Apache Kafka
See our web site for details on the project.
You need to have gradle installed.
First bootstrap and download the wrapper
cd kafka_source_dir
gradle
Now everything else will work
Building a jar and running it
./gradlew jar
Follow instuctions in http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#quickstart
Building source jar
./gradlew srcJar
Building javadocs and scaladocs
./gradlew javadoc
./gradlew javadocJar # builds a jar from the javadocs
./gradlew scaladoc
./gradlew scaladocJar # builds a jar from the scaladocs
./gradlew docsJar # builds both javadoc and scaladoc jar
Running unit tests
./gradlew test
Forcing re-running unit tests w/o code change
./gradlew cleanTest test
Running a particular unit test
./gradlew -Dtest.single=RequestResponseSerializationTest core:test
Running a particular test method within a unit test
./gradlew core:test --tests kafka.api.test.ProducerFailureHandlingTest.testCannotSendToInternalTopic
./gradlew clients:test --tests org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.MetadataTest.testMetadataUpdateWaitTime
Running a particular unit test with log4j output
change the log4j setting in either clients/src/test/resources/log4j.properties or core/src/test/resources/log4j.properties
./gradlew -i -Dtest.single=RequestResponseSerializationTest core:test
Building a binary release gzipped tar ball
./gradlew clean
./gradlew releaseTarGz
The above command will fail if you haven't set up the signing key. To bypass signing the artifact, you can run
./gradlew releaseTarGz -x signArchives
The release file can be found inside ./core/build/distributions/.
Cleaning the build
./gradlew clean
Running a task on a particular version of Scala (either 2.9.1, 2.9.2, 2.10.5 or 2.11.6)
(If building a jar with a version other than 2.10, need to set SCALA_BINARY_VERSION variable or change it in bin/kafka-run-class.sh to run quick start.)
./gradlew -PscalaVersion=2.9.1 jar
./gradlew -PscalaVersion=2.9.1 test
./gradlew -PscalaVersion=2.9.1 releaseTarGz
Running a task for a specific project
This is for 'core', 'contrib:hadoop-consumer', 'contrib:hadoop-producer', 'examples' and 'clients' ./gradlew core:jar ./gradlew core:test
Listing all gradle tasks
./gradlew tasks
Building IDE project
./gradlew eclipse
./gradlew idea
Building the jar for all scala versions and for all projects
./gradlew jarAll
Running unit tests for all scala versions and for all projects
./gradlew testAll
Building a binary release gzipped tar ball for all scala versions
./gradlew releaseTarGzAll
Publishing the jar for all version of Scala and for all projects to maven
./gradlew uploadArchivesAll
Please note for this to work you should create/update ~/.gradle/gradle.properties
and assign the following variables
mavenUrl=
mavenUsername=
mavenPassword=
signing.keyId=
signing.password=
signing.secretKeyRingFile=
Publishing the jars without signing to a local repository
./gradlew -Dorg.gradle.project.skipSigning=true -Dorg.gradle.project.mavenUrl=file://path/to/repo uploadArchivesAll
Building the test jar
./gradlew testJar
Determining how transitive dependencies are added
./gradlew core:dependencies --configuration runtime
Running checkstyle on the java code
./gradlew checkstyleMain checkstyleTest
Running in Vagrant
See vagrant/README.md.
