The MySQL connector’s built-in table filter now just filters out all tables within the known built-in databases, and does not check the names of the tables. Thus, the connector should no longer filter out tables in other databases that happen to have the same names as the tables in the built-in databases.
Corrected the MySQL DDL parser to correctly handle `FULLTEXT` indexes within a `CREATE TABLE` statement. The parser was incorrectly using `canConsume(…)` with a list of options instead of `canConsumeAnyOf(…)`.
With GTIDs enabled, each transaction in the binlog contains a GTID event, which gives us access to the GTID of the transaction. The GTID has the following format: source_id:transaction_id, where source_id is the UUID of the mysql server the transaction was written to.
I propose to allow a debezium instance to be configured with a UUID pattern to check against before producing DML events into Kafka. Debezium would produce a DML event into kafka if and only if the UUID in the event's GTID matches the pattern with which debezium was configured.
The configuration for the UUID patterns will make use of the existing gtid.source.includes and gtid.source.excludes options. The DML event filtering will only be performed if the new option gtid.source.filter.dml.events is true.
Changed the GTID source filters in the MySQL connector to be far more efficient when the filters specify literal UUIDs rather than regex patterns. In these cases, the predicate just checks whether a supplied value is in a hash set, and no regular expression patterns are used.
The GTID source filters can still be a combination of UUID literals and regular expressions, and the predicate will use the best implementation for each. For example, if the filters include all UUID literals, then regular expressions will never be used.
Upgraded Shyiko’s MySQL binary log client library from 0.8.0 to 0.9.0 to get new timeout behavior when it opens sockets and fix for JSON array processing.
Corrects how the MySQL connector reloads database history to take into account the included and excluded GTID sources. This only affects a connector configured to capture changes from _multiple_ MySQL database servers when GTID sources are explicitly excluded or included.
Some of our test cases verify (de)serialization using the Avro Converter, which is included in the Confluent Platform. This commit upgrades the Confluent Platform to version 3.1.2, which matches Kafka 0.10.1.1.
Improved the MySQL connector's logic to better handle Amazon RDS that does not allow giving user `SUPER` privileges. As before, the connector starts a transaction and attempts to get a global read lock via `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` to prevent writes to the database so that the binlog position can be accurately read _and_ the table schemas can be read without interference from other clients. Once that is done, the connector releases the global read lock and continues in the same transaction to read all table rows. This means that our snapshot is consistent, but we maintain the global read lock for a very short period of time.
Amazon's RDS and Aurora are hosted MySQL instances that do not allow users to have the `SUPER` privilege, which means the user cannot get a global read lock. In this case, the connector detects this error, continues to read the database and table names (without any lock), and _then_ uses `FLUSH TABLES <tableName> WITH READ LOCK` on each table that satisfies the filters to prevent changes from other clients. The connector then reads the table schemas, reads _all_ table rows, commits the transaction, and _finally_ releases the table locks.
Therefore, there are two very different behaviors/requirements when the user can't obtain a global read lock because of lack of privilege, like on RDS:
# The RDS user that the connector makes use of must also have the `LOCK TABLES` privilege; without it the connector will fail during the snapshot.
# The connector must hold the table read locks _until it has completed reading all of the tables_, since release the table locks using `UNLOCK TABLES` would prematurely commit our transaction and prevent us from getting a consistent snapshot. From the [MySQL documentation](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/flush.html):
> `UNLOCK TABLES` implicitly commits any active transaction only if any tables currently have been locked with `LOCK TABLES`. The commit does not occur for `UNLOCK TABLES` following `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` because the latter statement does not acquire table locks.
Corrected the MongoDB connector upon startup to restart an initial sync if the previously recorded offset signals that an initial sync was not completed in the prior run.
Also change the connector’s replicator to buffer the last record during an initial sync so that, upon completion of the initial sync, the last record can be updated with an offset that reflects that the initial sync was completed. This way, if the initial sync is completed but there are no other events in the oplog, the connector will still consider the initial sync as completed.
The MySQL DDL parser was not correclty handling `DEFINER` clauses within `CREATE TRIGGER` or `CREATE EVENT` statements. Support for `DEFINER` clauses was recently added for the various forms of `CREATE PROCEDURE`, `CREATE FUNCTION` and `CREATE VIEW` statements. These are the only kinds of statements that have the definer attribute, per the [MySQL documentation](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/stored-programs-security.html).
Changed the events’ `source` structure to optionally contain the identifier of the MySQL thread where appropriate. The thread is included on each `BEGIN` binlog event, so these are captured and added to all of the associated change events produced for that transaction.
The KafkaDatabaseHistory class was not behaving well in tests using my local development environment. When restoring from the persisted Kafka topic, the class would set up a Kafka consumer and see repeated messages. It is unclear whether the repeats were due to our test environment and very short poll timeouts. Regardless, the restore logic was refactored to track offsets so as to only process messages once.
