kdef

kdef aims to provide an easy way to manage resources in a Kafka cluster by having them defined explicitly in a human-readable format. Changes to resource definitions can be reviewed like code and applied to a cluster.

kdef was designed to support being run in a CI-CD environment, allowing teams to manage Kafka resource definitions in source control with pull requests (GitOps).

Features

• Definition support for:
  • Topics
  • ACLs
  • Per-broker configs
  • Cluster-wide broker configs
• YAML and JSON definition formats
• TLS and SASL mechanisms (PLAIN, SCRAM, AWS_MSK_IAM)
• CLI scripting support (input via stdin, JSON output, etc.)

Compatibility

kdef uses Kafka broker APIs. These are the minimum Kafka versions required to apply each definition kind.

• acl (Kafka 0.11.0+)
• broker (Kafka 0.11.0+)
• brokers (Kafka 0.11.0+)
• topic (Kafka 2.4.0+)
