Hydra

Build Status codecov Join the chat at https://gitter.im/pluralsight/hydra

The Hydra platform provides a streamlined data streaming experience by abstracting away the underlying implementation, instead providing users a simple REST API.

Hydra Modules

Common

A set of common util-based classes meant to be shared across the entire Hydra ecosystem, including hydra-spark and dispatch modules.

Core

Core, shared traits and classes that define both the ingestion and transport protocols in Hydra. This module is a dependency to any ingestor or transport implementation.

This also includes Avro schema resolution, validation, and management.

Ingest

The ingestion implementation, including HTTP endpoints, actors, communication protocols, registration of ingestors, and a lot of other stuff.

Kafka

A Transport implementation that replicates messages into Kafka.

Building Hydra

Hydra is built using SBT. To build Hydra, run:

sbt clean compile

Docker

Development Environment for Testing

We have a development MSK and Schema Registry Cluster running in the eplur-staging AWS account. Access to this cluster is granted via IAM to the exp_adapt_dvs_set role.

Steps for building locally

  • Create a .env from the example.env template.
  • Update the .env file with your AWS Credentials. Those can be gathered in AWS Identity Center.
  • Use the Makefile to build and deploy Hydra Publish into a local Docker container.

Checking if Hydra is Running

You can test Hydra has started by going to this resource:

http://localhost:8088/health

You should see something like:

{
  "BuildInfo": {
    "builtAtMillis": "1639518050466",
    "name": "hydra-ingest",
    "scalaVersion": "2.12.11",
    "version": "0.11.3.979",
    "sbtVersion": "1.3.13",
    "builtAtString": "2021-12-14 21:40:50.466"
  },
  "ConsumerGroupisActive": {
    "ConsumerGroupName": "v2MetadataConsumer",
    "State": true
  }
}

Available Endpoints

Records Endpoints

Path HTTP Method Description

How to Train Your Hydra

"If you want to make a Kafka topic from scratch, you must first invent the universe." -Carl Sagan

Create & Register a Topic

We are using this topic to test:

{
  "streamType": "Entity",
  "deprecated": false,
  "dataClassification": "InternalUseOnly",
  "contact": {
    "email": "john.doe@email.com"
  },
  "createdDate": "2022-01-25T12:00:00Z",
  "notes": "Here are some notes.",
  "parentSubjects": [],
  "teamName": "team-john-doe",
  "schemas": {
    "key": {
      "type": "record",
      "name": "key",
      "namespace": "",
      "fields": [
        {
          "name": "id",
          "type": {
            "type":"string",
            "logicalType":"uuid"
          },
          "doc":"This is a doc field."
        }
      ]
    },
    "value": {
      "type": "record",
      "name": "val",
      "namespace": "dvs.data_platform.dvs_sandbox",
      "fields": [
        {
          "name": "myValue",
          "type": "string",
          "doc":"It is my value."
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Post it to Hydra

curl -X POST localhost:8088/topics/tech.my-first-topic -d '{
  "streamType": "Entity",
  "deprecated": false,
  "dataClassification": "InternalUseOnly",
  "contact": {
    "email": "john.doe@email.com"
  },
  "createdDate": "2022-01-25T12:00:00Z",
  "notes": "Here are some notes.",
  "parentSubjects": [],
  "teamName": "team-john-doe",
  "schemas": {
    "key": {
      "type": "record",
      "name": "Test2",
      "namespace": "",
      "fields": [
        {
          "name": "id",
          "type": {
            "type":"string",
            "logicalType":"uuid"
          },
          "doc":"This is a doc field."
        }
      ]
    },
    "value": {
      "type": "record",
      "name": "Test2",
      "namespace": "dvs.data_platform.dvs_sandbox",
      "fields": [
        {
          "name": "myValue",
          "type": "string",
          "doc":"It is my value."
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}'

You should see something like this:

OK

Feeding Your Hydra (with HTTP)

 curl -X POST -d '{"key": {"id":"7db11b7a-4560-4a86-b00b-6f380bfb1564"}, "value":{"myValue":"someValue"}}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'  'http://localhost:8088/v2/topics/tech.my-first-topic/records'

A sample Hydra response is:

{"offset":0,"partition":6}

Message Validation

Hydra validates payloads against the underlying schema. For instance:

curl -X POST -d '{"key": {"id":"123"}, "value":{"myValue":"someValue"}}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'  'http://localhost:8088/v2/topics/tech.my-first-topic/records'

Should return:

hydra.avro.convert.StringToGenericRecord$InvalidLogicalTypeError: Invalid logical type. 
Expected UUID but received 123 
[http://schema-registry:8081/subjects/tech.my-first-topic-key/versions/latest/schema]

##But what about v1?

You may have noticed that the JSON above uses "/v2" endpoints. Most /v2 endpoints have /v1 counterparts, but we highly recommend using /v2 as /v1 endpoints are deprecated. If you need to use "/v1" endpoints, simply remove the "/v2" segment.

Online Documentation

We used to highly recommend checking out the project documentation here, but then we forgot about it for two years. We might get around to updating it in the future.

There you can find the "latest" documentation about the Hydra project, including examples, API endpoints, and a lot more info on how to get started.

This README file only contains basic definitions and set up instructions.
