Introduced in version 3.58.0. [tabs] ====== Common:: + -- ```yml # Common config fields, showing default values label: "" schema_registry_encode: url: "" # No default (required) subject: foo # No default (required) refresh_period: 10m ``` -- Advanced:: + -- ```yml # All config fields, showing default values label: "" schema_registry_encode: url: "" # No default (required) subject: foo # No default (required) refresh_period: 10m avro_raw_json: false oauth: enabled: false consumer_key: "" consumer_secret: "" access_token: "" access_token_secret: "" basic_auth: enabled: false username: "" password: "" jwt: enabled: false private_key_file: "" signing_method: "" claims: {} headers: {} tls: skip_cert_verify: false enable_renegotiation: false root_cas: "" root_cas_file: "" client_certs: [] ``` -- ====== Encodes messages automatically from schemas obtains from a https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/schema-registry/index.html[Confluent Schema Registry service^] by polling the service for the latest schema version for target subjects. If a message fails to encode under the schema then it will remain unchanged and the error can be caught using xref:configuration:error_handling.adoc[error handling methods]. Avro, Protobuf and Json schemas are supported, all are capable of expanding from schema references as of v4.22.0. == Avro JSON format By default this processor expects documents formatted as https://avro.apache.org/docs/current/specification/_print/#json-encoding[Avro JSON^] when encoding with Avro schemas. In this format the value of a union is encoded in JSON as follows: - if its type is `null`, then it is encoded as a JSON `null`; - otherwise it is encoded as a JSON object with one name/value pair whose name is the type's name and whose value is the recursively encoded value. For Avro's named types (record, fixed or enum) the user-specified name is used, for other types the type name is used. For example, the union schema `["null","string","Foo"]`, where `Foo` is a record name, would encode: - `null` as `null`; - the string `"a"` as `\{"string": "a"}`; and - a `Foo` instance as `\{"Foo": {...}}`, where `{...}` indicates the JSON encoding of a `Foo` instance. However, it is possible to instead consume documents in https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/linkedin/goavro/v2#NewCodecForStandardJSONFull[standard/raw JSON format^] by setting the field <> to `true`. === Known issues Important! There is an outstanding issue in the https://github.com/linkedin/goavro[avro serializing library^] that Benthos uses which means it https://github.com/linkedin/goavro/issues/252[doesn't encode logical types correctly^]. It's still possible to encode logical types that are in-line with the spec if `avro_raw_json` is set to true, though now of course non-logical types will not be in-line with the spec. == Protobuf format This processor encodes protobuf messages either from any format parsed within Benthos (encoded as JSON by default), or from raw JSON documents, you can read more about JSON mapping of protobuf messages here: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto3#json === Multiple message support When a target subject presents a protobuf schema that contains multiple messages it becomes ambiguous which message definition a given input data should be encoded against. In such scenarios Benthos will attempt to encode the data against each of them and select the first to successfully match against the data, this process currently *ignores all nested message definitions*. In order to speed up this exhaustive search the last known successful message will be attempted first for each subsequent input. We will be considering alternative approaches in future so please https://igiven.com/slack[get in touch^] with thoughts and feedback. == Fields === `url` The base URL of the schema registry service. *Type*: `string` === `subject` The schema subject to derive schemas from. This field supports xref:configuration:interpolation.adoc#bloblang-queries[interpolation functions]. *Type*: `string` ```yml # Examples subject: foo subject: ${! meta("kafka_topic") } ``` === `refresh_period` The period after which a schema is refreshed for each subject, this is done by polling the schema registry service. *Type*: `string` *Default*: `"10m"` ```yml # Examples refresh_period: 60s refresh_period: 1h ``` === `avro_raw_json` Whether messages encoded in Avro format should be parsed as normal JSON ("json that meets the expectations of regular internet json") rather than https://avro.apache.org/docs/current/specification/_print/#json-encoding[Avro JSON^]. If `true` the schema returned from the subject should be parsed as https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/linkedin/goavro/v2#NewCodecForStandardJSONFull[standard json^] instead of as https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/linkedin/goavro/v2#NewCodec[avro json^]. There is a https://github.com/linkedin/goavro/blob/5ec5a5ee7ec82e16e6e2b438d610e1cab2588393/union.go#L224-L249[comment in goavro^], the https://github.com/linkedin/goavro[underlining library used for avro serialization^], that explains in more detail the difference between standard json and avro json. *Type*: `bool` *Default*: `false` Requires version 3.59.0 or newer === `oauth` Allows you to specify open authentication via OAuth version 1. *Type*: `object` Requires version 4.7.0 or newer === `oauth.enabled` Whether to use OAuth version 1 in requests. *Type*: `bool` *Default*: `false` === `oauth.consumer_key` A value used to identify the client to the service provider. *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` === `oauth.consumer_secret` A secret used to establish ownership of the consumer key.

Enable this option if you're seeing the error message `local error: tls: no renegotiation`. *Type*: `bool` *Default*: `false` Requires version 3.45.0 or newer === `tls.root_cas` An optional root certificate authority to use. This is a string, representing a certificate chain from the parent trusted root certificate, to possible intermediate signing certificates, to the host certificate. [CAUTION] ==== This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn't be added to a config directly, read our xref:configuration:secrets.adoc[secrets page for more info]. ==== *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` ```yml # Examples root_cas: |- -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- ... -----END CERTIFICATE----- ``` === `tls.root_cas_file` An optional path of a root certificate authority file to use.

For each certificate either the fields `cert` and `key`, or `cert_file` and `key_file` should be specified, but not both. *Type*: `array` *Default*: `[]` ```yml # Examples client_certs: - cert: foo key: bar client_certs: - cert_file: ./example.pem key_file: ./example.key ``` === `tls.client_certs[].cert` A plain text certificate to use. *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` === `tls.client_certs[].key` A plain text certificate key to use.

The obsolete `pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC` algorithm is not supported for the PKCS#8 format. Because the obsolete pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC algorithm does not authenticate the ciphertext, it is vulnerable to padding oracle attacks that can let an attacker recover the plaintext. [CAUTION] ==== This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn't be added to a config directly, read our xref:configuration:secrets.adoc[secrets page for more info]. ==== *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` ```yml # Examples password: foo password: ${KEY_PASSWORD} ```
