Debezium source connector

The Debezium source connector pulls messages from MySQL or PostgreSQL and persists the messages to Pulsar topics.

Configuration​

The configuration of Debezium source connector has the following properties.

NameRequiredDefaultDescription
task.classtruenullA source task class that implemented in Debezium.
database.hostnametruenullThe address of a database server.
database.porttruenullThe port number of a database server.
database.usertruenullThe name of a database user that has the required privileges.
database.passwordtruenullThe password for a database user that has the required privileges.
database.server.idtruenullThe connector’s identifier that must be unique within a database cluster and similar to the database’s server-id configuration property.
database.server.nametruenullThe logical name of a database server/cluster, which forms a namespace and it is used in all the names of Kafka topics to which the connector writes, the Kafka Connect schema names, and the namespaces of the corresponding Avro schema when the Avro Connector is used.
database.whitelistfalsenullA list of all databases hosted by this server which is monitored by the connector.

This is optional, and there are other properties for listing databases and tables to include or exclude from monitoring.
key.convertertruenullThe converter provided by Kafka Connect to convert record key.
value.convertertruenullThe converter provided by Kafka Connect to convert record value.
database.historytruenullThe name of the database history class.
database.history.pulsar.topictruenullThe name of the database history topic where the connector writes and recovers DDL statements.

Note: this topic is for internal use only and should not be used by consumers.
database.history.pulsar.service.urltruenullPulsar cluster service URL for history topic.
pulsar.service.urltruenullPulsar cluster service URL.
offset.storage.topictruenullRecord the last committed offsets that the connector successfully completes.
json-with-envelopefalsefalsePresent the message only consist of payload.

Converter Options​

  1. org.apache.kafka.connect.json.JsonConverter

This config json-with-envelope is valid only for the JsonConverter. It's default value is false, the consumer use the schema Schema.KeyValue(Schema.AUTO_CONSUME(), Schema.AUTO_CONSUME(), KeyValueEncodingType.SEPARATED), and the message only consist of payload.

If the config json-with-envelope value is true, the consumer use the schema Schema.KeyValue(Schema.BYTES, Schema.BYTES, the message consist of schema and payload.

  1. org.apache.pulsar.kafka.shade.io.confluent.connect.avro.AvroConverter

If users select the AvroConverter, then the pulsar consumer should use the schema Schema.KeyValue(Schema.AUTO_CONSUME(), Schema.AUTO_CONSUME(), KeyValueEncodingType.SEPARATED), and the message consist of payload.

MongoDB Configuration​

NameRequiredDefaultDescription
mongodb.hoststruenullThe comma-separated list of hostname and port pairs (in the form 'host' or 'host:port') of the MongoDB servers in the replica set. The list contains a single hostname and a port pair. If mongodb.members.auto.discover is set to false, the host and port pair are prefixed with the replica set name (e.g., rs0/localhost:27017).
mongodb.nametruenullA unique name that identifies the connector and/or MongoDB replica set or shared cluster that this connector monitors. Each server should be monitored by at most one Debezium connector, since this server name prefixes all persisted Kafka topics emanating from the MongoDB replica set or cluster.
mongodb.usertruenullName of the database user to be used when connecting to MongoDB. This is required only when MongoDB is configured to use authentication.
mongodb.passwordtruenullPassword to be used when connecting to MongoDB. This is required only when MongoDB is configured to use authentication.
mongodb.task.idtruenullThe taskId of the MongoDB connector that attempts to use a separate task for each replica set.

  4. Subscribe the topic sub-products for the table inventory.products.


    $ bin/pulsar-client consume -s "sub-products" public/default/dbserver1.inventory.products -n 0

  5. Start a MySQL client in docker.


    $ docker run -it --rm \
    --name mysqlterm \
    --link mysql \
    --rm mysql:5.7 sh \
    -c 'exec mysql -h"$MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_ADDR" -P"$MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_PORT" -uroot -p"$MYSQL_ENV_MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD"'

  6. A MySQL client pops out.

    Change the connection mode to mysql_native_password.

    mysql> show variables like "caching_sha2_password_auto_generate_rsa_keys";
    +----------------------------------------------+-------+
    | Variable_name                                | Value |
    +----------------------------------------------+-------+
    | caching_sha2_password_auto_generate_rsa_keys | ON    |
    +----------------------------------------------+-------+

    # If the value of "caching_sha2_password_auto_generate_rsa_keys" is ON, ensure the plugin of mysql.user is "mysql_native_password".
    mysql> SELECT Host, User, plugin from mysql.user where user={user};
    +-----------+------+-----------------------+
    | Host      | User | plugin                |
    +-----------+------+-----------------------+
    | localhost | root | caching_sha2_password |
    +-----------+------+-----------------------+

    # If the plugin of mysql.user is is "caching_sha2_password", set it to "mysql_native_password".
    alter user '{user}'@'{host}' identified with mysql_native_password by {password};

    # Check the plugin of mysql.user.
    mysql> SELECT Host, User, plugin from mysql.user where user={user};
    +-----------+------+-----------------------+
    | Host      | User | plugin                |
    +-----------+------+-----------------------+
    | localhost | root | mysql_native_password |
    +-----------+------+-----------------------+

    Use the following commands to change the data of the table products.


    mysql> use inventory;
    mysql> show tables;
    mysql> SELECT * FROM  products;
    mysql> UPDATE products SET name='1111111111' WHERE id=101;
    mysql> UPDATE products SET name='1111111111' WHERE id=107;

    In the terminal window of subscribing topic, you can find the data changes have been kept in the sub-products topic.

Example of PostgreSQL​

You need to create a configuration file before using the Pulsar Debezium connector.

Configuration​

You can use one of the following methods to create a configuration file.
