Middleware for PHP Slim framework 3.x to output JSON responses with the correct header. Probably a better way to do this then just simply interrogating the response body, but for a initial test sufficient for my needs.
<?php
/**
* Middleware to set correct header for JSON output.
* Very basic initial version, simply checks the body of the response to see if it is valid JSON.
* If response is not JSON then continues with default settings.
* If response is JSON then header is updated.

Why I was previously not a fan of Apache Kafka

Update, September 2016

OK, you can pretty much ignore what I wrote below this update, because it doesn't really apply anymore.

I wrote this over a year ago, and at the time I had spent a couple of weeks trying to get Kafka 0.8 working with .NET and then Node.js with much frustration and very little success. I was rather angry. It keeps getting linked, though, and just popped up on Hacker News, so here's sort of an update, although I haven't used Kafka at all this year so I don't really have any new information.

In the end, we managed to get things working with a Node.js client, although we continued to have problems, both with our code and with managing a Kafka/Zookeeper cluster generally. What made it worse was that I did not then, and do not now, believe that Kafka was the correct solution for that particular problem at that particular company. What they were trying to achieve could have been done more simply with any number of other messaging systems, with a subscriber reading messages off and writing
