Documentation

Overview

Package pubsub provides an easy and portable way to interact with publish/subscribe systems. Subpackages contain driver implementations of pubsub for supported services

See https://gocloud.dev/howto/pubsub/ for a detailed how-to guide.

At-most-once and At-least-once Delivery

The semantics of message delivery vary across PubSub services. Some services guarantee that messages received by subscribers but not acknowledged are delivered again (at-least-once semantics). In others, a message will be delivered only once, if it is delivered at all (at-most-once semantics). Some services support both modes via options.

This package accommodates both kinds of systems, but application developers should think carefully about which kind of semantics the application needs. Even though the application code may look similar, system-level characteristics are quite different. See the driver package documentation for more information about message delivery semantics.

After receiving a Message via Subscription.Receive:

  • Always call Message.Ack or Message.Nack after processing the message.
  • For some drivers, Ack will be a no-op.
  • For some drivers, Nack is not supported and will panic; you can call Message.Nackable to see.

OpenCensus Integration

OpenCensus supports tracing and metric collection for multiple languages and backend providers. See https://opencensus.io.

This API collects OpenCensus traces and metrics for the following methods:

  • Topic.Send
  • Topic.Shutdown
  • Subscription.Receive
  • Subscription.Shutdown
  • The internal driver methods SendBatch, SendAcks and ReceiveBatch.

All trace and metric names begin with the package import path. The traces add the method name. For example, "gocloud.dev/pubsub/Topic.Send". The metrics are "completed_calls", a count of completed method calls by driver, method and status (error code); and "latency", a distribution of method latency by driver and method. For example, "gocloud.dev/pubsub/latency".

To enable trace collection in your application, see "Configure Exporter" at https://opencensus.io/quickstart/go/tracing. To enable metric collection in your application, see "Exporting stats" at https://opencensus.io/quickstart/go/metrics.

Types

type Message

type Message struct {
	// LoggableID will be set to an opaque message identifer for
	// received messages, useful for debug logging. No assumptions should
	// be made about the content.
	LoggableID string

	// Body contains the content of the message.
	Body []byte

	// Metadata has key/value metadata for the message.
	//
	// When sending a message, set any key/value pairs you want associated with
	// the message. It is acceptable for Metadata to be nil.
	// Note that some services limit the number of key/value pairs per message.
	//
	// When receiving a message, Metadata will be nil if the message has no
	// associated metadata.
	Metadata map[string]string

	// BeforeSend is a callback used when sending a message. It will always be
	// set to nil for received messages.
	//
	// The callback will be called exactly once, before the message is sent.
	//
	// asFunc converts its argument to driver-specific types.
	// See https://gocloud.dev/concepts/as/ for background information.
	BeforeSend func(asFunc func(interface{}) bool) error

	// AfterSend is a callback used when sending a message. It will always be
	// set to nil for received messages.
	//
	// The callback will be called at most once, after the message is sent.
	// If Send returns an error, AfterSend will not be called.
	//
	// asFunc converts its argument to driver-specific types.
	// See https://gocloud.dev/concepts/as/ for background information.
	AfterSend func(asFunc func(interface{}) bool) error
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Message contains data to be published.

func (*Message) Ack

func (m *Message) Ack()

Ack acknowledges the message, telling the server that it does not need to be sent again to the associated Subscription. It will be a no-op for some drivers; see https://godoc.org/gocloud.dev/pubsub#hdr-At_most_once_and_At_least_once_Delivery for more info.

Ack returns immediately, but the actual ack is sent in the background, and is not guaranteed to succeed. If background acks persistently fail, the error will be returned from a subsequent Receive.

func (*Message) As

func (m *Message) As(i interface{}) bool

As converts i to driver-specific types. See https://gocloud.dev/concepts/as/ for background information, the "As" examples in this package for examples, and the driver package documentation for the specific types supported for that driver. As panics unless it is called on a message obtained from Subscription.Receive.

Example
package main

import (
	"context"
	"log"

	"gocloud.dev/pubsub"

	pbapi "google.golang.org/genproto/googleapis/pubsub/v1"
)

func main() {
	// This example is specific to the gcppubsub implementation; it demonstrates
	// access to the underlying PubsubMessage type.
	// The types exposed for As by gcppubsub are documented in
	// https://godoc.org/gocloud.dev/pubsub/gcppubsub#hdr-As

	ctx := context.Background()
	sub, err := pubsub.OpenSubscription(ctx, "gcppubsub://project/topic")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	defer sub.Shutdown(ctx)

	msg, err := sub.Receive(ctx)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	var pm *pbapi.PubsubMessage
	if msg.As(&pm) {
		_ = pm.GetAttributes()
	}
	msg.Ack()
}
Output:

func (*Message) Nack

func (m *Message) Nack()

Nack (short for negative acknowledgment) tells the server that this Message was not processed and should be redelivered.

Nack panics for some drivers, as Nack is meaningless when messages can't be redelivered. You can call Nackable to determine if Nack is available. See https://godoc.org/gocloud.dev/pubsub#hdr-At_most_once_and_At_least_once_Delivery fore more info.

Nack returns immediately, but the actual nack is sent in the background, and is not guaranteed to succeed.

Nack is a performance optimization for retrying transient failures. It must not be used for message parse errors or other messages that the application will never be able to process: calling Nack will cause them to be redelivered and overload the server. Instead, an application should call Ack and log the failure in some monitored way.

func (*Message) Nackable

func (m *Message) Nackable() bool

Nackable returns true iff Nack can be called without panicking.

Some services do not support Nack; for example, at-most-once services can't redeliver a message. See https://godoc.org/gocloud.dev/pubsub#hdr-At_most_once_and_At_least_once_Delivery for more info.

type Subscription

type Subscription struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Subscription receives published messages.

func OpenSubscription

func OpenSubscription(ctx context.Context, urlstr string) (*Subscription, error)

OpenSubscription opens the Subscription identified by the URL given. See the URLOpener documentation in driver subpackages for details on supported URL formats, and https://gocloud.dev/concepts/urls for more information.

func (*Subscription) As

func (s *Subscription) As(i interface{}) bool

As converts i to driver-specific types. See https://gocloud.dev/concepts/as/ for background information, the "As" examples in this package for examples, and the driver package documentation for the specific types supported for that driver.

Example
package main

import (
	"context"
	"log"

	"gocloud.dev/pubsub"

	pbraw "cloud.google.com/go/pubsub/apiv1"
)

func main() {
	// This example is specific to the gcppubsub implementation; it demonstrates
	// access to the underlying SubscriberClient type.
	// The types exposed for As by gcppubsub are documented in
	// https://godoc.org/gocloud.dev/pubsub/gcppubsub#hdr-As

	ctx := context.Background()
	sub, err := pubsub.OpenSubscription(ctx, "gcppubsub://project/topic")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	defer sub.Shutdown(ctx)

	var sc *pbraw.SubscriberClient
	if sub.As(&sc) {
		_ = sc.CallOptions
	}
}
Output:

func (*Subscription) ErrorAs

func (s *Subscription) ErrorAs(err error, i interface{}) bool

ErrorAs converts err to driver-specific types. ErrorAs panics if i is nil or not a pointer. ErrorAs returns false if err == nil. See Topic.As for more details.

Example
package main

import (
	"context"
	"log"

	"gocloud.dev/pubsub"

	"google.golang.org/grpc/status"
)

func main() {
	// This example is specific to the gcppubsub implementation; it demonstrates
	// access to the underlying Status type.
	// The types exposed for As by gcppubsub are documented in
	// https://godoc.org/gocloud.dev/pubsub/gcppubsub#hdr-As

	ctx := context.Background()
	sub, err := pubsub.OpenSubscription(ctx, "gcppubsub://project/badtopic")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	defer sub.Shutdown(ctx)

	msg, err := sub.Receive(ctx)
	if err != nil {
		var s *status.Status
		if sub.ErrorAs(err, &s) {
			_ = s.Code()
		}
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	msg.Ack()
}
Output:

func (*Subscription) Receive

func (s *Subscription) Receive(ctx context.Context) (_ *Message, err error)

Receive receives and returns the next message from the Subscription's queue, blocking and polling if none are available. It can be called concurrently from multiple goroutines.

Receive retries retryable errors from the underlying driver forever. Therefore, if Receive returns an error, either:

  1. It is a non-retryable error from the underlying driver, either from an attempt to fetch more messages or from an attempt to ack messages. Operator intervention may be required (e.g., invalid resource, quota error, etc.). Receive will return the same error from then on, so the application should log the error and either recreate the Subscription, or exit.
  2. The provided ctx is Done. Error() on the returned error will include both the ctx error and the underlying driver error, and ErrorAs on it can access the underlying driver error type if needed. Receive may be called again with a fresh ctx.

Callers can distinguish between the two by checking if the ctx they passed is Done, or via xerrors.Is(err, context.DeadlineExceeded or context.Canceled) on the returned error.

The Ack method of the returned Message must be called once the message has been processed, to prevent it from being received again.

Example
package main

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"
	"log"

	"gocloud.dev/pubsub"
)

func main() {
	// PRAGMA: This example is used on gocloud.dev; PRAGMA comments adjust how it is shown and can be ignored.
	// PRAGMA: On gocloud.dev, hide lines until the next blank line.
	ctx := context.Background()
	var subscription *pubsub.Subscription

	// Loop on received messages.
	for {
		msg, err := subscription.Receive(ctx)
		if err != nil {
			// Errors from Receive indicate that Receive will no longer succeed.
			log.Printf("Receiving message: %v", err)
			break
		}
		// Do work based on the message, for example:
		fmt.Printf("Got message: %q\n", msg.Body)
		// Messages must always be acknowledged with Ack.
		msg.Ack()
	}
}
Output:

Example (Concurrent)

	// PRAGMA: This example is used on gocloud.dev; PRAGMA comments adjust how it is shown and can be ignored.
	// PRAGMA: On gocloud.dev, hide lines until the next blank line.
	ctx := context.Background()
	var subscription *pubsub.Subscription

	// Loop on received messages. We can use a channel as a semaphore to limit how
	// many goroutines we have active at a time as well as wait on the goroutines
	// to finish before exiting.
	const maxHandlers = 10
	sem := make(chan struct{}, maxHandlers)
recvLoop:
	for {
		msg, err := subscription.Receive(ctx)
		if err != nil {
			// Errors from Receive indicate that Receive will no longer succeed.
			log.Printf("Receiving message: %v", err)
			break
		}

		// Wait if there are too many active handle goroutines and acquire the
		// semaphore. If the context is canceled, stop waiting and start shutting
		// down.
		select {
		case sem <- struct{}{}:
		case <-ctx.Done():
			break recvLoop
		}

		// Handle the message in a new goroutine.
		go func() {
			defer func() { <-sem }() // Release the semaphore.
			defer msg.Ack()          // Messages must always be acknowledged with Ack.

			// Do work based on the message, for example:
			fmt.Printf("Got message: %q\n", msg.Body)
		}()
	}

	// We're no longer receiving messages. Wait to finish handling any
	// unacknowledged messages by totally acquiring the semaphore.
	for n := 0; n < maxHandlers; n++ {
		sem <- struct{}{}
	}
}

import (
	"context"
	"log"

	"gocloud.dev/pubsub"
)

func main() {
	// PRAGMA: This example is used on gocloud.dev; PRAGMA comments adjust how it is shown and can be ignored.
