Hazelcast IMap TTL Expiry

How to invoke a method to sync the data to some DB or Kafka once the TTL set is expired during the put method of IMap class.

eg:IMap.put(key,value,TTL,TimeUnit.SECONDS);

if the above TTL is set to like 10 seconds i must call some store or some mechanism where i could sync that key and value to DB or Kafka in real time. As of now when i tried the store method it is immediately calling the method instead of 10 seconds wait time.

You may set an EntryExpiredListener to your map config.

It feeds on two sources of expiration based eviction, they are max-idle-seconds and time-to-live-seconds.

Example Listener class:

@Slf4j
public class MyExpiredEntryListener implements EntryExpiredListener<String, String>, MapListener {

    @Override
    public void entryExpired(EntryEvent<String, String> event) {
        log.info("entry Expired {}", event);
    }
}

You can add this config via programmatically or you may set mapconfig via xml config file.

Example usage:

public static void main(String[] args) {
   Config config = new Config();

   MapConfig mapConfig = config.getMapConfig("myMap");
   mapConfig.setTimeToLiveSeconds(10);
   mapConfig.setEvictionPolicy(EvictionPolicy.RANDOM);

   HazelcastInstance hz = Hazelcast.newHazelcastInstance(config);

   IMap<String, String> map = hz.getMap("myMap");
   map.addEntryListener(new MyExpiredEntryListener(), true);
   for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
        String uuid = UUID.randomUUID().toString();
        map.put(uuid, uuid);
   }
}

You will see the logs like below when running this implementation.

entry Expired EntryEvent{entryEventType=EXPIRED, member=Member [192.168.1.1]:5701 - ca76c6d8-abe0-4efe-a6a6-24330657675b this, name='myMap', key=70ee594c-ffea-4584-aefe-1148b9fcdf9f, oldValue=70ee594c-ffea-4584-aefe-1148b9fcdf9f, value=null, mergingValue=null}

Also, you can use other entry listeners according to your requirements.
