Today, I introduce a Spring Boot Kafka Batch Listener Example and demonstrate how to implement Kafka producer with consumer Batch Listener. I make sure that this tutorial is useful with your real projects. Let’ do together.
Spring Boot Kafka Batch Listener Example
Project Setup
Spring Kafka: 2.3.4.RELEASESpring Boot: 2.2.2.RELEASEApache Kafka: kafka_2.13-2.4.0Maven: 3.5
Project Structure
Maven Dependencies
At least, we must have these dependencies: spring-boot-starter, spring-kafka in pom.xml file. Note, you can change spring-kafka version for your own needs.

Configure Spring Kafka Application with application.yml
Some properties that need to be explicitly set in the application.yml file, e.g host, port, topic name:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
spring: kafka: servers: localhost:9092 app: topic: staff: staff.t |
Create Kafka Producer and Consumer
If you want to understand deeply how to create Producer and Consumer with configuration, please the post Spring Boot Kafka Producer Consumer Configuration or You can also create Spring Boot Kafka Producer and Consumer without configuration, let check out the post Spring Boot Apache Kafka Example. Here we reuse Sender and SenderConfig from the post Spring Boot Kafka Producer Consumer Configuration.
Configuring a Batch Listener
We maybe need to do these steps:
- Enable the Batch Listener property of
ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactoryusing the methodsetBatchListener(true). - Create a BatchErrorHandler using the method
setBatchErrorHandler(new BatchLoggingErrorHandler()). You may create your own Batch Error Handler. - Set an upper limit for the batch size by setting the
ConsumerConfig.MAX_POLL_RECORDS_CONFIGto a value that you need. Here we are setting that value to 4.
You can have a look in the full configuration of ReceiverConfig

@EnableKafka @Configuration public class ReceiverConfig { @Value("${spring.kafka.servers}") private String bootstrapServers; @Bean public Map<String, Object> consumerConfigs() { Map<String, Object> props = new HashMap<>(); props.put(ConsumerConfig.BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS_CONFIG, bootstrapServers); props.put(ConsumerConfig.KEY_DESERIALIZER_CLASS_CONFIG, StringDeserializer.class); props.put(ConsumerConfig.VALUE_DESERIALIZER_CLASS_CONFIG, StringDeserializer.class); props.put(ConsumerConfig.GROUP_ID_CONFIG, "batch"); props.put(ConsumerConfig.MAX_POLL_RECORDS_CONFIG, "4"); return props; } @Bean public ConsumerFactory<String, String> consumerFactory() { return new DefaultKafkaConsumerFactory<>(consumerConfigs()); } @Bean public ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactory<String, String> kafkaListenerContainerFactory() { ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactory<String, String> factory = new ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactory<>(); factory.setConsumerFactory(consumerFactory()); factory.setBatchListener(true); factory.getContainerProperties(); factory.setBatchErrorHandler(new BatchLoggingErrorHandler()); return factory; } } |
Receive Kafka Messages using a Batch Listener
We are receiving batch messages so the method receive() must accept a list of messages, and certainly, this method can accept a list of headers and a list of offsets. Let’s have a look Receiver below:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 |
@Service public class Receiver { private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(Receiver.class); @KafkaListener(id = "batch-listener", topics = "${app.topic.batch}") public void receive(@Payload List<String> messages, @Header(KafkaHeaders.RECEIVED_PARTITION_ID) List<Integer> partitions, @Header(KafkaHeaders.OFFSET) List<Long> offsets) { LOG.info("starting to consume batch messages"); // Sender that have sent a total of 9 messages, then it will be consumed by three batches for (int i = 0; i < messages.size(); i++) { LOG.info("received message='{}' with partition-offset='{}'", messages.get(i), partitions.get(i) + "-" + offsets.get(i)); } LOG.info("all messages consumed"); } } |
Spring Boot Application
To demo our Spring Boot Kafka Batch Listener Example then we create a simple Spring Boot Application below.
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 |
@SpringBootApplication public class MySpringKafkaApplication implements CommandLineRunner { public static void main(String[] args) { SpringApplication.run(MySpringKafkaApplication.class, args); } @Autowired private Sender sender; @Override public void run(String... strings) throws Exception { //send all 9 messages for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++){ sender.send("message-" + i); } } } |
Running Spring Boot Application
Running Spring Boot Application normally and check out the output. Just remind that Sender that have sent a total of 9 messages, then Receiver will be consumed by three batches. You will see that in the output below.
