Overview

This project aims to showcase how to integrate with a Kafka Cluster using Spring Cloud Stream. It exposes a POST endpoint that allows a client to upload a file, which is then sent to a Kafka topic and consumed by a listener

Please note the focus of this project is not the REST API nor the efficiency of it.

Tech Stack

• Spring Boot V2.7
• Java 11
• Spring Cloud Stream Kafka Binder V3

Run

1. Spin locally a Kafka Broker on port 9092
2. Run the producer app and the consumer app
3. Using your favourite REST Client, do POST http://localhost:8080/image and pass a file.
4. Go check the consumer's folder /resources/files, you should find the file saved there.
