Kafka Upstream - Plugin - v3.3.x

古いプラグインバージョンのドキュメントを閲覧しています。

Looking for the plugin's configuration parameters? You can find them in the Kafka Upstream configuration reference doc.

This plugin transforms requests into Kafka messages in an Apache Kafka topic. For more information, see Kafka topics.

Kong also provides a Kafka Log plugin for publishing logs to a Kafka topic. See Kafka Log.

Enable on a service-less route

    --data "config.bootstrap_servers[1].host=localhost" \

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, or application/json, this plugin passes the raw request body in the body attribute, and tries to return a parsed version of those arguments in body_args. If this parsing fails, an error message is returned and the message is not sent.
If the content-type is not text/plain, text/html, application/xml, text/xml, or application/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 called body_base64 set to true.

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

To use SASL authentication, set the configuration option config.authentication.strategy to sasl.

Make sure that these mechanism are enabled on the Kafka side as well.

This plugin supports the following authentication mechanisms:

PLAIN: Enable this mechanism by setting config.authentication.mechanism to PLAIN. You also need to provide a username and password with the config options config.authentication.user and config.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 Upstream plugin supports the following:
- SCRAM-SHA-256: Enable this mechanism by setting config.authentication.mechanism to SCRAM-SHA-256. You also need to provide a username and password with the config options config.authentication.user and config.authentication.password respectively.
- SCRAM-SHA-512: Enable this mechanism by setting config.authentication.mechanism to SCRAM-SHA-512. You also need to provide a username and password with the config options config.authentication.user and config.authentication.password respectively.
Delegation Tokens: Delegation Tokens can be generated in Kafka and then used to authenticate this plugin. Delegation Tokens leverage the SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication mechanism. The tokenID is provided with the config.authentication.user field and the token-hmac is provided with the config.authentication.password field. To indicate that a token is used you have to set the config.authentication.tokenauth setting to true.

Read more on how to create, renew, and revoke delegation tokens.

Known issues and limitations

Known limitations:

Message compression is not supported.
The message format is not customizable.

Quickstart

The following steps assume that Kong Gateway is installed and the Kafka Upstream plugin is enabled.

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-upstream topic in your Kafka cluster:

 ${KAFKA_HOME}/bin/kafka-topics.sh --create \
     --zookeeper localhost:2181 \
     --replication-factor 1 \
     --partitions 10 \
     --topic kong-upstream

Create a Service-less Route, and add the kafka-upstream plugin to it:

 curl -X POST http://localhost:8001/routes \
     --data "name=kafka-upstream" \
     --data "hosts[]=kafka-upstream.dev"

 curl -X POST http://localhost:8001/routes/kafka-upstream/plugins \
     --data "name=kafka-upstream" \
     --data "config.bootstrap_servers[1].host=localhost" \
     --data "config.bootstrap_servers[1].port=9092" \
     --data "config.topic=kong-upstream"

In a different console, start a Kafka consumer:

 ${KAFKA_HOME}/bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh \
     --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 \
     --topic kong-upstream \
     --partition 0 \
     --from-beginning \
     --timeout-ms 1000

Make sample requests:
```
 curl -X POST http://localhost:8000 --header 'Host: kafka-upstream.dev' foo=bar
```
You should receive a 200 { message: "message sent" } response, and should see the request bodies appear on the Kafka consumer console you started in the previous step.
