optionsconfig.authentication.user
andconfig.authentication.password
respectively. -
SCRAM: In cryptography, the Salted Challenge Response Authentication Mechanism (SCRAM) is a family of modern, password-based challenge–response authentication mechanisms providing authentication of a user to a server. The Kafka Log plugin supports the following:
-
SCRAM-SHA-256: Enable this mechanism by setting
config.authentication.mechanism
toSCRAM-SHA-256
. You also need to provide a username and password with the config optionsconfig.authentication.user
andconfig.authentication.password
respectively. -
SCRAM-SHA-512: Enable this mechanism by setting
config.authentication.mechanism
toSCRAM-SHA-512
. You also need to provide a username and password with the config optionsconfig.authentication.user
andconfig.authentication.password
respectively.
-
-
Delegation Tokens: Delegation Tokens can be generated in Kafka and then used to authenticate this plugin.
Delegation Tokens
leverage theSCRAM-SHA-256
authentication mechanism. ThetokenID
is provided with theconfig.authentication.user
field and thetoken-hmac
is provided with theconfig.authentication.password
field. To indicate that a token is used you have to set theconfig.authentication.tokenauth
setting totrue
.Read more on how to create, renew, and revoke delegation tokens.
