Spring Cloud Kafka Consumer Properties not working-CodePudding

I have the following application.yml file:

spring:
  application:
    name: test-app
  cloud:
    stream:
      kafka:
        binder:
          consumerProperties:
            value:
              deserializer: org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringDeserializer
          brokers: localhost:9092
          autoCreateTopics: true
          replicationFactor: 1
      bindings:
        listenCloudEvent-in-0:
          destination: com.test.cloudevent
          group: test-app-group
          consumer:
            configuration:
              value:
                deserializer: io.cloudevents.kafka.CloudEventDeserializer
        listenString-in-0:
          destination: com.test.string
          group:  test-app-group
    function:
      definition: listenCloudEvent;listenString

As far as I know, following properties should overrides the default deserializer but it seems it doesnt work.

  consumer:
        configuration:
          value:
            deserializer: io.cloudevents.kafka.CloudEventDeserializer

I am getting the following error for com.test.couldevent topic.

org.springframework.messaging.converter.MessageConversionException: Could not read JSON: Cannot construct instance of io.cloudevents.CloudEvent (no Creators, like default constructor, exist): abstract types either need to be mapped to concrete types, have custom deserializer, or contain additional type information

If I change the default deserializer to event cloud deserializer, then it works but then the other listener brakes.

Here is my listener function:

@Bean
public Consumer<Flux<Message<CloudEvent>>> listenCloudEvent() {
    return inboundMessage -> inboundMessage
            .onErrorStop()
            .doOnNext(message -> log.info("[{}] Message is received.", message.getPayload().getId()))
            .subscribe();
}

I really appreciate if you could help me on this issue. My main aim is having different deserializer for different topics. However, I wasnt able to succeed on it although it is indicated this way to override the default deserializer in spring documentation.

Thank you in advance!

CodePudding user response：

You are missing the kafka. element in the consumer properties. configuration is a kafka-specific property, you are setting a common consumer property.

See https://docs.spring.io/spring-cloud-stream/docs/current/reference/html/spring-cloud-stream-binder-kafka.html#kafka-consumer-properties

The following properties are available for Kafka consumers only and must be prefixed with spring.cloud.stream.kafka.bindings.<channelName>.consumer..

Note ...stream.kafka.bindings..., not ...stream.bindings....
