By default the MySQL JDBC driver will put the entire result set into memory, which obviously doesn't work for tables of even moderate sizes. This change adds support for streaming rows in result sets when the tables have more than a configurable number of rows (defaults to 1,000).
This posed a problem for how we were previously finding the last row in the last table; the MySQL driver does not support `ResultSet.isLast()` on result sets that are streamed. Instead, this commit wraps the consumer to which the snapshot reader writes all source records, with a consumer that buffers the last record. When the snapshot completes, the offset is updated (denoting the end of the snapshot) and set on the last buffered record before that record is flushed to the normal consumer. This should add minimal overhead while simplifying the logic to ensure the last source record has the updated offset.
This also improves the log output of the snapshot process.
The mysql:5.7 docker image changed its output to be more like mysql/mysql-server:5.7, and this broke our build because of what our build is looking for while waiting to for the server to completely intialize. Simply changing the pattern corrects the problem.
* fixes a java.sql.Date conversion test to take into account zone offsets
* makes sure the ZK DB is closed during testing, otherwise file handles may leak and cause test failures
Upgraded from Kafka 0.9.0.1 to Kafka 0.10.0. The only required change was to override the `Connector.config()` method, which returns `null` or a `ConfigDef` instance that contains detailed metadata for each of the configuration fields, including supporting recommended values and marking fields as not visible (e.g., if they don't make sense given other configuration field values). This can be used by user interfaces to data-drive the configuration of a connector. Also, the default validation logic of the Connector implementations uses a `Validator` that is pretty restrictive in its functionality.
Debezium already had a fairly decent and simple `Configuration` framework. After several attempts to try and merge these concepts, reconciling the two validation mechanisms was very complicated and involved a lot of changes. It was easier to simply continue Debezium-specific validation and to override the `Connector.validate(...)` method to use Debezium's `Configuration`-based validation. Connector-based validation logic includes determining recommended values, so Debezium's `Field` class (used to define each configuration property) was enhanced with a new `Recommender` class that is similar to Kafka's.
Additional integration tests were added to verify that the `ConfigDef` result is acceptable and that the new connector validation logic works as expected, including getting recommended values for some fields (e.g., database names, table/collection names) from MySQL and MongoDB by connecting and dynamically reading the values. This was done in a way that remains backward compatible with the regular expression formats of these fields, but in a user interface that uses the `ConfigDef` mechanism the user can simply select the databases and table/collection identifiers.
Added an integration test case to diagnose the loss of the fractional seconds from MySQL temporal values. The problem appears to be a bug in the MySQL Binary Log Connector library that we used, and this bug was reported as https://github.com/shyiko/mysql-binlog-connector-java/issues/103. That was fixed in version 0.3.2 of the library, which Stanley was kind enough to release for us.
During testing, though, several issues were discovered in how temporal values are handled and converted from the MySQL events, through the MySQL Binary Log client library, and through the Debezium MySQL connector to conform with Kafka Connect's various temporal logical schema types. Most of the issues involved converting most of the temporal values from local time zone (which is how they are created by the MySQL Binary Log client) into UTC (which is how Kafka Connect expects them). Really, java.util.Date doesn't have time zone information and instead tracks the number of milliseconds past epoch, but the conversion of normal timestamp information to the milliseconds past epoch in UTC depends on the time zone in which that conversion happens.
The MySQL connector now maps TINYINT and SMALLINT columns to INT16 (rather than INT32) because INT16 is smaller and yet still large enough for all TINYINT and SMALLINT values. Note that the range of TINYINT values is either -128 to 127 for signed or 0 to 255 for unsigned, and thus INT8 is not an acceptable choice since it can only handle values in the range 0 to 255. Additionally, the JDBC Specification also suggests the proper Java type for SQL-99's TINYINT is short, which maps to Kafka Connect's INT16.
This change will be backward compatible, although the generated Kafka Connect schema will be different than in previous versions. This shouldn't cause a problem, since clients should expect to handle schema changes, and this schema change does comply with Avro schema evolution rules.
Added a new `debezium-connector-mongodb` module that defines a MongoDB connector. The MongoDB connector can capture and record the changes within a MongoDB replica set, or when seeded with addresses of the configuration server of a MongoDB sharded cluster, the connector captures the changes from the each replica set used as a shard. In the latter case, the connector even discovers the addition of or removal of shards.
The connector monitors each replica set using multiple tasks and, if needed, separate threads within each task. When a replica set is being monitored for the first time, the connector will perform an "initial sync" of that replica set's databases and collections. Once the initial sync has completed, the connector will then begin tailing the oplog of the replica set, starting at the exact point in time at which it started the initial sync. This equivalent to how MongoDB replication works.
The connector always uses the replica set's primary node to tail the oplog. If the replica set undergoes an election and different node becomes primary, the connector will immediately stop tailing the oplog, connect to the new primary, and start tailing the oplog using the new primary node. Likewise, if connector experiences any problems communicating with the replica set members, it will try to reconnect (using exponential backoff so as to not overwhelm the replica set) and continue tailing the oplog from where it last left off. In this way the connector is able to dynamically adjust to changes in replica set membership and to automatically handle communication failures.
The MongoDB oplog contains limited information, and in particular the events describing updates and deletes do not actually have the before or after state of the documents. Instead, the oplog events are all idempotent, so updates contain the effective changes that were made during an update, and deletes merely contain the deleted document identifier. Consequently, the connector is limited in the information it includes in its output events. Create and read events do contain the initial state, but the update contain only the changes (rather than the before and/or after states of the document) and delete events do not have the before state of the deleted document. All connector events, however, do contain the local system timestamp at which the event was processed and _source_ information detailing the origins of the event, including the replica set name, the MongoDB transaction timestamp of the event, and the transactions identifier among other things.
It is possible for MongoDB to lose commits in specific failure situations. For exmaple, if the primary applies a change and records it in its oplog before it then crashes unexpectedly, the secondary nodes may not have had a chance to read those changes from the primary's oplog before the primary crashed. If one such secondary is then elected as primary, it's oplog is missing the last changes that the old primary had recorded and no longer has those changes. In these cases where MongoDB loses changes recorded in a primary's oplog, it is possible that the MongoDB connector may or may not capture these lost changes.
Removed several of the `GtidSet` convenience methods that are not in the [improved](https://github.com/shyiko/mysql-binlog-connector-java/pull/100) `com.github.shyiko.mysql.binlog.GtidSet` class. Getting these out of our API will make it easier to reuse the improved `com.github.shyiko.mysql.binlog.GtidSet` class.
