Kafka Threadpool for Rust with mTLS Support
An async rust threadpool for publishing messages to kafka using SSL (mTLS) or PLAINTEXT protocols.
Architecture
This is a work in progress. The architecture will likely change over time. For now here's the latest reference architecture:
Background
Please refer to the blog post for more information on this repo.
Configuration
Supported Environment Variables
| Environment Variable Name | Purpose / Value |
|---|---|
| KAFKA_ENABLED | toggle the kafka_threadpool on with: true or 1 anything else disables the threadpool |
| KAFKA_LOG_LABEL | tracking label that shows up in all crate logs |
| KAFKA_BROKERS | comma-delimited list of brokers (host1:port,host2:port,host3:port) |
| KAFKA_TOPICS | comma-delimited list of supported topics |
| KAFKA_PUBLISH_RETRY_INTERVAL_SEC | number of seconds to sleep before each publish retry |
| KAFKA_PUBLISH_IDLE_INTERVAL_SEC | number of seconds to sleep if there are no message to process |
| KAFKA_NUM_THREADS | number of threads for the threadpool |
| KAFKA_TLS_CLIENT_KEY | optional - path to the kafka mTLS key |
| KAFKA_TLS_CLIENT_CERT | optional - path to the kafka mTLS certificate |
| KAFKA_TLS_CLIENT_CA | optional - path to the kafka mTLS certificate authority (CA) |
| KAFKA_METADATA_COUNT_MSG_OFFSETS | optional - set to anything but true to bypass counting the offsets |
Getting Started
Please ensure your kafka cluster is running before starting. If you need help running a kafka cluster please refer to the rust-with-strimzi-kafka-tls repo for more details.
Set up the Environment Variables
You can create an ./env/kafka.env file storing the environment variables to make your producer and consumer consistent (and ready for podman/docker or kubernetes):
export KAFKA_ENABLED=1
export KAFKA_LOG_LABEL="ktp"
export KAFKA_BROKERS="host1:port,host2:port,host3:port"
export KAFKA_TOPICS="testing"
export KAFKA_PUBLISH_RETRY_INTERVAL_SEC="1.0"
export KAFKA_NUM_THREADS="5"
export KAFKA_TLS_CLIENT_CA="PATH_TO_TLS_CA_FILE"
export KAFKA_TLS_CLIENT_CERT="PATH_TO_TLS_CERT_FILE"
export KAFKA_TLS_CLIENT_KEY="PATH_TO_TLS_KEY_FILE"
export KAFKA_METADATA_COUNT_MSG_OFFSETS="true"
Load the Environment
source ./env/kafka.env
Start the Kafka Threadpool and Publish 100 Messages
The included ./examples/start-threadpool.rs example will connect to the kafka cluster based off the environment configuration and publish 100 messages into the kafka testing topic.
cargo build --example start-threadpool
export RUST_BACKTRACE=1
export RUST_LOG=info,kafka_threadpool=info,rdkafka=info
./target/debug/examples/start-threadpool
Consume Messages
To consume the newly-published test messages from the testing topic, you can use your own consumer or the rust-with-strimzi-kafka-and-tls/examples/run-consumer.rs example:
# from the rust-with-strimzi-kafka-and-tls directory:
cargo build --example run-consumer
export RUST_BACKTRACE=1
export RUST_LOG=info,rdkafka=info
./target/debug/examples/run-consumer -g rust-consumer-testing -t testing
Get Kafka Cluster Metadata for All Topics, Partitions, ISR, and Offsets
Run the ./examples/get-all-metadata.rs example:
cargo build --example get-all-metadata
export RUST_BACKTRACE=1
export RUST_LOG=info,kafka_threadpool=info,rdkafka=info
./target/debug/examples/get-all-metadata
Get Kafka Cluster Metadata for a Single Topic including Partitions, ISR and Offsets
-
Set the Topic Name as an Environment Variable
export KAFKA_TOPIC=testing -
Run the ./examples/get-metadata-for-topic.rs example:
cargo build --example get-metadata-for-topic export RUST_BACKTRACE=1 export RUST_LOG=info,kafka_threadpool=info,rdkafka=info ./target/debug/examples/get-metadata-for-topic
