Contributing to Confluent Hub¶

Confluent Hub welcomes submissions from all developers of components within the Apache Kafka® and Confluent Platform ecosystems.

The component contribution instructions outlined here are for community members who would like their projects to be hosted on Confluent Hub. If you are a participant in Confluent’s Partner Program and would like to submit your product to Confluent Hub, contact your Confluent representative for details and benefits.

Legal Requirements for Community Submissions¶

Any components in Confluent Hub that are labeled as open source must be licensed under one of the umbrella licenses that enforces royalty- and restriction-free licensing, including Apache 2.0.

Technical Requirements for Submissions¶

You must submit components in the component archive format. Improperly-packaged components will be rejected.

Verifying your Submission’s Authenticity¶

If you would like to verify the authenticity of your component, you may sign it (via something like gpg --detach-sign --armor) and send us the corresponding ASC file as part of your submission.

Submitting a Component¶

To submit a component, email the component archive (and optionally the corresponding ASC file) to confluent-hub@confluent.io, either as attachments or via cloud storage such as Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Google Drive, or Dropbox. By submitting a component, you agree to the Confluent Hub terms of use.
