sudo make install
then, compile this module into nginx
git clone https://github.com/brg-liuwei/ngx_kafka_module
# cd /path/to/nginx
./configure --add-module=/path/to/ngx_kafka_module
make
sudo make install
# or, use `sudo make upgrade` instead of `sudo make install`
thirdly, add the code to nginx conf file as follows
http {
# some other configs
kafka;
server {
# some other configs
location = /your/path/topic0/ {
kafka_topic your_topic0;
kafka_broker your_broker_addr0; # eg: localhost:9092
}
location = /your/path/topic1/ {
kafka_topic your_topic1;
kafka_broker your_broker_addr1; # eg: localhost:9092
}
}
}
then, reload your nginx
test:
curl localhost/your/path/topic0/ -d "message send to kafka topic0"
curl localhost/your/path/topic1/ -d "message send to kafka topic1"
