Cast numeric fields with kafka connect and table.whitelist

I have created a source and a sink connector for kafka connect Confluent 5.0, to push two sqlserver tables to my datalake



Here is my SQLServer table schema :



CREATE TABLE MYBASE.dbo.TABLE1 (
id_field int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
my_numericfield numeric(24,6) NULL,
time_field smalldatetime NULL,
CONSTRAINT PK_CBMARQ_F_COMPTEGA PRIMARY KEY (id_field)
) GO


My Cassandra schema :



create table TEST-TABLE1(my_numericfield decimal, id_field int, time_field timestamp, PRIMARY KEY (id_field));


Here is the source configuration, with a whitelist parameter :



{
"config":
{
"connector.class": "io.confluent.connect.jdbc.JdbcSourceConnector",
"connection.url": "jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;database=MYBASE",
"connection.user": "admin",
"connection.password": "password",
"table.whitelist": "TABLE1, TABLE2",
"mode": "timestamp+incrementing",
"timestamp.column.name": "time_field",
"incrementing.column.name": "id_field",
"validate.non.null": "false",
"topic.prefix": "TEST-",
"tasks.max": "8",
"numeric.mapping":"best_fit"
},
"name": "sqlserver-MYBASE-test"
}


Here is my sink connector :



{
"name": "s3-sink-MYBASE",
"config":
{
"topics": "TEST-TABLE1, TEST_TABLE2",
"topics.dir": "DATABASE_FULL",
"s3.part.size": 5242880,
"storage.class": "io.confluent.connect.s3.storage.S3Storage",
"tasks.max": 8,
"schema.compatibility": "NONE",
"s3.region": "eu-central-1",
"schema.generator.class": "io.confluent.connect.storage.hive.schema.DefaultSchemaGenerator",
"connector.class": "io.confluent.connect.s3.S3SinkConnector",
"partitioner.class": "io.confluent.connect.storage.partitioner.DefaultPartitioner",
"format.class": "io.confluent.connect.s3.format.avro.AvroFormat",
"s3.bucket.name": "mydatalake",
"flush.size": 1,
"transforms":"InsertSourceDetails",
"transforms.InsertSourceDetails.type":"org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.InsertField$Value",
"transforms.InsertSourceDetails.static.field":"DATABASE",
"transforms.InsertSourceDetails.static.value":"MYBASE"
}
}


The problem is that some fields are typed NUMERIC in sqlserver, and kafka transforms them in BINARY when arrived in the datalake



Here is the schema_registry result :



{"type": "record",
"name": "TEST-TABLE1",
"fields": [
{
"name": "my_numericfield",
"type": [
"null",
{
"type": "bytes",
"scale": 6,
"precision": 64,
"connect.version": 1,
"connect.parameters": {
"scale": "6"
},
"connect.name": "org.apache.kafka.connect.data.Decimal",
"logicalType": "decimal"
}
],
"default": null
},
{
"name": "id_field",
"type": "int"
},
{
"name": "cbCreateur",
"type": [
"null",
"string"
],
"default": null
},
{
"name": "time_field",
"type": [

"connect.name": "org.apache.kafka.connect.data.Timestamp",

I'm trying to cast the fields on the fly to match a numeric type (i.e. float), but i can't find a way to do it without knowing the field names in advance



With the whitelist parameter, the connector process the two tables without field description in the connector configuration



Is there a way to do the cast for all NUMERIC fields on the fly ?



Thanks for your help

  • All transforns are possible with all other settings, but it might be best to handle this with a Spark UDF, similar to code Alex showed (not sure the Python equivalent to BigDecimal would be though)

I'm trying to cast the fields on the fly to match a numeric type (i.e. float), but i can't find a way to do it without knowing the field names in advance



With the whitelist parameter, the connector process the two tables without field description in the connector configuration



Is there a way to do the cast for all NUMERIC fields on the fly ?



Thanks for your help

  • Thanks for the link. I was looking for something like org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.Cast$Key, but i don't know if it is possible with the use of table.whitelist (without knowing field names)

  • All transforns are possible with all other settings, but it might be best to handle this with a Spark UDF, similar to code Alex showed (not sure the Python equivalent to BigDecimal would be though)

  • I tried "transforms":"Cast", "transforms.Cast.type":"org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.Cast$Value", "transforms.Cast.spec":"my_numericfield:float64" but the source connector have failed with org.apache.kafka.connect.errors.ConnectException: Tolerance exceeded in error handler at [...] at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:748) Caused by: org.apache.kafka.connect.errors.DataException: Unexpected type in Cast transformation: BYTES
