The images are based of Eneco's base image which in turn in base of Confluents Kafka Connect image, however the Eneco image contains liveliness checks on the Connect worker running withn the Docker, this is meant for Kubernetes.
These images use Confluents docker utility belt to take all enviroment variables prefixed with CONNECTOR
to create a
connector properties file. Environment variables beginning with CONNECT
are used to create the properties file for the Kafka Connect
Cluster. The Connector properties file is then pushed via DataMountaineers Connect CLI to the Connect workers API once it's up to start the connector.
The expected usecase is that the Connect Worker joins with other pods deployed via Helm to form a Connect Cluster for a specific instance of one connector only. It can only post in a configuration for one type based on the enviroment variables.
For an awesome deployment app to deploy your landscape checkout Eneco's Landscaper.
