Subclass of StreamsBootstrap.

Usage

Configures a streams-bootstrap Kafka producer app

Configuration

pipeline.yaml
# Holds configuration to use as values for the streams bootstrap producer-app Helm
# chart.
# More documentation on ProducerApp:
# https://github.com/bakdata/streams-bootstrap

  name: producer-app # required
  # Pipeline prefix that will prefix every component name. If you wish to not
  # have any prefix you can specify an empty string.
  prefix: ${pipeline.name}-
  # from: # While the producer-app does inherit from kafka-app, it does not need a
  # `from` section, hence it does not support it.
  # Topic(s) into which the component will write output
  to:
    topics:
      ${pipeline.name}-output-topic:
        type: output # Implied when role is NOT specified
      ${pipeline.name}-extra-topic:
        role: topic-role # Implies `type` to be extra; Will throw an error if `type` is defined
      ${pipeline.name}-error-topic:
        type: error
        # Currently KPOps supports Avro and JSON schemas.
