Klaw

Klaw is fully opensource. 🥳

Klaw is a self-service Apache Kafka® Topic Management/Governance tool/portal. It is a web application which automates the process of creating and browsing Apache Kafka topics, acls, avro schemas, connectors by introducing roles/authorizations to users of various teams of an organization.

With several downloads every week, many more companies which did not adopt a solution, can happily move away from managing Apache Kafka configs in excelsheets, confluence, wiki pages, git etc.

Built With

  • Bootstrap UI, Angular, Javascript, HTML, CSS
  • Maven - Dependency Management
  • Java (Jdk 17), Spring boot 3, Spring security, SQL, Apache Kafka Admin client

Install

Manual

mvn clean install

Optional step : For new React UI assets, make sure pnpm is pre installed which is required to build coral assets.

Builds two artifacts core/target/klaw-.jar and cluster-api/target/cluster-api-.jar

and follow steps defined at https://klaw-project.io/docs or run the binaries like below

java -jar core/target/klaw-.jar

java -jar cluster-api/target/cluster-api-.jar --spring.config.location=cluster-api/target/classes/application.properties

With make

  1. Clone this repo containing two maven modules (core and cluster-api) : git clone git@github.com:aiven/klaw.git
  2. Run make to install dependencies and setup both Klaw Core and the Klaw-Cluster-Api
  3. [Optional] edit any configs using make edit-core-config for Klaw Core or make edit-cluster-api-config for Klaw-Cluster-API
  4. To run, you can use make run-core and make run-cluster-api in different terminal windows or you can run make -j2 run-core run-cluster-api to execute both (NOTE: this will mix output and make debugging harder)

With docker

Dockerhub

Each official release is available on docker in the two repositories. The klaw-core docker hub page contains an example docker-compose file which will help download and deploy Klaw. The cluster-api can also be found separately on docker hub.

Locally

This project also has the ability to build and deploy local docker images using scripts provided in Klaw/docker-scripts .
