Well I guess there is one: https://github.com/dhanuka84/kafka-connect-tcp
Maybe you can use or build on top of that.

I don't remember seeing one. There is no reason not to write one (let us
know if you do, so we can put it on the connector hub!).
Few things:
1. Connectors that listen on sockets typically run in stand-alone mode, so
they can tied to a specific machine (in distributed mode, connectors can
move around).
2. Why do you need a connector? Why not just use Kafka producer to send
protobuf directly to Kafka?

Hello All,
I'd appreciate your help with the following questions.
1) Is there kafka connect for listening to tcp sockets?
2) If, can the messages be in protobuf, with each messaged prefixed with
the length of the message?
thanks
Clay
