I am trying to read AVRO data from a Kafka topic using Flink 1.0.3.
I just know that this particular Kafka topic is having AVRO encoded message and I am having the AVRO schema file.
My Flink code:
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
StreamExecutionEnvironment env = StreamExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment();
Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.setProperty("bootstrap.servers", "dojo3xxxxx:9092,dojoxxxxx:9092,dojoxxxxx:9092");
properties.setProperty("zookeeper.connect", "dojo3xxxxx:2181,dojoxxxxx:2181,dojoxxxxx:2181");
properties.setProperty("group.id", "Zeeshantest");
AvroDeserializationSchema<Event> avroSchema = new AvroDeserializationSchema<>(Event.class);
FlinkKafkaConsumer08<Event> kafkaConsumer = new FlinkKafkaConsumer08<>("myavrotopic", avroSchema, properties);
DataStream<Event> messageStream = env.addSource(kafkaConsumer);
messageStream.rebalance().print();
env.execute("Flink AVRO KAFKA Test");
}
I have created my Event.java file using the avro tools and schema "rocana.avsc"
java -jar /path/to/avro-tools-1.8.1.jar compile schema rocana.avsc
Here is rocana.avsc file uploaded in github.
AvroDeserializationSchema.java

private transient DatumReader<T> reader;
private transient BinaryDecoder decoder;
public AvroDeserializationSchema(Class<T> avroType) {
this.avroType = avroType;
}
@Override
public T deserialize(byte[] message) {
ensureInitialized();
try {
decoder = DecoderFactory.get().binaryDecoder(message, decoder);
return reader.read(null, decoder);
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}
@Override
public boolean isEndOfStream(T nextElement) {
return false;
}
@Override
public TypeInformation<T> getProducedType() {
return TypeExtractor.getForClass(avroType);
}
private void ensureInitialized() {
if (reader == null) {
if (org.apache.avro.specific.SpecificRecordBase.class.isAssignableFrom(avroType)) {
reader = new SpecificDatumReader<T>(avroType);
} else {
reader = new ReflectDatumReader<T>(avroType);
}
}
}
}
On running my program I am getting the following error:

I think my deserialize code is not correct. Do anyone know what I am doing wrong? Is this the way to read AVRO data from Kafka using Flink or there is a better way around?
Try the below code to deserialize the Avro record:
Schema a; //Your Avro schema
DatumReader<GenericData.Record> reader = new GenericDatumReader<GenericData.Record>(a);
GenericData.Record a = reader.read(null, DecoderFactory.get().binaryDecoder(bytes, null));
Whatever code I posted as per my question works perfectly fine.
Issue was with the data sent to kafka topic, both JSON and AVRO formatted data was sent there. I subscribed to a different Kafka topic where data was only in AVRO and my code worked fine.
