# Introduction
[Documentation](https://jcustenborder.github.io/kafka-connect-documentation/projects/kafka-connect-transform-common) | [Confluent Hub](https://www.confluent.io/hub/jcustenborder/kafka-connect-transform-common)

This project contains common transformations for every day use cases with Kafka Connect.

# Installation

## Confluent Hub

The following command can be used to install the plugin directly from the Confluent Hub using the
[Confluent Hub Client](https://docs.confluent.io/current/connect/managing/confluent-hub/client.html).

```bash
confluent-hub install jcustenborder/kafka-connect-transform-common:latest
```

## Manually

The zip file that is deployed to the [Confluent Hub](https://www.confluent.io/hub/jcustenborder/kafka-connect-transform-common) is available under
`target/components/packages/`. You can manually extract this zip file which includes all dependencies. All the dependencies
that are required to deploy the plugin are under `target/kafka-connect-target` as well. Make sure that you include all the dependencies that are required
to run the plugin.

1. Create a directory under the `plugin.path` on your Connect worker.
2. Copy all of the dependencies under the newly created subdirectory.
3. Restart the Connect worker.
