问题描述
当通过Azure Event Hub SDK消费Event Hub中的消息时,必须指定一个Storage Account(存储账号)用于保存 Checkpoint (检查点)。
比如在C#代码中,需要指定Storage Account Connection String 和一个Blob Container的名称。其他语言代码也是一样,都需要指定Storage Account。
private const string ehubNamespaceConnectionString = "<EVENT HUBS NAMESPACE - CONNECTION STRING>"; private const string eventHubName = "<EVENT HUB NAME>"; private const string blobStorageConnectionString = "<AZURE STORAGE CONNECTION STRING>"; private const string blobContainerName = "<BLOB CONTAINER NAME>"; ...... static async Task Main() { // Read from the default consumer group: $Default string consumerGroup = EventHubConsumerClient.DefaultConsumerGroupName; // Create a blob container client that the event processor will use storageClient = new BlobContainerClient(blobStorageConnectionString, blobContainerName); // Create an event processor client to process events in the event hub processor = new EventProcessorClient(storageClient, consumerGroup, ehubNamespaceConnectionString, eventHubName); // Register handlers for processing events and handling errors processor.ProcessEventAsync += ProcessEventHandler; processor.ProcessErrorAsync += ProcessErrorHandler; // Start the processing await processor.StartProcessingAsync(); // Wait for 30 seconds for the events to be processed await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30)); // Stop the processing await processor.StopProcessingAsync(); }
那么,在Storage Account中如何查看Offest 和 Sequence Number的值呢?
解答如下
如上图,在Azure门户页面中,进入当前使用的Storage Account页面:
- 在指定的Container中,SDK会自动创建一个以Event Hub Namespace主机域名为名的Folder
- 然后是Event Hub -> 消费组(默认为 $default) --> Checkpint --> 分区号(从0开始,1,2 ...)
- 在以分区号为名称的Blob的元数据(Metadata)记录了sequencenumber 和 offset的值。
PS: 当删除或修改这个值后,如果重启Event Hub的消费端,这会导致数据从新的OFFSET开始获取。
