librdkafka - the Apache Kafka C/C++ client library ================================================== Copyright (c) 2012-2020, [Magnus Edenhill](http://www.edenhill.se/). [https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka) **librdkafka** is a C library implementation of the [Apache Kafka](https://kafka.apache.org/) protocol, providing Producer, Consumer and Admin clients. It was designed with message delivery reliability and high performance in mind, current figures exceed 1 million msgs/second for the producer and 3 million msgs/second for the consumer. **librdkafka** is licensed under the 2-clause BSD license. KAFKA is a registered trademark of The Apache Software Foundation and has been licensed for use by librdkafka. librdkafka has no affiliation with and is not endorsed by The Apache Software Foundation. # Features # * Full Exactly-Once-Semantics (EOS) support * High-level producer, including Idempotent and Transactional producers * High-level balanced KafkaConsumer (requires broker >= 0.9) * Simple (legacy) consumer * Admin client * Compression: snappy, gzip, lz4, zstd * [SSL](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/wiki/Using-SSL-with-librdkafka) support * [SASL](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/wiki/Using-SASL-with-librdkafka) (GSSAPI/Kerberos/SSPI, PLAIN, SCRAM, OAUTHBEARER) support * Full list of [supported KIPs](INTRODUCTION.md#supported-kips) * Broker version support: >=0.8 (see [Broker version compatibility](INTRODUCTION.md#broker-version-compatibility)) * Guaranteed API stability for C & C++ APIs (ABI safety guaranteed for C) * [Statistics](STATISTICS.md) metrics * Debian package: librdkafka1 and librdkafka-dev in Debian and Ubuntu * RPM package: librdkafka and librdkafka-devel * Gentoo package: dev-libs/librdkafka * Portable: runs on Linux, MacOS X, Windows, Solaris, FreeBSD, AIX, ... # Documentation * Public API in [C header](src/rdkafka.h) and [C++ header](src-cpp/rdkafkacpp.h). * Introduction and manual in [INTRODUCTION.md](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/blob/master/INTRODUCTION.md). * Configuration properties in [CONFIGURATION.md](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/blob/master/CONFIGURATION.md). * Statistics metrics in [STATISTICS.md](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/blob/master/STATISTICS.md). * [Frequently asked questions](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/wiki). **NOTE**: The `master` branch is actively developed, use latest [release](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/releases) for production use. # Installation ## Installing prebuilt packages On Mac OSX, install librdkafka with homebrew: ```bash $ brew install librdkafka ``` On Debian and Ubuntu, install librdkafka from the Confluent APT repositories, see instructions [here](https://docs.confluent.io/current/installation/installing_cp/deb-ubuntu.html#get-the-software) and then install librdkafka: ```bash $ apt install librdkafka-dev ``` On RedHat, CentOS, Fedora, install librdkafka from the Confluent YUM repositories, instructions [here](https://docs.confluent.io/current/installation/installing_cp/rhel-centos.html#get-the-software) and then install librdkafka: ```bash $ yum install librdkafka-devel ``` On Windows, reference [librdkafka.redist](https://www.nuget.org/packages/librdkafka.redist/) NuGet package in your Visual Studio project. For other platforms, follow the source building instructions below. ## Installing librdkafka using vcpkg You can download and install librdkafka using the [vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg) dependency manager: ```bash # Install vcpkg if not already installed $ git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git $ cd vcpkg $ ./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh $ ./vcpkg integrate install # Install librdkafka $ vcpkg install librdkafka ``` The librdkafka package in vcpkg is kept up to date by Microsoft team members and community contributors. If the version is out of date, please [create an issue or pull request](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg) on the vcpkg repository. ## Build from source ### Requirements The GNU toolchain GNU make pthreads zlib-dev (optional, for gzip compression support) libssl-dev (optional, for SSL and SASL SCRAM support) libsasl2-dev (optional, for SASL GSSAPI support) libzstd-dev (optional, for ZStd compression support) **NOTE**: Static linking of ZStd (requires zstd >= 1.2.1) in the producer enables encoding the original size in the compression frame header, which will speed up the consumer. Use `STATIC_LIB_libzstd=/path/to/libzstd.a ./configure --enable-static` to enable static ZStd linking. MacOSX example: `STATIC_LIB_libzstd=$(brew ls -v zstd | grep libzstd.a$) ./configure --enable-static` ### Building ./configure # Or, to automatically install dependencies using the system's package manager: # ./configure --install-deps # Or, build dependencies from source: # ./configure --install-deps --source-deps-only make sudo make install **NOTE**: See [README.win32](README.win32) for instructions how to build on Windows with Microsoft Visual Studio. **NOTE**: See [CMake instructions](packaging/cmake/README.md) for experimental CMake build (unsupported). ## Usage in code 1. Refer to the [examples directory](examples/) for code using: * Producers: basic producers, idempotent producers, transactional producers. * Consumers: basic consumers, reading batches of messages. * Performance and latency testing tools. 2. Refer to the [examples GitHub repo](https://github.com/confluentinc/examples/tree/master/clients/cloud/c) for code connecting to a cloud streaming data service based on Apache Kafka 3. Link your program with `-lrdkafka` (C) or `-lrdkafka++` (C++). ## Commercial support Commercial support is available from [Confluent Inc](https://www.confluent.io/) ## Community support **Only the [last official release](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/releases) is supported for community members.** File bug reports, feature requests and questions using [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/issues) Questions and discussions are also welcome on the [Confluent Community slack](https://launchpass.com/confluentcommunity) #clients channel. # Language bindings # * C#/.NET: [confluent-kafka-dotnet](https://github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-dotnet) (based on [rdkafka-dotnet](https://github.com/ah-/rdkafka-dotnet)) * C++: [cppkafka](https://github.com/mfontanini/cppkafka) * C++: [modern-cpp-kafka](https://github.com/Morgan-Stanley/modern-cpp-kafka) * Common Lisp: [cl-rdkafka](https://github.com/SahilKang/cl-rdkafka) * D (C-like): [librdkafka](https://github.com/DlangApache/librdkafka/) * D (C++-like): [librdkafkad](https://github.com/tamediadigital/librdkafka-d) * Erlang: [erlkaf](https://github.com/silviucpp/erlkaf) * Go: [confluent-kafka-go](https://github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-go) * Haskell (kafka, conduit, avro, schema registry): [hw-kafka](https://github.com/haskell-works/hw-kafka) * Lua: [luardkafka](https://github.com/mistsv/luardkafka) * Node.js: [node-rdkafka](https://github.com/Blizzard/node-rdkafka) * OCaml: [ocaml-kafka](https://github.com/didier-wenzek/ocaml-kafka) * Perl: [Net::Kafka](https://github.com/bookingcom/perl-Net-Kafka) * PHP: [phpkafka](https://github.com/EVODelavega/phpkafka) * PHP: [php-rdkafka](https://github.com/arnaud-lb/php-rdkafka) * Python: [confluent-kafka-python](https://github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-python) * Python: [PyKafka](https://github.com/Parsely/pykafka) * Ruby: [Hermann](https://github.com/reiseburo/hermann) * Ruby: [rdkafka-ruby](https://github.com/appsignal/rdkafka-ruby) * Rust: [rust-rdkafka](https://github.com/fede1024/rust-rdkafka) * Tcl: [KafkaTcl](https://github.com/flightaware/kafkatcl) * Shell: [kafkacat](https://github.com/
