Installation

Add as Composer dependency:

composer require simpod/kafka-bundle

Then add KafkaBundle to Symfony's bundles.php:

use SimPod\KafkaBundle\SimPodKafkaBundle;

return [
    ...
    new SimPodKafkaBundle()
    ...
];

Usage

This package simply makes it easier to integrate https://github.com/arnaud-lb/php-rdkafka with Symfony. For more details how to work with Kafka in PHP, refer to its documentation.

Available console commands:

• bin/console debug:kafka:consumers to list all available consumer groups
• bin/console kafka:consumer:run <consumer name> to run consumer instance

Config:

You can create eg. kafka.yaml file in your config directory with following content:

kafka:
    authentication: '%env(KAFKA_AUTHENTICATION)%'
    bootstrap_servers: '%env(KAFKA_BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS)%'
    client:
        id: 'your-application-name'

• authentication reads env var KAFKA_AUTHENTICATIOn that contains authentication uri (sasl-plain://user:password, or it might be just empty indicating no authentication).
• bootstrap_servers reads env var KAFKA_BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS that contains comma-separated list of bootstrap servers (broker-1.kafka:9092,broker-2.kafka:9092).

If bootstrap_servers isn't set, it defaults to 127.0.0.1:9092

Services

Following services are registered in container and can be DI injected.

Configuration

class: \SimPod\KafkaBundle\Kafka\Configuration

Configuration service allows easy access to all the configuration properties.

$config->set(ConsumerConfig::CLIENT_ID_CONFIG, $this->configuration->getIdWithHostname());

Consuming

There's interface NamedConsumer available. When your consumer implements it, this bundle autoregisters it.

This is example of simple consumer, it can be then run via bin/console kafka:consumer:run consumer1

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace Your\AppNamespace;

use SimPod\Kafka\Clients\Consumer\ConsumerConfig;
use SimPod\Kafka\Clients\Consumer\KafkaConsumer;
use SimPod\KafkaBundle\Kafka\Configuration;
use SimPod\KafkaBundle\Kafka\Clients\Consumer\NamedConsumer;

final class ExampleKafkaConsumer implements NamedConsumer
{
    private Configuration $configuration;

    public function __construct(Configuration $configuration)
    {
        $this->configuration = $configuration;
    }

    public function run(): void
    {
        $kafkaConsumer = new KafkaConsumer($this->getConfig());

        $kafkaConsumer->subscribe(['topic1']);

        while (true) {
            ...
        }
    }
    
    public function getName(): string {
        return 'consumer1';    
    }

    private function getConfig(): ConsumerConfig
    {
        $config = new ConsumerConfig();

        $config->set(ConsumerConfig::BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS_CONFIG, $this->configuration->getBootstrapServers());
        $config->set(ConsumerConfig::ENABLE_AUTO_COMMIT_CONFIG, false);
        $config->set(ConsumerConfig::CLIENT_ID_CONFIG, $this->configuration->getClientIdWithHostname());
        $config->set(ConsumerConfig::AUTO_OFFSET_RESET_CONFIG, 'earliest');
        $config->set(ConsumerConfig::GROUP_ID_CONFIG, 'consumer_group');

        return $config;
    }
}

Development

There is kwn/php-rdkafka-stubs listed as a dev dependency so it properly integrates php-rdkafka extension with IDE.
