Debezium SQL Server Connector

Since Camel 3.0

Only consumer is supported

The Debezium SQL Server component is wrapper around Debezium using Debezium Embedded, which enables Change Data Capture from SQL Server database using Debezium without the need for Kafka or Kafka Connect.

Note on handling failures: Per Debezium Embedded Engine documentation, the engines is actively recording source offsets and periodically flushes these offsets to a persistent storage, so when the application is restarted or crashed, the engine will resume from the last recorded offset. Thus, at normal operation, your downstream routes will receive each event exactly once, however in case of an application crash (not having a graceful shutdown), the application will resume from the last recorded offset, which may result in receiving duplicate events immediately after the restart. Therefore, your downstream routes should be tolerant enough of such case and deduplicate events if needed.

Note: The Debezium SQL Server component is currently not supported in OSGi

Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
    <artifactId>camel-debezium-sqlserver</artifactId>
    <version>x.x.x</version>
    <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

The key of the event, normally is the table Primary Key.

DebeziumConstants.HEADER_SOURCE_METADATA

"CamelDebeziumSourceMetadata"

Map

The metadata about the source event, for example table name, database name, log position, etc, please refer to the Debezium documentation for more info.

DebeziumConstants.HEADER_OPERATION

"CamelDebeziumOperation"

String

If presents, the type of event operation. Values for the connector are c for create (or insert), u for update, d for delete or r in case of a snapshot event.

DebeziumConstants.HEADER_TIMESTAMP

"CamelDebeziumTimestamp"

Long

If presents, the time (using the system clock in the JVM) at which the connector processed the event.

DebeziumConstants.HEADER_BEFORE

"CamelDebeziumBefore"

Struct

If presents, contains the state of the row before the event occurred.

Message body

The message body if is not null (in case of tombstones), it contains the state of the row after the event occurred as Struct format or Map format if you use the included Type Converter from Struct to Map (please look below for more explanation).

Samples

Consuming events

Here is a very simple route that you can use in order to listen to Debezium events from SQL Server connector.

from("debezium-sqlserver:dbz-test-1?offsetStorageFileName=/usr/offset-file-1.dat&databaseHostName=localhost&databaseUser=debezium&databasePassword=dbz&databaseServerName=my-app-connector&databaseHistoryFileName=/usr/history-file-1.dat")
    .log("Event received from Debezium : ${body}")
    .log("    with this identifier ${headers.CamelDebeziumIdentifier}")
    .log("    with these source metadata ${headers.CamelDebeziumSourceMetadata}")
    .log("    the event occured upon this operation '${headers.CamelDebeziumSourceOperation}'")
    .log("    on this database '${headers.CamelDebeziumSourceMetadata[db]}' and this table '${headers.CamelDebeziumSourceMetadata[table]}'")
    .log("    with the key ${headers.CamelDebeziumKey}")
    .log("    the previous value is ${headers.CamelDebeziumBefore}")

By default, the component will emit the events in the body and CamelDebeziumBefore header as Struct data type, the reasoning behind this, is to perceive the schema information in case is needed. However, the component as well contains a Type Converter that converts from default output type of Struct to Map in order to leverage Camel’s rich Data Format types which many of them work out of box with Map data type. To use it, you can either add Map.class type when you access the message e.g: exchange.getIn().getBody(Map.class), or you can convert the body always to Map from the route builder by adding .convertBodyTo(Map.class) to your Camel Route DSL after from statement.

We mentioned above about the schema, which can be used in case you need to perform advance data transformation and the schema is needed for that. If you choose not to convert your body to Map, you can obtain the schema information as Schema type from Struct like this:

from("debezium-sqlserver:[name]?[options]])
    .process(exchange -> {
        final Struct bodyValue = exchange.getIn().getBody(Struct.class);
        final Schema schemaValue = bodyValue.schema();

        log.info("Body value is :" + bodyValue);
        log.info("With Schema : " + schemaValue);
        log.info("And fields of :" + schemaValue.fields());
        log.info("Field name has `" + schemaValue.field("name").schema() + "` type");
    });

Important Note: This component is a thin wrapper around Debezium Engine as mentioned, therefore before using this component in production, you need to understand how Debezium works and how configurations can reflect the expected behavior, especially in regards to handling failures.

Spring Boot Auto-Configuration

When using debezium-sqlserver with Spring Boot make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for auto configuration:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel.springboot</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-debezium-sqlserver-starter</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

The component supports 70 options, which are listed below.

camel.component.debezium-sqlserver.additional-properties

Additional properties for debezium components in case they can’t be set directly on the camel configurations (e.g: setting Kafka Connect properties needed by Debezium engine, for example setting KafkaOffsetBackingStore), the properties have to be prefixed with additionalProperties.. E.g: additionalProperties.transactional.id=12345&additionalProperties.schema.registry.url=\http://localhost:8811/avro

camel.component.debezium-sqlserver.autowired-enabled

String

camel.component.debezium-sqlserver.snapshot-isolation-mode

Controls which transaction isolation level is used and how long the connector locks the monitored tables. The default is 'repeatable_read', which means that repeatable read isolation level is used. In addition, exclusive locks are taken only during schema snapshot. Using a value of 'exclusive' ensures that the connector holds the exclusive lock (and thus prevents any reads and updates) for all monitored tables during the entire snapshot duration. When 'snapshot' is specified, connector runs the initial snapshot in SNAPSHOT isolation level, which guarantees snapshot consistency. In addition, neither table nor row-level locks are held. When 'read_committed' is specified, connector runs the initial snapshot in READ COMMITTED isolation level. No long-running locks are taken, so that initial snapshot does not prevent other transactions from updating table rows. Snapshot consistency is not guaranteed.In 'read_uncommitted' mode neither table nor row-level locks are acquired, but connector does not guarantee snapshot consistency.

initial

String

camel.component.debezium-sqlserver.snapshot-select-statement-overrides

This property contains a comma-separated list of fully-qualified tables (DB_NAME.TABLE_NAME) or (SCHEMA_NAME.TABLE_NAME), depending on thespecific connectors . Select statements for the individual tables are specified in further configuration properties, one for each table, identified by the id 'snapshot.select.statement.overrides.DB_NAME.TABLE_NAME' or 'snapshot.select.statement.overrides.SCHEMA_NAME.TABLE_NAME', respectively. The value of those properties is the select statement to use when retrieving data from the specific table during snapshotting. A possible use case for large append-only tables is setting a specific point where to start (resume) snapshotting, in case a previous snapshotting was interrupted.

Time, date, and timestamps can be represented with different kinds of precisions, including:'adaptive' (the default) bases the precision of time, date, and timestamp values on the database column’s precision; 'adaptive_time_microseconds' like 'adaptive' mode, but TIME fields always use microseconds precision;'connect' always represents time, date, and timestamp values using Kafka Connect’s built-in representations for Time, Date, and Timestamp, which uses millisecond precision regardless of the database columns' precision .

adaptive

String

camel.component.debezium-sqlserver.tombstones-on-delete

Whether delete operations should be represented by a delete event and a subsquenttombstone event (true) or only by a delete event (false). Emitting the tombstone event (the default behavior) allows Kafka to completely delete all events pertaining to the given key once the source record got deleted.
