Introduction
This project contains common transformations for every day use cases with Kafka Connect.
Installation
Confluent Hub
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-transform-common:latest
Manually
The 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.path
on your Connect worker. - Copy all of the dependencies under the newly created subdirectory.
- Restart the Connect worker.

The field on the child struct containing the field to be extracted. For example if you wanted the extract address.state
you would use state
.

ExtractTimestamp
Key
com.github.jcustenborder.kafka.connect.transform.common.ExtractTimestamp$Key
Value
com.github.jcustenborder.kafka.connect.transform.common.ExtractTimestamp$Value
This transformation is used to use a field from the input data to override the timestamp for the record.
Configuration
General
field.name
The field to pull the timestamp from. This must be an int64 or a timestamp.
Importance: HIGH
Type: STRING
HeaderToField
Key
com.github.jcustenborder.kafka.connect.transform.common.HeaderToField$Key
Value
com.github.jcustenborder.kafka.connect.transform.common.HeaderToField$Value

header.mappings
The mapping of the header to the field in the message.
Importance: HIGH
Type: LIST
NormalizeSchema
Key
com.github.jcustenborder.kafka.connect.transform.common.NormalizeSchema$Key
Value
com.github.jcustenborder.kafka.connect.transform.common.NormalizeSchema$Value
This transformation is used to convert older schema versions to the latest schema version. This works by keying all of the schemas that are coming into the transformation by their schema name and comparing the version() of the schema. The latest version of a schema will be used. Schemas are discovered as the flow through the transformation. The latest version of a schema is what is used.

Development
Building the source
mvn clean package
Contributions
Contributions are always welcomed! Before you start any development please create an issue and
start a discussion. Create a pull request against your newly created issue and we're happy to see
if we can merge your pull request. First and foremost any time you're adding code to the code base
you need to include test coverage. Make sure that you run mvn clean package
before submitting your
pull to ensure that all of the tests, checkstyle rules, and the package can be successfully built.
