AWS DynamoDB Sink connector

Objective

Quickly test AWS DynamoDB connector.

AWS Setup

• Make sure you have an AWS account.
• Set up AWS Credentials

This project assumes ~/.aws/credentials is set, see docker-compose.ymlfile for connect:

    connect:
    <snip>
    volumes:
        - $HOME/.aws/credentials:/root/.aws/credentials:ro

How to run

Simply run:

$ ./dynamodb.sh

Details of what the script is doing

Sending messages to topic topic1

$ seq -f "{\"f1\": \"value%g\"}" 10 | docker exec -i connect kafka-avro-console-producer --broker-list broker:9092 --property schema.registry.url=http://schema-registry:8081 --topic topic1 --property value.schema='{"type":"record","name":"myrecord","fields":[{"name":"f1","type":"string"}]}'

Creating AWS DynamoDB Sink connector

$ curl -X PUT \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     --data '{
               "connector.class": "io.confluent.connect.aws.dynamodb.DynamoDbSinkConnector",
                    "tasks.max": "1",
                    "topics": "topic1",
                    "aws.dynamodb.region": "us-east-1",
                    "aws.dynamodb.endpoint": "https://dynamodb.us-east-1.amazonaws.com",

                    "confluent.topic.replication.factor": "1"
          }' \

Verify data is in DynamoDB

$ aws dynamodb scan --table-name topic1 --region us-east-1
