How to clone field in Kafka Connect?












0















I'm configuring Kafka Connect to copy data from Kafka to Database



I need to put value from some field to two column in Database .



My Kafka Message has two fields name, age. Target table has 3 columns name, displayName and age. I would like to clone value of name from Kafka message to put it in both columns name and displayName.



Is there any Transform, that can by applied to do that?

  • You can try to use a transformation: docs.confluent.io/current/connect/transforms/…

  • I read about default transforms, but how I understand InsertField allows you to add field with static value or with metadata information from message (ex. topic name partitions, etc), or am I wrong?

As Driss Nejjar says, this would typically be the kind of thing that a Single Message Transform would be perfect for. However, there is no Transform that ships with Apache Kafka that I can see that would do this. You could write your own, or you could also use KSQL:



CREATE STREAM new AS SELECT name, name as displayName, age FROM source;


This would take your source topic (populated by Connect), and add the additional field displayName, and write to a new Kafka topic called new.



Disclaimer: I work for Confluent, the company behind the KSQL project.
