Producer

KP exposes a producer that can produce avro formatted messages, this ensures backwards compatibility through schema registry.

tip

Initializing a producer also publishes the schema to schema registry, this allows you to fail the startup of your application if the schema has a breaking change.

Example

The following example sends a message to a Kafka topic if the type UserLoggedIn is backwards compatiable.

tip

Please check this page for detailed configuration option

package main

import (
"context"
"github.com/honestbank/kp/v2/producer"
)

type UserLoggedIn struct {
UserID string `avro:"user_id"`
}

func main() {
p, err := producer.New[UserLoggedIn]("topic-name", getConfig())
defer p.Flush()
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
err = p.Produce(context.Background(), UserLoggedIn{})
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
}

func getConfig() any {
return nil // return your config
}
