This repo contains a Kafka Connect Docker container with the prometheus jmx exporter installed.

The docker image provided by this repo builds minimally on top of confluentinc/cp-kafka-connect. The only differences are that we install the prometheus jmx exporter and some third-party connector plugins.

We've found running the jmx exporter in server mode to be problematic, and prometheus recommends running the exporter as a java agent.

The third party plugins included are:

• Debezium Source Connector for MongoDB
• Debezium MongoDB CDC-Compatible Sink Connector

JMX options can be customized using the KAFKA_JMX_OPTS environment variable. The default value set by confluent is:

KAFKA_JMX_OPTS="-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false  -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false "

Prometheus metrics will be exported on port 9400. The jmx metrics that are exported are those that match the patterns in the jmx_exporter.yaml config.

For example usage with the bundled third-party connectors, see the test documentation.
