Thanks for write_kafka module. I have actually developed a similar plugin recently and wanted to contribute it soon!
Today I looked at this module to somehow compare and contrast with my code but it is not working with the following config! LoadPlugin write_kafka <Plugin write_kafka> Property "metadata.broker.list" "<our kafka broker url>:9092" <Topic "collectd-kafka-4"> </Topic> </Plugin> Also, if you specify the Format the way that the man page says, you get the following error: collectd(5675,0x7fff7601c310) malloc: *** error for object 0x21: pointer being freed was not allocated *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug Abort trap: 6 I solved this problem by putting the default to Command (added ctx->format = KAFKA_FORMAT_COMMAND;) at line 98. Then, I was able to see that the code is calling rd_kafka_produce() correctly which is great, but I don't see anything written on the Kafka side to my topic! Am I missing anything? I am able to use my own write_kafka to send collectd messages to Kafka, so I am sure about my Kafka configuration. Thanks again for doing this. This is very useful, Babak
