Configuration option | Description |
bootstrap.servers | This is the only option in the Kafka configuration for which you must specify a value. You can either set it under managerConfig (to be used as the default for all consumers and producers) or in the configuration of a specific consumer or producer (which overrides any default given in the parent chain manager). When this option is set under managerConfig, it is used as the default. It needs to be enclosed in quotation marks. Example: bootstrap.servers: "localhost:62618" Type: string. |
channelPrefix | Prefix for dynamic mapping. If the prefix ends with a colon (:), it needs to be enclosed in quotation marks (see also Using YAML configuration files). When the channel is mapped to a Kafka topic, the prefix is not used. For example, if the prefix is "kafka:", then the channel kafka:test/a maps to the Kafka topic test/a. Type: string. Default: "kafka:". |
consumerConfig | Keys and values of the consumer configuration options in Kafka. See the Kafka documentation at https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/ for detailed information on the consumer configs. Some default values are provided by the Kafka transport, but you can override them by specifying different values. The default values are:  group.id: A unique identifier for every instance.session.timeout.ms: "30000"key.deserializer: "org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringDeserializer"value.deserializer: "org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringDeserializer"Type: map. |
producerConfig | Keys and values of the producer configuration options in Kafka. See the Kafka documentation at https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/ for detailed information on the producer configs. Some default values are provided by the Kafka transport, but you can override them by specifying different values. The default values are: linger.ms: 0key.serializer: "org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringSerializer"value.serializer: "org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringSerializer"Type: map. |
