REST ClientType: Make thread pool and timeouts configuration

Do not wait forever for Kafka REST API to complete but allow
to limit:
- Number of concurrent REST-API requests waiting in parallel
- Timeout for waiting for a REST-API to complete

This allows to avoid piling up the concurrent REST-API requests
pending to the Kafka REST Proxy at the same time.

The timeout is also used to make sure that REST client threads
are not wasted and they are timing out at the same speed
of the REST API timeout:
- ConnectionRequestTimeout
- ConnectTimeout
- SocketTimeout

Kafka: Gerrit event producer for Apache Kafka

Build Status

Synopsis

This plugins allows to define a distributed stream of events published by Gerrit.

Events can be anything, from the traditional stream events to the Gerrit metrics.

This plugin requires Gerrit 2.13 or laster.

Environments

  • linux
  • java-1.8
  • Bazel

Build

Kafka plugin can be build as a regular ‘in-tree’ plugin. That means that is required to clone a Gerrit source tree first and then to have the Kafka plugin source directory into the /plugins path. Additionally, the plugins/external_plugin_deps.bzl file needs to be updated to match the Kafka plugin one.

git clone --recursive https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit
git clone https://gerrit.googlesource.com/plugins/events-kafka gerrit/plugins/events-kafka
cd gerrit
rm plugins/external_plugin_deps.bzl
ln -s ./events-kafka/external_plugin_deps.bzl plugins/.

To build the events-kafka plugins, issue the command from the Gerrit source path:

bazel build plugins/events-kafka

The output is created in

bazel-genfiles/plugins/events-kafka/events-kafka.jar

Minimum Configuration

Assuming a running Kafka broker on the same Gerrit host, add the following settings to gerrit.config:

  [plugin "events-kafka"]
    bootstrapServers = localhost:9092
