npm install --save kafka-streams

const {KafkaStreams} = require("kafka-streams");

const config = require("./config.json");
const factory = new KafkaStreams(config);

const kstream = factory.getKStream("input-topic");
const ktable = factory.getKTable(/* .. */);

kstream.merge(ktable).filter(/* .. */).map(/* .. */).reduce(/* .. */).to("output-topic");

Prerequisites

• Kafka broker should be version >= 0.11.x
• Node.js should be version >= 8.x.x

A note on native mode

If you are using the native mode (config: { noptions: {} }). You will have to manually install node-rdkafka alongside kafka-streams. (This requires a Node.js version between 9 and 12 and will not work with Node.js >= 13, last tested with 12.16.1)

On Mac OS High Sierra / Mojave: CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib yarn add --frozen-lockfile node-rdkafka@2.7.4

Otherwise: yarn add --frozen-lockfile node-rdkafka@2.7.4

(Please also note: Doing this with npm does not work, it will remove your deps, npm i -g yarn)

Aim of this Library

• this is not a 1:1 port of the official JAVA kafka-streams
• the goal of this project is to give at least the same options to a nodejs developer that kafka-streams provides for JVM developers
• stream-state processing, table representation, joins, aggregate etc. I am aiming for the easiest api access possible checkout the word count example

Description

kafka-streams 🐙 equivalent for nodejs ✨🐢🚀✨ build on super fast 🔥 observables using most.js 🤘

ships with sinek 🙏 for backpressure

comes with js and native Kafka client, for more performance and SSL, SASL and Kerberos features

the lib also comes with a few window operations that are more similar to Apache Flink, yet they still feel natural in this api :squirrel:

overwriteable local-storage solution allows for any kind of datastore e.g. RocksDB, Redis, Postgres..

async (Promises) and sync stream operators e.g. stream$.map() or stream$.asyncMap()

super easy API

the lib is based on sinek, which is based on kafka-node's ConsumerGroups
