REST vs event-driven architecture?

I agree that redux was a solution built to solve react issues but conceptually it's just a state management tool which I think can apply to some angular applications. I haven't worked extensively with different angular redux flavors but I have worked a lot with ngrx. I completely agree that it adds an enormous amount of boilerplate code but in certain circumstances that boilerplate becomes a powerful framework of state management. In most applications state can and should be managed in services and alternative persistent storage etc. However in complex applications that rely on pulling from large data sources in real-time and share that data across the application I'd argue that a redux style store is incredibly beneficial. At some point with large applications, storing your state in services just becomes you rewriting the existing functionality of a redux style library. I get that dispatching actions for every little thing can become tedious but I think if you build your store thoughtfully it will benefit you in the end.

If you're brand new to Kafka, be sure to check out this <a id=0 href='https://www.stackchief.com/blog/Kafka%20Architecture%20Explained'>intro to Kafka architecture</a> first.

<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>

<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>

The pom.xml defines the dependencies we need for our Maven build. Notice how we include the dependencies needed for Spring Boot along with those needed for running and testing Kafka.

Note that the jackson-databind dependency is included to account for bugs in older versions of the Spring Kafka library. You may not need to include this depending on which version of Kafka you're using..

	public static void main(String[] args) {

		SpringApplication.run(DemoApplication.class, args);

The DemoApplication.java class runs our Spring Boot application.

Spring Boot automatically configures Kafka via @SpringBootApplication. With this annotation, Spring provides/configures a KafkaAutoConfiguration class for you.

import org.springframework.kafka.annotation.KafkaListener;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;

    public void processMessage(String content){

        System.out.println("Message received: " + content);

The Consumer.java class is what actually listens for messages. Notice how we specify the topics to listen to within the @KafkaListener annotation.

By simply using the annotations provided by the Spring Boot Kafka library, we are able to easily set up a consumer for a given topic.

spring.kafka.bootstrap-servers=localhost:9092

Thanks to auto-configuration, you only need to define a few things in application.properties to configure the consumer. Notice how our app is configured to use Kafka locally.

This example is configured to consume from a local Kafka topic.  You'll need to have Kafka installed and running locally to see messages being consumed from the Spring Boot app.

To start Kafka locally, you need to start both the Zookeeper and Kafka servers locally...

./zookeeper-server-start /usr/local/etc/kafka/zookeeper.properties

This will start the zookeeper server with the default configurations.  Please note the path to your local Kafka install may vary.

./kafka-server-start /usr/local/etc/kafka/server.properties 

This will start the Kafka server with the default configurations.  Please note the path to your local Kafka install may vary.

To test the application consumer, you'll need to produce some messages for the test topic.  To start a Kafka console producer:

./kafka-console-producer --bootstrap-server=localhost:9092 --topic test

This starts a Kafka producer for the test topic. Notice how both the bootstrap-server and topic arguments match what we've defined in our application.properties file.

Once the producer is up and running, you can send a message to the test topic like this:

If everything is working correctly, you should see the message being logged through the Spring application like this:
