Archetypes

There are scenarios in Camel-Kafka-connector and in the Kafka Connect world in general, where an end users needs to extend a connector by adding, for example, a converter or a transformer (or in the camel-kafka-connector case an aggregator).

In camel-kafka-connector we provide the camel-kafka-connector-extensible-archetype for this purpose.

You can create a camel-kafka-connector project ready to be extended.

You can do that through the following command.

mvn arch': mvn archetype:generate  -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.camel.kafkaconnector.archetypes  -DarchetypeArtifactId=camel-kafka-connector-extensible-archetype  -DarchetypeVersion=0.4.1-SNAPSHOT

In the pom of the created project you have to add the camel-kafka-connector you want to extend (in the example we want to extend the aws2-s3 connector).

Now, you are able to add whatever you need in the project, at the end you’ll need just to build and you’ll get a zipped or tar.gz connector.
