启动一个canal服务

QuickStart

初始化Mysql

a. 开启mysql的binlog写入功能，建议配置binlog模式为row
my.cnf文件

[mysqld]
log-bin=mysql-bin #添加这一行就ok
binlog-format=ROW #选择row模式
server_id=1 #配置mysql replaction需要定义，不能和canal的slaveId重复

b. 为canal配置 mysql slave的相关权限

CREATE USER canal IDENTIFIED BY ‘canal’;
GRANT SELECT, REPLICATION SLAVE, REPLICATION CLIENT ON . TO ‘canal’@’%’;
– GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON . TO ‘canal’@’%’ ;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

启动步骤

以1.0.17版本为例子

1. 下载canal

可以直接下载 https://github.com/alibaba/canal/releases

也可以自己编译

git clone git@github.com:alibaba/canal.git
cd canal;
mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip -Denv=release

编译完成后，会在根目录下产生target/canal.deployer-$version.tar.gz
2. 解压缩

mkdir /tmp/canal
tar zxvf canal.deployer-$version.tar.gz -C /tmp/canal

解压完成后，进入/tmp/canal目录，可以看到如下结构：

drwxr-xr-x 2 jianghang jianghang 136 2013-02-05 21:51 bin
drwxr-xr-x 4 jianghang jianghang 160 2013-02-05 21:51 conf
drwxr-xr-x 2 jianghang jianghang 1.3K 2013-02-05 21:51 lib
drwxr-xr-x 2 jianghang jianghang 48 2013-02-05 21:29 logs

3. 配置修改
   应用参数：

vi conf/example/instance.properties

#################################################
## mysql serverId
canal.instance.mysql.slaveId = 1234
#position info，需要改成自己的数据库信息
canal.instance.master.address = 127.0.0.1:3306
canal.instance.master.journal.name =
canal.instance.master.position =
canal.instance.master.timestamp =

#canal.instance.standby.address =
#canal.instance.standby.journal.name =
#canal.instance.standby.position =
#canal.instance.standby.timestamp =

#username/password，需要改成自己的数据库信息
canal.instance.dbUsername = canal

canal.instance.dbPassword = canal
canal.instance.defaultDatabaseName =
canal.instance.connectionCharset = UTF-8

#table regex
canal.instance.filter.regex = .\..

#################################################

说明：

• canal.instance.connectionCharset 代表数据库的编码方式对应到java中的编码类型，比如UTF-8，GBK , ISO-8859-1
• 如果系统是1个cpu，需要将canal.instance.parser.parallel设置为false

4. 准备启动

sh bin/startup.sh

2013-02-05 22:45:27.967 [main] INFO  com.alibaba.otter.canal.deployer.CanalLauncher - ## start the canal server.
2013-02-05 22:45:28.113 [main] INFO  com.alibaba.otter.canal.deployer.CanalController - ## start the canal server[10.1.29.120:11111]
2013-02-05 22:45:28.210 [main] INFO  com.alibaba.otter.canal.deployer.CanalLauncher - ## the canal server is running now ......

具体instance的日志：

vi logs/example/example.log

6. 关闭

sh bin/stop.sh
