This example is a bare-bones click-through application that captures user activity.
This example assumes you have already installed and configured Apache Kafka. See the . The FlavorPicker example also has dependencies on Swing/AWT classes. See the .
Creating a Kafka Producer
FlavorPicker.java sends the choice of Chocolate, Strawberry, or Vanilla to the Kafka broker. This example uses only one column of information, but the mechanism is the same for records of any size.

Creating a Kafka Consumer
FlavorConsumer.java polls the Kafka broker periodically, pulls any new topics added since the last poll, and loads them to HeavyDB. Ideally, each batch should be fairly substantial in size, minimally 1,000 rows or more, so as not to overburden the server.

import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
import java.sql.SQLException;
// Usage:\nFlavorConsumer
public class FlavorConsumer {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
if (args.length < 2) {
System.out.println("Usage:\n\nFlavorConsumer ");
return;
}
// Configure the Kafka Consumer
String topicName = args[0].toString();
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("bootstrap.servers", "localhost:9097"); // Use 9097 so as not
// to collide with
// Heavy Immerse
props.put("group.id", "test");
props.put("enable.auto.commit", "true");
props.put("auto.commit.interval.ms", "1000");
props.put("session.timeout.ms", "30000");
props.put("key.deserializer", "org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringDeserializer");
props.put("value.deserializer", "org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringDeserializer");
KafkaConsumer consumer = new KafkaConsumer(props);
// Subscribe the Kafka Consumer to the topic.
consumer.subscribe(Arrays.asList(topicName));
// print the topic name
System.out.println("Subscribed to topic " + topicName);
String flavorValue = "";
while (true) {
ConsumerRecords records = consumer.poll(1000);
// Create connection and prepared statement objects
Connection conn = null;
PreparedStatement pstmt = null;
try {
// JDBC driver name and database URL
final String JDBC_DRIVER = "com.mapd.jdbc.MapDDriver";
final String DB_URL = "jdbc:heavyai:localhost:6274:heavyai";
// Database credentials
final String USER = "heavyai";
final String PASS = args[1].toString();
// STEP 1: Register JDBC driver
Class.forName(JDBC_DRIVER);
// STEP 2: Open a connection
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL, USER, PASS);
// STEP 3: Prepare a statement template
pstmt = conn.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO flavors VALUES (?)");
// STEP 4: Populate the prepared statement batch
for (ConsumerRecord record : records) {
flavorValue = record.value();
pstmt.setString(1, flavorValue);
pstmt.addBatch();
}
// STEP 5: Execute the batch statement (send records to HeavyDB)
pstmt.executeBatch();
// Commit and close the connection.
conn.commit();
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException se) {
// Handle errors for JDBC

e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
if (pstmt != null) {
pstmt.close();
}
} catch (SQLException se2) {
} // nothing we can do
try {
if (conn != null) {
conn.close();
}
} catch (SQLException se) {
se.printStackTrace();
} // end finally try
} // end try
} // end main
}
}// end FlavorConsumer}
Running the Kafka Click-through Application
To run the application, you need to perform the following tasks:
Compile FlavorConsumer.java and FlavorPicker.java.
Create a table in HeavyDB.
Start the Zookeeper server.
Start the Kafka server.
Start the Kafka consumer.
Start the Kafka producer.
View the results using heavysql and Heavy Immerse.
Compile FlavorConsumer.java and FlavorPicker.java, storing the resulting class files in $HEAVYAI_PATH/SampleCode/kafka-clickthrough/bin.
heavysql> CREATE TABLE flavors (flavor TEXT ENCODING DICT);
Open a new terminal window.
Go to your kafka directory.
Start the Zookeeper server with the following command.
