Create a new Java project using your preferred IDE or build tool (e.g., Maven or Gradle).

Add the necessary dependencies to your project's build file for Kafka and Elasticsearch clients.

For Maven, add the following to your `pom.xml`:

```xml

<dependencies>

    <!-- Kafka Client -->

    <dependency>

        <groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId>

        <artifactId>kafka-clients</artifactId>

        <version>YOUR_KAFKA_VERSION</version>

    </dependency>

    <!-- Elasticsearch Client -->

    <dependency>

        <groupId>org.elasticsearch.client</groupId>

        <artifactId>elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client</artifactId>

        <version>YOUR_ELASTICSEARCH_VERSION</version>

    </dependency>

</dependencies>

```

Create an instance of the Elasticsearch high-level REST client to interact with your Elasticsearch cluster.

```java

import org.elasticsearch.client.RestClient;

import org.elasticsearch.client.RestHighLevelClient;

‍

public class ElasticsearchConnector {

    public RestHighLevelClient createClient() {

        return new RestHighLevelClient(

                RestClient.builder(new HttpHost("localhost", 9200, "http"))

        );

    }

}

```

Set up a Kafka producer to send messages to your Kafka topic.

```java

import org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.KafkaProducer;

import org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.ProducerConfig;

import org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.ProducerRecord;

import org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringSerializer;

‍

import java.util.Properties;

‍

public class KafkaDataPublisher {

    public KafkaProducer<String, String> createProducer() {

        Properties props = new Properties();

        props.put(ProducerConfig.BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS_CONFIG, "localhost:9092");

        props.put(ProducerConfig.KEY_SERIALIZER_CLASS_CONFIG, StringSerializer.class.getName());

        props.put(ProducerConfig.VALUE_SERIALIZER_CLASS_CONFIG, StringSerializer.class.getName());

        return new KafkaProducer<>(props);

    }

}

```

Write a method to extract data from Elasticsearch using the search API. You can specify the index and query as needed.

```java

import org.elasticsearch.action.search.SearchRequest;

import org.elasticsearch.action.search.SearchResponse;

import org.elasticsearch.client.RequestOptions;

import org.elasticsearch.index.query.QueryBuilders;

import org.elasticsearch.search.SearchHit;

import org.elasticsearch.search.builder.SearchSourceBuilder;

‍

import java.util.ArrayList;

import java.util.List;

‍

public class ElasticsearchDataExtractor {

    private final RestHighLevelClient client;

‍

    public ElasticsearchDataExtractor(RestHighLevelClient client) {

        this.client = client;

    }

‍

    public List<String> fetchData() throws IOException {

        SearchRequest searchRequest = new SearchRequest("your_index");

        SearchSourceBuilder searchSourceBuilder = new SearchSourceBuilder();

        searchSourceBuilder.query(QueryBuilders.matchAllQuery());

        searchRequest.source(searchSourceBuilder);

‍

        SearchResponse searchResponse = client.search(searchRequest, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);

        List<String> results = new ArrayList<>();

        for (SearchHit hit : searchResponse.getHits().getHits()) {

            results.add(hit.getSourceAsString());

        }

        return results;

    }

}

```

Iterate over the extracted data and publish each record to the Kafka topic.

```java

public class DataMover {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

        // Create Elasticsearch client

        ElasticsearchConnector esConnector = new ElasticsearchConnector();

        RestHighLevelClient esClient = esConnector.createClient();

‍

        // Create Kafka producer

        KafkaDataPublisher kafkaPublisher = new KafkaDataPublisher();

        KafkaProducer<String, String> producer = kafkaPublisher.createProducer();

‍

        // Extract data from Elasticsearch

        ElasticsearchDataExtractor extractor = new ElasticsearchDataExtractor(esClient);

        List<String> data = extractor.fetchData();

‍

        // Publish data to Kafka

        for (String record : data) {

            producer.send(new ProducerRecord<>("your_topic", record));

        }

‍

        // Close resources

        producer.close();

        esClient.close();

    }

}

```

Compile and run your Java application. Monitor both Elasticsearch and Kafka to ensure data is being moved correctly.

Add proper exception handling and logging to your application to manage any errors or issues that arise during the data transfer process.

Depending on the volume of data, you may need to optimize your queries, batch size, and producer settings. You might also consider parallelizing the data extraction and publishing process to handle larger datasets more efficiently.

After successfully moving the data, perform any necessary clean-up, such as closing connections and disposing of resources.

This guide provides a basic framework for moving data from Elasticsearch to Kafka without third-party connectors. Depending on your specific requirements and environment, you may need to adjust configurations, error handling, and performance tuning to suit your use case.
