Connect to broker using SSL

[piequi]

Hi there,

Your exporter is just the one I need, it exposes just the right thing ! My only concern is that I need to connect to the broker using SSL...

When I connect to the broker using kafka-consumer-groups.sh tool, I specify the following variables in a separated properties file and use the --command-config flag

security.protocol=SSL
ssl.keystore.location=/etc/kafka/keystore/keystore.jks
ssl.keystore.password=xxx
ssl.truststore.location=/etc/kafka/keystore/truststore.jks
ssl.truststore.password=xxx

In the sarama/client_tls_test.go they use something like :

config := NewConfig()
config.Net.TLS.Enable = true
config.Net.TLS.Config = clientConfig

With clientConfig being a GO TLS config (as far as I understand)...

Would there be a way to configure those properties in your exporter to establish a SSL connection ?

Thanks a lot

Hey there, from a quick look at the docs I'm not sure that you can read Java keystores in Go without additional libraries such as https://github.com/pavel-v-chernykh/keystore-go. If you would like that support, it would seem best for you to fork the project. All the best!

Hi, We actually create keystore and trusstore using crt and key files. I'll try to find a way to create that TLSConfig correctly using those files. Thanks
