HDFS 2 SINK CONNECTOR
To use this connector, specify the name of the connector class in the connector.class configuration property.
connector.class
connector.class=io.confluent.connect.hdfs.HdfsSinkConnector
Connector-specific configuration properties are described below.
hdfs.url
The HDFS connection URL. This configuration has the format of hdfs://hostname:port and specifies the HDFS to export data to. This property is deprecated and will be removed in future releases. Use store.url instead.
store.url
hadoop.conf.dir
The Hadoop configuration directory.
hadoop.home
The Hadoop home directory.
logs.dir
Top level directory to store the write ahead logs. Supports ${topic} in the value, which will be replaced by the actual topic name. Supports ${0}, …, ${n} in conjunction with topic.capture.groups.regex. For details, see topic.capture.groups.regex configuration documentation.
${topic}
${0}
${n}
topic.capture.groups.regex
hdfs.authentication.kerberos
Configuration indicating whether HDFS is using Kerberos for authentication.
connect.hdfs.principal
connect.hdfs.keytab
hdfs.namenode.principal
kerberos.ticket.renew.period.ms
The principal to use when HDFS is using Kerberos to for authentication.
The path to the keytab file for the HDFS connector principal. This keytab file should only be readable by the connector user.
The principal for HDFS Namenode.
The period in milliseconds to renew the Kerberos ticket.
format.class
The format class to use when writing data to the store. Format classes implement the io.confluent.connect.storage.format.Format interface.
io.confluent.connect.storage.format.Format
io.confluent.connect.hdfs.avro.AvroFormat
These classes are available by default:
io.confluent.connect.hdfs.json.JsonFormat
io.confluent.connect.hdfs.orc.OrcFormat
io.confluent.connect.hdfs.parquet.ParquetFormat
io.confluent.connect.hdfs.string.StringFormat
flush.size
Number of records written to store before invoking file commits.
Important
Rotation strategy logic: In the following rotation strategies, the logic to flush files to storage is triggered when a new record arrives, after the defined interval or scheduled interval time. Flushing files is also triggered periodically by the offset.flush.interval.ms setting defined in the Connect worker configuration. The offset.flush.interval.ms setting defaults to 60000 ms (60 seconds). If you enable the properties rotate.interval.ms or rotate.schedule.interval.ms and ingestion rate is low, you should set offset.flush.interval.ms to a smaller value so that records flush at the rotation interval (or close to the interval) . Leaving the offset.flush.interval.ms set to the default 60 seconds may cause records to stay in an open file for longer than expected, if no new records get processed that trigger rotation.
offset.flush.interval.ms
rotate.interval.ms
rotate.schedule.interval.ms
The time interval in milliseconds to invoke file commits. This configuration ensures that file commits are invoked every configured interval. This configuration is useful when data ingestion rate is low and the connector didn’t write enough messages to commit files. The default value -1 means that this feature is disabled.
The time interval in milliseconds to periodically invoke file commits. This configuration ensures that file commits are invoked every configured interval. Time of commit will be adjusted to 00:00 of selected timezone. Commit will be performed at scheduled time regardless previous commit time or number of messages. This configuration is useful when you have to commit your data based on current server time, like at the beginning of every hour. The default value -1 means that this feature is disabled.
The following Avro converter properties can be used in the connector configuration:
schemas.cache.config
The size of the schema cache used in the Avro converter.
enhanced.avro.schema.support
Enable enhanced Avro schema support in the Avro Converter. When set to true, this property preserves Avro schema package information and Enums when going from Avro schema to Connect schema. This information is added back in when going from Connect schema to Avro schema.
true
connect.meta.data
Allow the Connect converter to add its metadata to the output schema.
The connect.meta.data property preserves the following Connect schema metadata when going from Connect schema to Avro schema. The following metadata is added back in when going from Avro schema to Connect schema.
For detailed information and configuration examples for Avro converters listed above, see Using Kafka Connect with Schema Registry.
retry.backoff.ms
The retry backoff in milliseconds. This config is used to notify Connect to retry delivering a message batch or performing recovery in case of transient exceptions.
shutdown.timeout.ms
Clean shutdown timeout. This makes sure that asynchronous Hive metastore updates are completed during connector shutdown.
filename.offset.zero.pad.width
Width to zero-pad offsets in store’s filenames if offsets are too short in order to provide fixed-width filenames that can be ordered by simple lexicographic sorting.
avro.codec
The Avro compression codec to be used for output files. Available values: null, deflate, snappy and bzip2 (Codec source is org.apache.avro.file.CodecFactory).
parquet.codec
The Parquet compression codec to be used for output files.
storage.class
The underlying storage layer.
topics.dir
Top level directory to store the data ingested from Apache Kafka®. Supports ${topic} in the value, which will be replaced by the actual topic name. Supports ${0}, …, ${n} in conjunction with topic.capture.groups.regex. For details, see topic.capture.groups.regex configuration documentation.
Store’s connection URL, if applicable. For example: hdfs://hostname:port.
hdfs://hostname:port
directory.delim
Directory delimiter pattern
A Java Pattern regex that matches the entire topic and captures values for substituting into topics.dir. Indexed capture groups are accessible with ${n}, where ${0} refers to the whole match and ${1} refers to the first capture group. Example config value of ([a-zA-Z]*)_([a-zA-Z]*) will match topics that are two words delimited by an underscore and will capture each word separately. With topic.dir = ${1}/${2}, a record from the topic example_name will be written into a subdirectory of example/name/. By default, this functionality is not enabled.
${1}
([a-zA-Z]*)_([a-zA-Z]*)
topic.dir = ${1}/${2}
example_name
example/name/
partitioner.class
The partitioner to use when writing data to the store. The following partitioners are available:
DefaultPartitioner
DailyPartitioner
HourlyPartitioner
FieldPartitioner
partition.field.name
TimeBasedPartitioner
partition.duration.ms
path.format
locale
timezone
The name of the partitioning field when FieldPartitioner is used. You can enter multiple partitioning field names using comma-separated names.
The duration of a partition milliseconds used by TimeBasedPartitioner. The default value -1 means that we are not using TimeBasedPartitioner.
This configuration is used to set the format of the data directories when partitioning with TimeBasedPartitioner. The format set in this configuration converts the Unix timestamp to proper directories strings. For example, if you set path.format='year'=YYYY/'month'=MM/'day'=dd/'hour'=HH, the data directories will have the format /year=2015/month=12/day=07/hour=15/.
path.format='year'=YYYY/'month'=MM/'day'=dd/'hour'=HH
/year=2015/month=12/day=07/hour=15/
The locale to use when partitioning with TimeBasedPartitioner. Used to format dates and times. For example, use en-US for US English, en-GB for UK English, or fr-FR for French (in France). These may vary by Java version. See the available locales.
en-US
en-GB
fr-FR
The timezone to use when partitioning with TimeBasedPartitioner. Used to format and compute dates and times. All timezone IDs must be specified in the long format, such as America/Los_Angeles, America/New_York, and Europe/Paris, or UTC. Alternatively a locale independent, fixed offset, datetime zone can be specified in form [+-]hh:mm. Support for these timezones may vary by Java version. See the available timezones within each locale, such as those within the US English locale.
America/Los_Angeles
America/New_York
Europe/Paris
UTC
[+-]hh:mm
org.joda.time.DateTimeZone
timestamp.extractor
The extractor that gets the timestamp for records when partitioning with TimeBasedPartitioner. It can be set to Wallclock, Record or RecordField in order to use one of the built-in timestamp extractors or be given the fully-qualified class name of a user-defined class that extends the TimestampExtractor interface.
