Process with Kafka

Description

A quickstart project that deals with traveller processing carried by rules. It illustrates how easy it is to make the Kogito processes and rules to work with Apache Kafka

This example shows

  • consuming events from a Kafka topic and for each event start new process instance
  • each process instance is expecting a traveller information in JSON format
  • traveller is then processed by rules and based on the outcome of the processing (processed or not) traveller is
    • if successfully processed traveller information is logged and then updated information is send to another Kafka topic
    • if not processed traveller info is logged and then process instance finishes without sending reply to Kafka topic

Infrastructure requirements

This quickstart requires an Apache Kafka to be available and by default expects it to be on default port and localhost.

  • Install and Startup Kafka Server / Zookeeper

https://kafka.apache.org/quickstart

Build and run

Prerequisites

You will need:

  • Java 11+ installed
  • Environment variable JAVA_HOME set accordingly
  • Maven 3.8.6+ installed

Compile and Run in Local Dev Mode

mvn clean compile spring-boot:run

Package and Run using uberjar

mvn clean package

To run the generated native executable, generated in target/, execute

java -jar target/process-kafka-quickstart-springboot.jar

OpenAPI (Swagger) documentation

Specification at swagger.io

You can take a look at the OpenAPI definition - automatically generated and included in this service - to determine all available operations exposed by this service. For easy readability you can visualize the OpenAPI definition file using a UI tool like for example available Swagger UI.

In addition, various clients to interact with this service can be easily generated using this OpenAPI definition.

Use the application

To make use of this application it is as simple as putting a message on travellers topic with following content

  • To examine ProcessedTravellers topic and verify upcoming messages will be processed

Execute in a separate terminal session

bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --topic processedtravellers
  • Send message that should be processed to Topic
bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic travellers

Content (cloud event format)

{
  "specversion": "1.0",
  "id": "21627e26-31eb-43e7-8343-92a696fd96b1",
  "source": "",
  "type": "travellers",
  "time": "2022-02-24T13:25:16Z",
  "data": {
	"firstName" : "Jan",
	"lastName" : "Kowalski",
	"email" : "[email protected]",
	"nationality" : "Polish"
	}
}

One liner

{"specversion": "1.0","id": "21627e26-31eb-43e7-8343-92a696fd96b1","source": "","type": "travellers", "time": "2022-02-24T13:25:16Z","data": { "firstName" : "Jan", "lastName" : "Kowalski", "email" : "[email protected]", "nationality" : "Polish"}}

this will then trigger the successful processing of the traveller and put another message on processedtravellers topic.

To take the other path of the process put following message on travellers topic

  • Send Message to Topic
bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic travellers

With the following content (Cloud Event Format)

{
  "specversion": "1.0",
  "id": "31627e26-31eb-43e7-8343-92a696fd96b1",
  "source": "",
  "type": "travellers",
  "time": "2022-02-24T13:25:16Z",
  "data": {
	"firstName" : "John",
	"lastName" : "Doe",
    "email" : "[email protected]",
    "nationality" : "American"
	}
}

One Liner

{"specversion": "1.0","id": "31627e26-31eb-43e7-8343-92a696fd96b1","source": "","type": "travellers", "time": "2022-02-24T13:25:16Z","data": { "firstName" : "John", "lastName" : "Doe", "email" : "[email protected]", "nationality" : "American"}}

this will not result in message being send to processedtravelers topic.
