Building from the sources
If you want to develop and test the connector you need to build the jar from sources. To do so please follow those steps:
-
First build the package and locate the cassandra-enhanced-pulsar-sink .nar file (in pulsar-dist/target):
mvn clean package
-
Copy the .nar file into the 'connectors' directory of your Pulsar broker
-
Open the Pulsar Sink config file
config/pulsar-sink.yml
and configure your topic and mapping:- in "topics" put the name of the topic - create a mapping from your topic to your Cassandra table
-
Run Pulsar Sink LocalRun and specify the path to the that config file:
bin/pulsar-admin sinks localrun \ --sink-config-file /path/to/config/pulsar-sink.yaml \ -t cassandra-enhanced \ -i persistent://public/default/topic
With this command you are reading data from topic 'persistent://public/default/topic', the destination Cassandra cluster (address, authentication...), keyspace and table are defined in pulsar-sink.yml file
You can map multiple topics to multiple tables.
