In that project the protobuf https://github.com/stealthly/f2k/blob/master/src/main/proto/FileType.proto is compiled/generated in the gradle task using the plugin https://github.com/stealthly/f2k/blob/master/build.gradle#L17
You need to have protobuf https://github.com/google/protobuf/ installed and have it setup for your environment appropriately (see protoBuf {} gradle task in build.gradle https://github.com/stealthly/f2k/blob/master/build.gradle#L19-L24 ) I left the issue you created on github open so we can get around to updating the README and adding a vagrant up implementation so it works right from the repo better without having to-do much local for others so they don't bump into this and then work around it locally by installing protobuf. /******************************************* Joe Stein Founder, Principal Consultant Big Data Open Source Security LLC http://www.stealth.ly Twitter: @allthingshadoop <http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop> ********************************************/ On Sun, Dec 28, 2014 at 2:56 AM, kishore kumar <akishore...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Joe, > > I am cloned this repo with > > git clone https://github.com/stealthly/f2k.git > > cd f2k > > when I run . > #./gradlew clean fatJar > > the error is "Execution failed for task ':compileProto'." > > when I run with --debug option it gives the info > > Gradle user home: /root/.gradle > Current dir: /root/f2k > java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/usr/bin/protoc" (in directory > "/root/f2k"): error=2, No such file or directory > > but when I run from /root > > ./f2k/gradlew clean fatJar --stacktrace > > the error is "Task 'clean' not found in root project 'root'." > > Please help me how to build this. > > Thanks. > > On Sun, Dec 14, 2014 at 12:53 PM, Joe Stein <joe.st...@stealth.ly> wrote: > > > Here is a non-production example of a file load to Kafka using Scala > > > > > https://github.com/stealthly/f2k/blob/master/src/main/scala/ly/stealth/f2k/KafkaUploader.scala > > > > > > If you wanted to convert that to javacode the Scala compiler does that > for > > you :) and makes it importable as jar to your java program, or you can > use > > as reference and rewrite it in Java. > > > > /******************************************* > > Joe Stein > > Founder, Principal Consultant > > Big Data Open Source Security LLC > > http://www.stealth.ly > > Twitter: @allthingshadoop <http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop> > > ********************************************/ > > > > On Sun, Dec 14, 2014 at 1:39 AM, kishore kumar <akishore...@gmail.com> > > wrote: > > > > > > HI Experts, > > > > > > I want to load csv files to kafka, anybody help me to write javacode > for > > > this? > > > > > > -- > > > Thanks, > > > Kishore. > > > > > > > > > -- > Thanks, > Kishore. >
