Django Kafka Consumer

Purpose

Django Kafka Consumer is an utility for consume events from Kafka

Quick start

1. Add kafka_consumer to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:

   INSTALLED_APPS = [
       # ...
       'kafka_consumer',
   ]
   

2. Run python manage.py migrate to create the kafka_consumer models.

3. Add custom subscribers as classes derived from kafka_consumer.subscribers.base.BaseSubscriber

4. Prepare settings:

   KAFKA_HOSTS = ['kafka-host.com:9092']
   
   KAFKA_CONSUMER_TOPICS = {
       'topic_key': {
           'topic': 'topic name',  # no spaces allowed!
           'group': 'topic group',
           'client': 'client ID',
           'subscribers': (
               'path.to.subscriber.Class',
           ),
           'message_processor': 'processor key',  # lookup in KAFKA_CONSUMERS_MESSAGE_PROCESSORS
           'wait': 0,  # optional, indicates how many seconds Kafka will wait to fillup buffer, None or ommited means wait forever
           'max_number_of_messages_in_batch': 200,
           'consumer_options': {  # Overrides options used to create KafkaConsumer
               'auto_offset_reset': 'latest',
           }
       },
   }
   KAFKA_CONSUMERS_MESSAGE_PROCESSORS = {
     'processor key': {
       'class': 'path.to.messageprocessor.Class',
       # Processors init arguments, e.g.
       'rsa_private_key_path': 'path/to/private/key'
     },
   }
   
   KAFKA_CONSUMER_SSL_SETTINGS = {
       'security_protocol': 'SSL',
       'ssl_cafile': '/path/to/file/ca.crt',
       'ssl_certfile': '/path/to/file/signed.request.crt',
       'ssl_keyfile': '/path/to/some/keyfile.key',
   }
   

5. To continuously consume events from kafka run:

   python manage.py consume --supervised --topic topic_key
