几点说明：(mysql初始化)

a. canal的原理是基于mysql binlog技术，所以这里一定需要开启mysql的binlog写入功能，建议配置binlog模式为row.
针对阿里云RDS账号默认已经有binlog dump权限,不需要任何权限或者binlog设置,可以直接跳过这一步

[mysqld]
log-bin=mysql-bin #添加这一行就ok
binlog-format=ROW #选择row模式
server_id=1 #配置mysql replaction需要定义，不能和canal的slaveId重复

b. canal的原理是模拟自己为mysql slave，所以这里一定需要做为mysql slave的相关权限.

CREATE USER canal IDENTIFIED BY 'canal';  
GRANT SELECT, REPLICATION SLAVE, REPLICATION CLIENT ON *.* TO 'canal'@'%';
-- GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'canal'@'%' ;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

针对已有的账户可直接通过grant

其他场景的使用

基于canal的docker模式快速启动，参考：Docker QuickStart
如何将canal链接aliyun rds，参考：Aliyun RDS QuickStart
启动步骤：

下载canal

直接下载
访问：https://github.com/alibaba/canal/releases ，会列出所有历史的发布版本包下载方式，比如以1.0.17版本为例子：

wget https://github.com/alibaba/canal/releases/download/canal-1.0.17/canal.deployer-1.0.17.tar.gz

自己编译

git clone git@github.com:alibaba/canal.git
cd canal; 
mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip -Denv=release

编译完成后，会在根目录下产生target/canal.deployer-$version.tar.gz

解压缩

mkdir /tmp/canal
tar zxvf canal.deployer-$version.tar.gz  -C /tmp/canal

解压完成后，进入/tmp/canal目录，可以看到如下结构：

drwxr-xr-x 2 jianghang jianghang  136 2013-02-05 21:51 bin
drwxr-xr-x 4 jianghang jianghang  160 2013-02-05 21:51 conf
drwxr-xr-x 2 jianghang jianghang 1.3K 2013-02-05 21:51 lib
drwxr-xr-x 2 jianghang jianghang   48 2013-02-05 21:29 logs

配置修改

应用参数：

vi conf/example/instance.properties

#################################################
## mysql serverId
canal.instance.mysql.slaveId = 1234
 
#position info，需要改成自己的数据库信息
canal.instance.master.address = 127.0.0.1:3306
canal.instance.master.journal.name =
canal.instance.master.position =
canal.instance.master.timestamp =
 
 
#canal.instance.standby.address =
#canal.instance.standby.journal.name =
#canal.instance.standby.position =
#canal.instance.standby.timestamp =
 
 
#username/password，需要改成自己的数据库信息
canal.instance.dbUsername = canal
canal.instance.dbPassword = canal
canal.instance.defaultDatabaseName =
canal.instance.connectionCharset = UTF-8
 
 
#table regex
canal.instance.filter.regex = ._\.._
 
 
#################################################

说明：

canal.instance.connectionCharset 代表数据库的编码方式对应到java中的编码类型，比如UTF-8，GBK , ISO-8859-1

准备启动

sh bin/startup.sh

查看日志

vi logs/canal/canal.log
