Go Redis Kafka Demo

A demo application that interacts with Kafka (producer & consumer) + Redis

This application has 2 parts

1. http-server
2. kafka-consumer

The http-server handles 2 routes

1. http://127.0.0.1:8080/produce - this produces an event on kafka of the shape { type: "number", number: 123333 } the kafka-consumer listens to this event and determines whether the number is odd/even and based on that increments (incr) a key in redis
2. http://127.0.0.1:8080/ - gives you statistics like {"requests":12,"even":5,"odd":7} number of events/requests processed so far, number of odd numbers, number of even numbers

To run this project

1. git clone git@gitlab.com:melwyn95/go-redis-kafka-demo.git
2. Install go & setup your development environment
3. Install Redis
4. Install Kafka & make a topic call numbers (you can name the topic something else also; but make sure the name of the topic is correct in start.sh)
5. RUN ./start.sh

the start.sh contains enviroment variables you need to handle it according to you convinence
