Name

lua-resty-kafka - Lua kafka client driver for the ngx_lua based on the cosocket API

Table of Contents

Status

This library is still under early development and is still experimental.

Description

This Lua library is a Kafka client driver for the ngx_lua nginx module:

http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule

This Lua library takes advantage of ngx_lua's cosocket API, which ensures 100% nonblocking behavior.

Note that at least ngx_lua 0.9.3 or openresty 1.4.3.7 is required, and unfortunately only LuaJIT supported (--with-luajit).

Note for ssl connections at least ngx_lua 0.9.11 or openresty 1.7.4.1 is required, and unfortunately only LuaJIT supported (--with-luajit).

Synopsis

    lua_package_path "/path/to/lua-resty-kafka/lib/?.lua;;";

    server {
        location /test {

                    {
                        host = "127.0.0.1",
                        port = 9092,

                -- usually we do not use this library directly
                local cli = client:new(broker_list)
                local brokers, partitions = cli:fetch_metadata("test")
                if not brokers then
                    ngx.say("fetch_metadata failed, err:", partitions)
                end

                end
                ngx.say("send success, offset: ", tonumber(offset))

                -- this is async producer_type and bp will be reused in the whole nginx worker
                local bp = producer:new(broker_list, { producer_type = "async" })

                local ok, err = bp:send("test", key, message)

                    return
                end

                ngx.say("send success, ok:", ok)
            ';

Modules

resty.kafka.client

To load this module, just do this

    local client = require "resty.kafka.client"

Back to TOC

Methods

new

syntax: c = client:new(broker_list, client_config)

The broker_list is a list of broker, like the below

[
    {
        "host": "127.0.0.1",
        "port": 9092,

        // optional auth
        "sasl_config": {
            "mechanism": "PLAIN",
            "user": "USERNAME",
            "password": "PASSWORD"
        }
    }
]

An optional client_config table can be specified. The following options are as follows:

client config

  • socket_timeout

    Specifies the network timeout threshold in milliseconds. SHOULD lagrer than the request_timeout.

  • keepalive_timeout

    Specifies the maximal idle timeout (in milliseconds) for the keepalive connection.

  • keepalive_size

    Specifies the maximal number of connections allowed in the connection pool for per Nginx worker.

  • refresh_interval

    Specifies the time to auto refresh the metadata in milliseconds. Then metadata will not auto refresh if is nil.

  • ssl

    Specifies if client should use ssl connection. Defaults to false. See: https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module#tcpsocksslhandshake

  • ssl_verify

    Specifies if client should perform SSL verification. Defaults to false. See: https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module#tcpsocksslhandshake

Back to TOC

fetch_metadata

syntax: brokers, partitions = c:fetch_metadata(topic)

In case of success, return the all brokers and partitions of the topic. In case of errors, returns nil with a string describing the error.

Back to TOC

refresh

syntax: brokers, partitions = c:refresh()

This will refresh the metadata of all topics which have been fetched by fetch_metadata. In case of success, return all brokers and all partitions of all topics. In case of errors, returns nil with a string describing the error.

Back to TOC

resty.kafka.producer

To load this module, just do this

    local producer = require "resty.kafka.producer"

Back to TOC

Methods

new

syntax: p = producer:new(broker_list, producer_config?, cluster_name?)

It's recommend to use async producer_type.

broker_list is the same as in client

An optional options table can be specified. The following options are as follows:

socket_timeout, keepalive_timeout, keepalive_size, refresh_interval, ssl, ssl_verify are the same as in client_config

producer config, most like in http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#producerconfigs

  • producer_type

    Specifies the producer.type. "async" or "sync"

  • request_timeout

    Specifies the request.timeout.ms. Default 2000 ms

  • required_acks

    Specifies the request.required.acks, SHOULD NOT be zero. Default 1.

  • max_retry

    Specifies the message.send.max.retries. Default 3.

  • retry_backoff

    Specifies the retry.backoff.ms. Default 100.

  • api_version

    Specifies the produce API version. Default 0. If you use Kafka 0.10.0.0 or higher, api_version can use 0, 1 or 2. If you use Kafka 0.9.x, api_version should be 0 or 1. If you use Kafka 0.8.x, api_version should be 0.

  • partitioner

    Specifies the partitioner that choose partition from key and partition num. syntax: partitioner = function (key, partition_num, correlation_id) end, the correlation_id is an auto increment id in producer. Default partitioner is:

    local function default_partitioner(key, num, correlation_id)
        local id = key and crc32(key) or correlation_id
        -- partition_id is continuous and start from 0
        return id % num
    end

buffer config ( only work producer_type = "async" )

  • flush_time

    Specifies the queue.buffering.max.ms. Default 1000.

  • batch_num

    Specifies the batch.num.messages. Default 200.

  • batch_size

    Specifies the send.buffer.bytes. Default 1M(may reach 2M). Be careful, SHOULD be smaller than the socket.request.max.bytes / 2 - 10k config in kafka server.

  • max_buffering

    Specifies the queue.buffering.max.messages. Default 50,000.

  • error_handle

    Specifies the error handle, handle data when buffer send to kafka error. syntax: error_handle = function (topic, partition_id, message_queue, index, err, retryable) end, the failed messages in the message_queue is like { key1, msg1, key2, msg2 } , key in the message_queue is empty string "" even if orign is nil. index is the message_queue length, should not use #message_queue. when retryable is true that means kafka server surely not committed this messages, you can safely retry to send; and else means maybe, recommend to log to somewhere.

Not support compression now.

The third optional cluster_name specifies the name of the cluster, default 1 (yeah, it's number). You can Specifies different names when you have two or more kafka clusters. And this only works with async producer_type.

Back to TOC

send

syntax: ok, err = p:send(topic, key, message)

  1. In sync model

    In case of success, returns the offset (** cdata: LL **) of the current broker and partition. In case of errors, returns nil with a string describing the error.

  2. In async model

    The message will write to the buffer first. It will send to the kafka server when the buffer exceed the batch_num, or every flush_time flush the buffer.

    It case of success, returns true. In case of errors, returns nil with a string describing the error (buffer overflow).

Back to TOC

offset

syntax: sum, details = p:offset()

Return the sum of all the topic-partition offset (return by the ProduceRequest api);
and the details of each topic-partition

Back to TOC

flush

syntax: ok = p:flush()

Always return true.

Installation

You need to configure the lua_package_path directive to add the path of your lua-resty-kafka source tree to ngx_lua's LUA_PATH search path, as in

    # nginx.conf
    http {
        lua_package_path "/path/to/lua-resty-kafka/lib/?.lua;;";
        ...
    }

Ensure that the system account running your Nginx ''worker'' proceses have enough permission to read the .lua file.
