=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module is not intended to be used by the end user.

L<Kafka::Message|Kafka::Message> class implements API for L<Kafka|Kafka> message.

C<fetch> method of the L<Consumer|Kafka::Consumer> client returns reference to an array of objects of this class.

The main features of the C<Kafka::Message> class are:

=over 3

=item *

Represents Apache Kafka Message structure. Description of the structure
is available at L<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/A+Guide+To+The+Kafka+Protocol#AGuideToTheKafkaProtocol-Messagesets>

=back

=head2 CONSTRUCTOR

=head3 C<new ( \%arg )>

Creates a new C<Kafka::Message> object.
C<new()> takes an argument - HASH reference with the message attributes corresponding to
L<accessors|/METHODS>.

=head2 METHODS

=head3 C<payload>

A simple message received from the Apache Kafka server.

=head3 C<key>

The key is an optional message key that was used for partition assignment.
The key can be an empty string.

=head3 Timestamp

Integer of BigInt on 32 bits platforms: the message timestamp ( might be -1 if
the message has no timestamp). Requires Kafka version > 0.10.0 and timestamp
enabled in the topic messages format.

=head3 C<valid>

Boolean value: indicates whether received message is valid or not.

=head3 C<error>

A description why message is invalid.

=head3 C<offset>

The offset of the message in the Apache Kafka server.

=head3 C<next_offset>

The offset of the next message in the Apache Kafka server.

=head3 C<Attributes>

This holds metadata attributes about the message.
The lowest 2 bits contain the compression codec used for the message.
The other bits are currently unused.

=head3 C<HighwaterMarkOffset>

The offset at the end of the log for this partition.
This can be used by the client to determine how many messages behind the end of the log they are.

=head3 C<MagicByte>

This is version id used to allow backwards compatible evolution of the message binary format.

=head1 DIAGNOSTICS

In order to achieve better performance, constructor of this module does not perform validation of
arguments.

=head1 SEE ALSO

The basic operation of the Kafka package modules:

L<Kafka|Kafka> - constants and messages used by the Kafka package modules.

L<Kafka::Connection|Kafka::Connection> - interface to connect to a Kafka cluster.

L<Kafka::Producer|Kafka::Producer> - interface for producing client.

L<Kafka::Consumer|Kafka::Consumer> - interface for consuming client.

L<Kafka::Message|Kafka::Message> - interface to access Kafka message
properties.

L<Kafka::Int64|Kafka::Int64> - functions to work with 64 bit elements of the
protocol on 32 bit systems.

L<Kafka::Protocol|Kafka::Protocol> - functions to process messages in the
Apache Kafka's Protocol.

L<Kafka::IO|Kafka::IO> - low-level interface for communication with Kafka server.

L<Kafka::Exceptions|Kafka::Exceptions> - module designated to handle Kafka exceptions.

L<Kafka::Internals|Kafka::Internals> - internal constants and functions used
by several package modules.
