Apache Camel Kafka Connector 0.5.0 has just been released.
This is based on the non-LTS release of Apache Camel 3.5.0, this means we will not provide patch releases, but use the release as-is.
This release introduce bug fixes, improvements and new connectors obviously
The new connectors introduced in this release are the following:
Users are now able to specify multiple topics as target for the source connector configuration. This field needs a comma-separated list of topics.
The documentation of each connector (source/sink or both) now contains reference to the following information
On the Archetypes side: the archetype provided to extend the current connectors is now able to use a parameter to specify what connector you want to extend. More information available at Camel-Kafka-connector archetype documentation.
We added also a troubleshooting section in our documentation, to be able to debug and use the connectors in the best way possible.
Thanks to our users we found out we could improve the performance of Source connectors: more details at https://github.com/apache/camel-kafka-connector/issues/414
We added a bunch of new examples to the camel-kafka-connector-examples repository
We are already working on the next release based on the upcoming 3.6.0 Camel release: we‘ll add new connectors, we’ll improve the user experience and we'll focus on improving the codebase and introducing new features.
