They sit in a Kafka topic, a NATS stream or a Redis stream, and until now getting them through Inorderly meant a script in front of it and another one behind. That works until the run gets killed half way, and then nobody can say which lines made it out.</p> <p>Inorderly 0.2 talks to the brokers itself. <code>-in</code> and <code>-out</code> take a URL as well as a file: <code>kafka://</code>, <code>nats://</code> or <code>redis://</code>, with TLS and passwords. The clients are written against Go&rsquo;s standard library, so it&rsquo;s still one binary with no dependencies, and there are no consumer groups to set up. Inorderly keeps where it got to in each input in its own checkpoint.</p>
