Kafka Connect for Hbase

A Sink connector to write to HBase.
I have the source connector implementation available at https://github.com/mravi/hbase-connect-kafka

Pre-requisites

Confluent 2.0
HBase 1.0.0
JDK 1.8

Assumptions

The HBase table already exists.
Each Kafka topic is mapped to a HBase table.

Properties

Below are the properties that need to be passed in the configuration file:

name	data type	required	description
zookeeper.quorum	string	yes	Zookeeper quorum of the HBase cluster
event.parser.class	string	yes	Can be either AvroEventParser or JsonEventParser to parse avro or json events respectively.
topics	string	yes	list of kafka topics.
hbase.`<topicname>`.rowkey.columns	string	yes	The columns that represent the rowkey of the hbase table `<topicname>`
hbase.`<topicname>`.family	string	yes	Column family of the hbase table `<topicname>`.

Example connector.properties file

name=kafka-cdc-hbase
connector.class=io.svectors.hbase.sink.HBaseSinkConnector
tasks.max=1
topics=test
zookeeper.quorum=localhost:2181
event.parser.class=io.svectors.hbase.parser.AvroEventParser
hbase.test.rowkey.columns=id
hbase.test.rowkey.delimiter=|
hbase.test.family=d

Packaging

mvn clean package

Deployment

Follow the Getting started guide for HBase.
Download and install Confluent
Copy hbase-sink.jar and hbase-sink.properties from the project build location to $CONFLUENT_HOME/share/java/kafka-connect-hbase

mkdir $CONFLUENT_HOME/share/java/kafka-connect-hbase
cp target/hbase-sink.jar  $CONFLUENT_HOME/share/java/kafka-connect-hbase/
cp hbase-sink.properties $CONFLUENT_HOME/share/java/kafka-connect-hbase/

Start Zookeeper, Kafka and Schema registry

nohup $CONFLUENT_HOME/bin/zookeeper-server-start $CONFLUENT_HOME/etc/kafka/zookeeper.properties &
nohup $CONFLUENT_HOME/bin/kafka-server-start $CONFLUENT_HOME/etc/kafka/server.properties &
nohup $CONFLUENT_HOME/bin/schema-registry-start $CONFLUENT_HOME/etc/schema-registry/schema-registry.properties &"

Create HBase table 'test' from hbase shell
Start the hbase sink

export CLASSPATH=$CONFLUENT_HOME/share/java/kafka-connect-hbase/hbase-sink.jar

$CONFLUENT_HOME/bin/connect-standalone etc/schema-registry/connect-avro-standalone.properties etc/kafka-connect-hbase/hbase-sink.properties

Test with avro console, start the console to create the topic and write values

$CONFLUENT_HOME/bin/kafka-avro-console-producer \
--broker-list localhost:9092 --topic test \
--property value.schema='{"type":"record","name":"record","fields":[{"name":"id","type":"int"}, {"name":"name", "type": "string"}]}'

#insert at prompt
{"id": 1, "name": "foo"}
{"id": 2, "name": "bar"}
