Kafka::Client - Client for LinkedIn's Kafka
This module is almost completely untested, save that it actually gets messages to send to Kafka. It cannot consume and might set things on fire. It might not be encoded correctly. Patches are welcome!!!
Kafka::Client is a client for LinkedIn's <Kafka|http://sna-projects.com/kafka/>. It was pretty much translated directly from kafka.py that is included in the kafka source code.
use Kafka::Client;
my $kafka = Kafka::Client->new( host => '127.0.0.1' );
my @messages = ( 'One', 'Two', 'Three' ); my $topic = 'test';
$kafka->send( @messages, $topic );
