Hi All
I am first time here, and not a developer. I need help with a very basic flow
I am successfully receiving data from IoT gateway via MQTT broker, i am able to filter and prepared dashboard with my data from BLE sensors.
Now i want to publish data received at MQTT broker to Kafka bus
I am using KAFKA manager, but somehow i am not able to publish the data to Kafka, its errors or invalid topic or randomly retrying.
Kafka is also working fine as i can inject timestamp successfully and can consume also in Node-Red
Issue is somehow with the data format i am writing to Kafka producer
While I'd love to give you an answer, you haven't given much to go on. Do you realize there are 15 nodes with KAFKA in the name?
When your looking for help it's a good idea to remember the person answering your question has no idea what type of device your node-red is running on, what version you are using, what nodes you are using, what the error you are getting and might not even know what Kafka is (which is true in my case).
So (incase someone else can help you ) please answer the following
what version of Node-RED and node.js are you using (see the startup log)
what Kafka node are you using (full name i.e. node-red-contrib-?????)
what device is NR running on? What os?
what error are you seeing?
where is the Kafka API documentation?
are you accessing an external Kafka service?
And it might be helpful to provide your flow. (in order to make code more readable and importable it is important to surround your code with three backticks ``` like this ```
You can edit and correct your post by clicking the pencil icon.
You might want to put a catch node connected to a debug node (set to display the complete msg object) on the tab with your flow, it might provide more information.
Hopefully with all that someone will be able to guide you to a solution.
