Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
static <T> KafkaRecordSerializationSchemaBuilder<T>	builder() Creates a default schema builder to provide common building blocks i.e.
default void	open(org.apache.flink.api.common.serialization.SerializationSchema.InitializationContext context, KafkaRecordSerializationSchema.KafkaSinkContext sinkContext) Initialization method for the schema.
org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.ProducerRecord<byte[],byte[]>	serialize(T element, KafkaRecordSerializationSchema.KafkaSinkContext context, Long timestamp) Serializes given element and returns it as a ProducerRecord.

Method Detail

open

default void open(org.apache.flink.api.common.serialization.SerializationSchema.InitializationContext context,
                  KafkaRecordSerializationSchema.KafkaSinkContext sinkContext)
           throws Exception

Initialization method for the schema. It is called before the actual working methods serialize(Object, KafkaSinkContext, Long) and thus suitable for one time setup work.

The provided SerializationSchema.InitializationContext can be used to access additional features such as e.g. registering user metrics.

Parameters:

context - Contextual information that can be used during initialization.

sinkContext - runtime information i.e. partitions, subtaskId

Throws:

Exception

serialize

org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.ProducerRecord<byte[],byte[]> serialize(T element,
                                                                          KafkaRecordSerializationSchema.KafkaSinkContext context,
                                                                          Long timestamp)

Serializes given element and returns it as a ProducerRecord.

Parameters:

element - element to be serialized

context - context to possibly determine target partition

timestamp - timestamp

Returns:

Kafka ProducerRecord

builder

static <T> KafkaRecordSerializationSchemaBuilder<T> builder()

Creates a default schema builder to provide common building blocks i.e. key serialization, value serialization, partitioning.

Type Parameters:

T - type of incoming elements

Returns:

KafkaRecordSerializationSchemaBuilder
