When I run a topology of Storm with KafkaSpout in Heron, the following exception occurs:

And the codes of the topology as follows:
String zkServerHosts = "MY_ZK_IP:2181";
ZkHosts hosts = new ZkHosts(zkServerHosts);
SpoutConfig spoutConfig = new SpoutConfig(hosts, kafkaTopic, "/" + kafkaTopic, UUID.randomUUID().toString());
spoutConfig.scheme = new SchemeAsMultiScheme(new StringScheme());
KafkaSpout kafkaSpout = new KafkaSpout(spoutConfig);
And the location of the NPE is 80 lines of the open method in KafkaSpout class:
public Object getValueAndReset() {
List<PartitionManager> pms = KafkaSpout.this.coordinator.getMyManagedPartitions();
Set<Partition> latestPartitions = new HashSet();
Iterator var3 = pms.iterator();
PartitionManager pm;
while(var3.hasNext()) { // the line of NPE happened
pm = (PartitionManager)var3.next();
latestPartitions.add(pm.getPartition());
}
this.kafkaOffsetMetric.refreshPartitions(latestPartitions);
var3 = pms.iterator();
while(var3.hasNext()) {
pm = (PartitionManager)var3.next();
this.kafkaOffsetMetric.setOffsetData(pm.getPartition(),
pm.getOffsetData());
}
return this.kafkaOffsetMetric.getValueAndReset();
}
I don't know what caused this problem and how to fix it. Any help is grateful.
NEW EDITED: All imports have been pointed to the heron-storm classes, but the NPE still happened.

The Storm based Kafka spout does not work with the native Heron topology API. You will need to use the heron-storm API in the compatible mode (add this dependency to your pom file) to build your topology and interface with the Storm-Kafka spout. It should just be a case of swapping the heron imports for heron-storm imports in your bolts.
Some examples of using the heron-storm api are shown here.
Storm and Heron activate their bolts/spouts in different ways, which can cause issues with Storm only code in native Heron topologies.
