Bus is a minimalist event/message bus implementation for internal communication. It is heavily inspired from my event_bus package for Elixir language.
The method names and arities/args are stable now. No change should be expected
on the package for the version 3.x.x
except any bug fixes.
Via go packages:
go get github.com/mustafaturan/bus/v3
The package requires a unique id generator to assign ids to events. You can write your own function to generate unique ids or use a package that provides unique id generation functionality.
The bus
package respect to software design choice of the packages/projects. It
supports both singleton and dependency injection to init a bus
instance.
Hint: Check the demo project for the singleton configuration.
Here is a sample initilization using monoton
id generator:
import (
"github.com/mustafaturan/bus/v3"
"github.com/mustafaturan/monoton/v2"
"github.com/mustafaturan/monoton/v2/sequencer"
)
func NewBus() *bus.Bus {
// configure id generator (it doesn't have to be monoton)
node := uint64(1)
initialTime := uint64(1577865600000) // set 2020-01-01 PST as initial time
m, err := monoton.New(sequencer.NewMillisecond(), node, initialTime)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// init an id generator
var idGenerator bus.Next = m.Next
// create a new bus instance
b, err := bus.NewBus(idGenerator)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// maybe register topics in here
b.RegisterTopics("order.received", "order.fulfilled")
return b
}
To emit events to the topics, topic names need to be registered first:
// register topics
b.RegisterTopics("order.received", "order.fulfilled")
To receive topic events you need to register handlers; A handler basically
requires two vals which are a Handle
function and topic Matcher
regex
pattern.
handler := bus.Handler{
Handle: func(ctx context.Context, e bus.Event) {
// do something
// NOTE: Highly recommended to process the event in an async way
},
Matcher: ".*", // matches all topics
}
b.RegisterHandler("a unique key for the handler", handler)
// if txID val is blank, bus package generates one using the id generator
ctx := context.Background()
ctx = context.WithValue(ctx, bus.CtxKeyTxID, "some-transaction-id-if-exists")
// with optional source
ctx = context.WithValue(ctx, bus.CtxKeySource, "source-of-the-event")
// event topic name (must be registered before)
topic := "order.received"
// interface{} data for event
order := make(map[string]string)
order["orderID"] = "123456"
order["orderAmount"] = "112.20"
order["currency"] = "USD"
// emit the event
err := b.Emit(ctx, topic, order)
if err != nil {
// report the err
fmt.Println(err)
}
// emit the event with options
err := b.EmitWithOpts(ctx, topic, order, bus.WithTxID("some-tx-id"))
if err != nil {
// report the err
fmt.Println(err)
}
When an event is emitted, the topic handlers receive the event synchronously.
It is highly recommended to process events asynchronous. Package leave the
decision to the packages/projects to use concurrency abstractions depending on
use-cases. Each handlers receive the same event as ref of bus.Event
struct:
// Event data structure
type Event struct {
ID string // identifier
TxID string // transaction identifier
Topic string // topic name
Source string // source of the event
OccurredAt time.Time // creation time in nanoseconds
Data interface{} // actual event data
}
A demo project with three
consumers which increments a counter
for each event topic, printer
consumer
which prints all events and lastly calculator
consumer which sums amounts.
