This Kafka Connect connector provides the capability to watch a directory for files and read the data as new files are written to the input directory. Each of the records in the input file will be converted based on the user supplied schema. The connectors in this project handle all different kinds of use cases like ingesting json, csv, tsv, avro, or binary files.
The following command can be used to install the plugin directly from the Confluent Hub using the Confluent Hub Client.
confluent-hub install jcustenborder/kafka-connect-spooldir:latestThe zip file that is deployed to the Confluent Hub is available under
target/components/packages/. You can manually extract this zip file which includes all dependencies. All the dependencies
that are required to deploy the plugin are under target/kafka-connect-target as well. Make sure that you include all the dependencies that are required
to run the plugin.
- Create a directory under the
plugin.pathon your Connect worker. - Copy all of the dependencies under the newly created subdirectory.
- Restart the Connect worker.
com.github.jcustenborder.kafka.connect.spooldir.SpoolDirSchemaLessJsonSourceConnector
This connector is used to stream <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_Streaming>_ JSON files from a directory while converting the data based on the schema supplied in the configuration. This connector will read each file node by node writing the result to Kafka. For example if your data file contains several json objects the connector will read from { to } for each object and write each object to Kafka.
This connector does not try to convert the json records to a schema. The recommended converter to use is the StringConverter. Example: value.converter=org.apache.kafka.connect.storage.StringConverter

com.github.jcustenborder.kafka.connect.spooldir.SpoolDirJsonSourceConnector
This connector is used to stream <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_Streaming> JSON files from a directory while converting the data based on the schema supplied in the configuration.
There are some caveats to running this connector with schema.generation.enabled = true. If schema generation is enabled the connector will start by reading one of the files that match input.file.pattern in the path specified by input.path. If there are no files when the connector starts or is restarted the connector will fail to start. If there are different fields in other files they will not be detected. The recommended path is to specify a schema that the files will be parsed with. This will ensure that data written by this connector to Kafka will be consistent across files that have inconsistent columns. For example if some files have an optional column that is not always included, create a schema that includes the column marked as optional.
If you want to import JSON node by node in the file and do not care about schemas, do not use this connector with Schema Generation enabled. Take a look at the Schema Less Json Source Connector.
To get a starting point for a schema you can use the following command to generate an all String schema. This will give you the basic structure of a schema. From there you can changes the types to match what you expect. .. code-block:: bash

com.github.jcustenborder.kafka.connect.spooldir.SpoolDirCsvSourceConnector
The SpoolDirCsvSourceConnector will monitor the directory specified in input.path for files and read them as a CSV converting each of the records to the strongly typed equivalent specified in key.schema and value.schema.
There are some caveats to running this connector with schema.generation.enabled = true. If schema generation is enabled the connector will start by reading one of the files that match input.file.pattern in the path specified by input.path. If there are no files when the connector starts or is restarted the connector will fail to start. If there are different fields in other files they will not be detected. The recommended path is to specify a schema that the files will be parsed with. This will ensure that data written by this connector to Kafka will be consistent across files that have inconsistent columns. For example if some files have an optional column that is not always included, create a schema that includes the column marked as optional.
To get a starting point for a schema you can use the following command to generate an all String schema. This will give you the basic structure of a schema. From there you can changes the types to match what you expect.
