Introduction

Dafda is a small Kafka client library for .NET that provides some high-level conveniences to allow setting up producers and consumers in a consistent manner.

Features

• Purpose built for Kafka alone.
• Built on top of Confluent.Kafka.
• Built with .NET Core's configuration, logging, & dependency injection in mind.
• Supports Kafka configuration from multiple sources (e.g. environment variables).
• Easy ("plug-and-play") registration of consumer and producer messages.
• Default (configurable) JSON message serialization/deserialization.
• Supports multiple typed producers akin to HttpClient factories.
• Consumer messages are consumed in the background using hosted services.
• Multiple consumers supported, which can be configured independently.
• Extendable Outbox pattern implementation.
