TopicManager.changelog_topic

def changelog_topic(topic_name: str,
                    store_name: str,
                    timeout: Optional[float] = None) -> Topic

[VIEW SOURCE]

Performs all the logic necessary to generate a changelog topic based on a

"source topic" (aka input/consumed topic).

Its main goal is to ensure partition counts of the to-be generated changelog match the source topic, and ensure the changelog topic is compacted. Also enforces the serialization type. All Topic objects generated with this are stored on the TopicManager.

If source topic already exists, defers to the existing topic settings, else uses the settings as defined by the Topic (and its defaults) as generated by the TopicManager.

In general, users should NOT need this; an Application knows when/how to generate changelog topics. To turn off changelogs, init an Application with "use_changelog_topics"=False.


Arguments:

  • topic_name: name of consumed topic (app input topic)

    NOTE: normally contain any prefixes added by TopicManager.topic()

  • store_name: name of the store this changelog belongs to (default, rolling10s, etc.)
  • timeout: config lookup timeout (seconds); Default 30


Returns:

Topic object (which is also stored on the TopicManager)



TopicManager.create_topics

def create_topics(topics: List[Topic],
                  timeout: Optional[float] = None,
                  create_timeout: Optional[float] = None)

[VIEW SOURCE]

Creates topics via an explicit list of provided Topics.

Exists as a way to manually specify what topics to create; otherwise, create_all_topics() is generally simpler.


Arguments:

  • topics: list of Topics
  • timeout: creation acknowledge timeout (seconds); Default 30
  • create_timeout: topic finalization timeout (seconds); Default 60



TopicManager.create_all_topics

def create_all_topics(timeout: Optional[float] = None,
                      create_timeout: Optional[float] = None)

[VIEW SOURCE]

A convenience method to create all Topic objects stored on this TopicManager.


Arguments:

  • timeout: creation acknowledge timeout (seconds); Default 30
  • create_timeout: topic finalization timeout (seconds); Default 60



TopicManager.validate_all_topics

def validate_all_topics(timeout: Optional[float] = None)

[VIEW SOURCE]

Validates all topics exist and changelogs have correct topic and rep factor.

Issues are pooled and raised as an Exception once inspections are complete.
