kcatpub

Publishes the output of kcat in JSON format.

Usage

Export messages in JSON envelope and parse payload as JSON:

kcat -b localhost:9092 -t source-topic -J -e | jq -c '.payload=(if .payload==null then null else (.payload|fromjson) end)' > output.json

You can publish messages in output.json by:

kcatpub -b localhost:1092 -f output.json -t destination-topic

You can also use the --session option to store or resume a session with a specific name. If you don't provide a session name, it will default to default, but previous session is not continued. This is useful when a large file is being processed and an error occured or program interrupted with CTRL+C.

kcatpub -b localhost:1092 -f output.json -t destination-topic -s my-session

To see available options, run:

kcatpub -h
