An ansible role to install and configure kafka distributed pub/sub messaging queue clusters.
Add to your playbooks requirements.yml:
- src: https://github.com/jaytaylor/ansible-kafka
and then run:
ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml --ignore-errors
Or if you just want to grab this role and start using it:
cd my-playbook-folder/roles
git clone https://github.com/jaytaylor/ansible-kafka.git
cd -
Once the role is installed, configure it from your playbook file (e.g. playbook.yml).
Example:
---
- hosts: [all]
roles:
- {
role: "ansible-kafka",
kafka_hosts: "{{ groups.kafka | list }}",
kafka_zookeeper_hosts: "{{ zookeeper_hosts | list }}"
kafka_version: 0.8.2.1, # Kafka version override.
kafka_scala_serverion: 2.10 # Scala version override.
}
Where kafka_hosts
and zookeeper_hosts
are both defined variables
(e.g. in group_vars/all), and contain the list of hosts to use.
If you are using this role from the ansible-galaxy website, make sure you use "jaytaylor.kafka" for the role name (rather than "ansible-kafka").
kafka_hosts
- list of hosts in the cluster.kafka_zookeeper_hosts
- list of zookeeper hosts for the cluster.kafka_broker_id
- Integer uniquely identifying the broker, by default one will be generated for you either by this role or by kafka itself for versions >= 0.9.kafka_generate_broker_id
- Flag controlling whether to generate a broker id, defaults toyes
.
