PubSubModelSync

Rails badge Ruby badge Production badge

This gem permits to sync automatically models and custom data between multiple Rails applications by publishing notifications via pubsub (Google PubSub, RabbitMQ, or Apache Kafka) and automatically processed by all connected applications. Out of the scope, this gem includes transactions to keep Data consistency by processing notifications in the order they were delivered.
These notifications use JSON format to easily be decoded by subscribers (Rails applications and even other languages, soon for Cristal-lang)

Features

  • Sync model data between Rails apps: All changes made on App1, will be immediately reflected on App2, App3, etc.
    Example: If User is created on App1, this user will be created on App2, App3 too with the accepted attributes.
  • Ability to send instance and class level notifications
    Example: If App1 wants to send emails to multiple users, this can be listened on App2, to deliver corresponding emails
  • Change pub/sub service at any time: Switch between rabbitmq, kafka, google pubsub
  • Support for transactions: Permits to keep data consistency between applications by processing notifications in the same order they were delivered (auto included in models transactions).
  • Ability to send notifications to a specific topic (single application) or multiple topics (multiple applications)

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'pub_sub_model_sync', '>= 1.9.3'

gem 'google-cloud-pubsub', '>= 2.14.0' # to use google pub/sub service. For old rails apps ('>= 1.9', '<= 2.9.2')
gem 'bunny' # to use rabbit-mq pub/sub service
gem 'ruby-kafka' # to use apache kafka pub/sub service

And then execute: $ bundle install

Configuration

  • Configuration for google pub/sub (You need google pub/sub service account)

    # initializers/pub_sub_config.rb
    PubSubModelSync::Config.service_name = :google
    PubSubModelSync::Config.project = 'google-project-id'
    PubSubModelSync::Config.credentials = 'path-to-google-config.json'
    PubSubModelSync::Config.topic_name = 'sample-topic' 
    PubSubModelSync::Config.subscription_name = 'my-app1'

    See details here: https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-ruby/tree/master/google-cloud-pubsub

  • configuration for RabbitMq (You need rabbitmq installed)

    PubSubModelSync::Config.service_name = :rabbitmq
    PubSubModelSync::Config.bunny_connection = 'amqp://guest:guest@localhost'
    PubSubModelSync::Config.topic_name = 'sample-topic'
    PubSubModelSync::Config.subscription_name = 'my-app2'

    See details here: https://github.com/ruby-amqp/bunny

  • configuration for Apache Kafka (You need kafka installed)

    PubSubModelSync::Config.service_name = :kafka
    PubSubModelSync::Config.kafka_connection = [["kafka1:9092", "localhost:2121"], { logger: Rails.logger }]
    PubSubModelSync::Config.topic_name = 'sample-topic'
    PubSubModelSync::Config.subscription_name = 'my-app3'

    See details here: https://github.com/zendesk/ruby-kafka

    Important: The topic_name must be the same for all applications, so that, the apps connect to the same topic

  • Add publishers/subscribers to your models (See examples below)

  • Start subscribers to listen for publishers (Only in the app that has subscribers)

      DB_POOL=20 bundle exec rake pub_sub_model_sync:start

    Note: You need more than 15 DB pools to avoid "could not obtain a connection from the pool within 5.000 seconds". https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/concurrency-and-database-connections

  • Check the service status with:

      PubSubModelSync::Payload.new({ my_data: 'here' }, { klass: 'MyClass', action: :sample_action }).publish!

Basic Example

# App 1 (Publisher)
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  include PubSubModelSync::PublisherConcern
  ps_after_action(:create) { ps_publish(:create, mapping: %i[id name email]) }
  ps_after_action(:update) { ps_publish(:update, mapping: %i[id name email]) }
  ps_after_action(:destroy) { ps_publish(:destroy, mapping: %i[id]) }  
end

# App 2 (Subscriber)
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  include PubSubModelSync::SubscriberConcern
  ps_subscribe([:create, :update, :destroy], %i[name email], id: :id) # crud notifications
end

# CRUD syncs
my_user = User.create!(name: 'test user', email: '[email protected]') # Publishes `:create` notification (App 2 syncs the new user)
my_user.update!(name: 'changed user') # Publishes `:update` notification (App2 updates changes on user with the same id)
my_user.destroy! # Publishes `:destroy` notification (App2 destroys the corresponding user)

Advanced Example

# App 1 (Publisher)
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  include PubSubModelSync::PublisherConcern
  ps_after_action([:create, :update]) do |action| 
    ps_publish(action, mapping: %i[name:full_name email], as_klass: 'App1User', headers: { topic_name: %i[topic1 topic2] })
  end
end

# App 2 (Subscriber)
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  include PubSubModelSync::SubscriberConcern
  ps_subscribe([:create, :update], %i[full_name:customer_name], id: :email, from_klass: 'App1User')  
  ps_subscribe(:send_welcome, %i[email], id: :email, to_action: :send_email, if: ->(model) { model.email.present? })
  ps_class_subscribe(:batch_disable) # class subscription
  
  def send_email
    puts "sending email to #{email}"
  end
  
  def self.batch_disable(data)
    puts "disabling users: #{data[:ids]}"
  end
end
my_user = User.create!(name: 'test user', email: '[email protected]') # Publishes `:create` notification with classname `App1User` (App2 syncs the new user)
my_user.ps_publish(:send_welcome, mapping: %i[id email]) # Publishes `:send_welcome` notification (App2 prints "sending email to...")
PubSubModelSync::Payload.new({ ids: [my_user.id] }, { klass: 'User', action: :batch_disable, mode: :klass }).publish! # Publishes class notification (App2 prints "disabling users..")

API

Subscribers

Registering Subscriptions

  class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
    ps_subscribe(action, mapping, settings)
    ps_class_subscribe(action, settings)
  end
  • Instance subscriptions: ps_subscribe(action, mapping, settings, &block)
    When model receives the corresponding notification, action or to_action method will be called on the model. Like: model.destroy

    • action (Symbol|Array) Only notifications with this action name will be processed by this subscription. Sample: save|create|update|destroy|<any_other_action>
    • mapping (Array) Data mapping from payload data into model attributes, sample: ["email", "full_name:name"] (Note: Only these attributes will be assigned/synced to the current model)
      • [email] means that email value from payload will be assigned to email attribute from current model
      • [full_name:name] means that full_name value from payload will be assigned to name attribute from current model
    • settings (Hash<:from_klass, :to_action, :id, :if, :unless>)
      • from_klass: (String, default current class): Only notifications with this class name will be processed by this subscription
      • to_action: (Symbol|Proc, default action):
        When Symbol: Model method to process the notification, sample: def my_method(data)...end
        When Proc: Block to process the notification, sample: {|data| ... }
      • id: (Symbol|Array<Symbol|String>, default: :id) identifier attribute(s) to find the corresponding model instance (Supports for mapping format)
        Sample: id: :id will search for a model like: model_class.where(id: payload.data[:id])
        Sample: id: [:id, :email:user_email] will search for a model like: model_class.where(id: payload.data[:id], user_email: payload.data[:email])
      • if: (Symbol|Proc|Array) Method(s) or block called for the confirmation before calling the callback
      • unless: (Symbol|Proc|Array) Method or block called for the negation before calling the callback
    • &block Block to be used as the callback method (ignored if :to_action is present). Sample: ps_subscribe(:send_welcome, %i[email]) { |_data| puts model.email }
  • Class subscriptions: ps_class_subscribe(action, settings, &block)
    When current class receives the corresponding notification, action or to_action method will be called on the Class. Like: User.hello(data)

    • action (Symbol) Notification.action name
    • settings (Hash) refer ps_subscribe.settings except(:id)
    • &block Block to be used as the callback method (ignored if :to_action is present). Sample: ps_class_subscribe(:send_welcome) { |data| puts data }
  • ps_processing_payload a class and instance variable that saves the current payload being processed

  • (Only instance subscription) Perform custom actions before saving sync of the model (:cancel can be returned to skip sync)

    class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
      def ps_before_save_sync
        # puts ps_processing_payload.data[:id]
      end
    end
  • (Only instance subscription) Configure a custom model finder (optional)

    class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
      def ps_find_model(data)
        where(custom_finder: data[:custom_value]).first_or_initialize
      end
    end
    • data: (Hash) Payload data received from sync Must return an existent or a new model object

Subscription helpers

  • List all configured subscriptions
      PubSubModelSync::Config.subscribers
  • Process or reprocess a notification
      payload = PubSubModelSync::Payload.new(data, attributes, headers)
      payload.process!

Publishers

  class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
    ps_after_action([:create, :update, :destroy], :method_publisher_name) # using method callback
    ps_after_action([:create, :update, :destroy]) do |action| # using block callback
      ps_publish(action, data: {}, mapping: [], headers: {}, as_klass: nil)
      ps_class_publish({}, action: :my_action, as_klass: nil, headers: {})
    end

    def method_publisher_name(action)
      ps_publish(action, data: {}, mapping: [], headers: {}, as_klass: nil)
    end
  end

Publishing notifications

  • ps_after_action(crud_actions, method_name = nil, &block) Listens for CRUD events and calls provided block or method to process event callback

    • crud_actions (Symbol|Array) Crud event(s) to be observed (Allowed: :create, :update, :destroy)
    • method_name (Symbol, optional) method to be called to process action callback, sample: def my_method(action) ... end
    • block (Proc, optional) Block to be called to process action callback, sample: { |action| ... }

    Note1: Due to rails callback ordering, this method uses after_commit on: action {...} callback when creating or updating models to ensure expected notifications order (More details here).
    Note2: Due to rails callback ordering, this method uses after_destroy callback when destroying models to ensure the expected notifications order.

  • ps_publish(action, data: {}, mapping: [], headers: {}, as_klass: nil) Delivers an instance notification via pubsub

    • action (Sym|String) Action name of the instance notification. Sample: create|update|destroy|<any_other_key>
    • mapping: (Array, optional) Generates payload data using the provided mapper:
      • Sample: ["id", "name"] will result into { id: <model.id>, name: <model.name>}
      • Sample: ["id", "full_name:name"] will result into { id: <model.id>, name: <model.full_name>}
    • data: (Hash|Symbol|Proc, optional)
      • When Hash: Data to be added to the final payload
      • When Symbol: Method name to be called to retrieve payload data (must return a hash, receives :action as arg)
      • When Proc: Block to be called to retrieve payload data (must return a hash, receives :model, :action as args)
    • headers: (Hash|Symbol|Proc, optional): Defines how the notification will be delivered and be processed (All available attributes in Payload.headers)
      • When Hash: Data that will be merged with default header values
      • When Symbol: Method name that will be called to retrieve header values (must return a hash, receives :action arg)
      • When Proc: Block to be called to retrieve header values (must return a hash, receives :model, :action as args)
    • as_klass: (String, default current class name): Output class name used instead of current class name
  • ps_class_publish(data, action:, as_klass: nil, headers: {}) Delivers a Class notification via pubsub

    • data (Hash): Data of the notification
    • action (Symbol): action name of the notification
    • as_klass: (String, default current class name): Class name of the notification
    • headers: (Hash, optional): header settings (More in Payload.headers)
  • ps_perform_publish(action = :create, parents_actions: false) Permits to perform manually the callback of a specific ps_after_action

    • action (Symbol, default: :create) Only :create|:update|:destroy
    • parents_actions (Boolean, default: false) When true, includes inherited PubSub-callbacks from parent classes

Publisher helpers

  • Publish or republish a notification
      payload = PubSubModelSync::Payload.new(data, attributes, headers)
      payload.publish!

Publisher callbacks

  • Do some actions before publishing notification. If returns ":cancel", notification will not be delivered

        class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
          def ps_before_publish(action, payload)
            # logic here
          end
        end
  • Do some actions after notification was delivered.

      class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
        def ps_after_publish(action, payload)
          # logic here
        end
      end

Payload

Any notification before delivering is transformed as a Payload for a better portability.

  • Attributes

    • data: (Hash) Data to be published or processed

    • info: (Hash) Notification info

      • action: (String) Notification action name
      • klass: (String) Notification class name
      • mode: (Symbol: :model|:class) Kind of notification
    • headers: (Hash) Notification settings that defines how the notification will be processed or delivered.

      • ordering_key: (String, optional): notifications with the same ordering_key are processed in the same order they were delivered, default: <model.class.name>/<model.id> when instance notification and klass_name when class notification.
        Note: Final ordering_key is calculated as: payload.headers[:forced_ordering_key] || current_transaction&.key || payload.headers[:ordering_key]
      • topic_name: (String|Array, optional): Specific topic name where to deliver the notification (default PubSubModelSync::Config.topic_name).
      • forced_ordering_key: (String, optional): Overrides ordering_key with the provided value even withing transactions. Default nil (if true, prevails the payload's ordering_key).
      • target_app_key: (String, optional): Allows to send the notification to a specific app (includes the application key, separated by comma when multiple apps). Default nil.
      • cache (Boolean | Hash, Default false) Cache settings
        • true: Skip publishing similar payloads
        • Hash<required: Array<Symbol>>: Same as true and enables payload optimization to exclude unchanged non important attributes. Sample: { required: %i[id email] }

      ** Read ONLY **

      • internal_key: Internal identifier of the payload, default: <model.class.name>/<action>/<model.id> when model notification and <klass_name>/<action> when class notification (Useful for caching techniques).
      • app_key: (Auto calculated): Name of the application who delivered the notification.
      • uuid: (Auto calculated): Unique notification identifier (Very useful when debugging).
        Note: To reduce Payload size, some header info are not delivered (Enable debug mode to deliver all payload info).
  • Actions

      payload.publish! # publishes notification data. It raises exception if fails and does not call ```:on_error_publishing``` callback
      payload.publish # publishes notification data. On error does not raise exception but calls ```:on_error_publishing``` callback
      payload.process! # process a notification data. It raises exception if fails and does not call ```.on_error_processing``` callback
      payload.process # process a notification data. It does not raise exception if fails but calls ```.on_error_processing``` callback
      payload.retry_publish! # allows to retry publishing a failed payload (All callbacks are ignored)

Transactions

This Gem supports to publish multiple notifications to be processed in the same order they are published.

  • Crud syncs auto includes transactions which works as the following:

    class User
      ps_after_action([:create, :update, :destroy]) { |action| ps_publish(action, mapping: %i[id name]) }
      has_many :posts, dependent: :destroy
      accepts_nested_attributes_for :posts
    end
    
    class Post
      belongs_to :user
      ps_after_action([:create, :update, :destroy]) { |action| ps_publish(action, mapping: %i[id user_id title]) }
    end
    • When created (all notifications use the same ordering_key to be processed in the same order)
        user = User.create!(name: 'test', posts_attributes: [{ title: 'Post 1' }, { title: 'Post 2' }])
        # notification #1 => <Payload data: {id: 1, name: 'sample'}, info: { klass: 'User', action: :create, mode: :model }, headers: { ordering_key = `User/1` }>
        # notification #2 => <Payload data: {id: 1, title: 'Post 1', user_id: 1}, info: { klass: 'Post', action: :create, mode: :model }, headers: { ordering_key = `User/1` }>
        # notification #3 => <Payload data: {id: 2, title: 'Post 2', user_id: 1}, info: { klass: 'Post', action: :create, mode: :model }, headers: { ordering_key = `User/1` }>
    • When updated (all notifications use the same ordering_key to be processed in the same order)
        user.update!(name: 'changed', posts_attributes: [{ id: 1, title: 'Post 1C' }, { id: 2, title: 'Post 2C' }])
        # notification #1 => <Payload data: {id: 1, name: 'changed'}, info: { klass: 'User', action: :update, mode: :model }, headers: { ordering_key = `User/1` }>
        # notification #2 => <Payload data: {id: 1, title: 'Post 1C', user_id: 1}, info: { klass: 'Post', action: :update, mode: :model }, headers: { ordering_key = `User/1` }>
        # notification #3 => <Payload data: {id: 2, title: 'Post 2C', user_id: 1}, info: { klass: 'Post', action: :update, mode: :model }, headers: { ordering_key = `User/1` }>
    • When destroyed (all notifications use the same ordering_key to be processed in the same order)
      Note: The notifications order were reordered in order to avoid inconsistency in other apps
      user.destroy!
      # notification #1 => <Payload data: {id: 1, title: 'Post 1C', user_id: 1}, info: { klass: 'Post', action: :destroy, mode: :model }>
      # notification #2 => <Payload data: {id: 2, title: 'Post 2C', user_id: 1}, info: { klass: 'Post', action: :destroy, mode: :model }>
      # notification #3 => <Payload data: {id: 1, name: 'changed'}, info: { klass: 'User', action: :destroy, mode: :model }>

    By this way parent notification and all inner notifications are processed in the same order they were published (includes notifications from callbacks like ps_before_publish).

    Note: When any error is raised when saving user or posts, the transaction is cancelled and thus all notifications wont be delivered (customizable by PubSubModelSync::Config.transactions_use_buffer).

  • Manual transactions
    PubSubModelSync::MessagePublisher::transaction(key, headers: { target_app_key: 'my_other_app_key' } &block)
    • key (String|nil) Key used as the ordering_key for all inner notifications (When nil, will use ordering_key of the first notification)
    • headers: (Hash) Header settings to be added to each Payload's header inside this transaction
      Sample:
      PubSubModelSync::MessagePublisher::transaction('my-custom-key', headers: { key: 'my-key' }) do
        user = User.create(name: 'test') # `User`:`:create` notification
        post = Post.create(title: 'sample') # `Post`:`:create` notification
        PubSubModelSync::Payload.new({ ids: [user.id] }, { klass: 'User', action: :send_welcome, mode: :klass }).publish! # `User`:`:send_welcome` notification
      end
    All notifications uses ordering_key: 'my-custom-key' and will be processed in the same order they were published (Payload headers will include key="my-key").

Testing with RSpec

  • Config: (spec/rails_helper.rb)
        config.before(:each) do
          # disable delivering notifications to pubsub
          allow(PubSubModelSync::MessagePublisher).to receive(:connector_publish)
          # disable all models sync by default (reduces testing time by avoiding to build payload data)
          allow(PubSubModelSync::MessagePublisher).to receive(:publish_model)
        end
      
        # enable all models sync only for tests that includes 'sync: true'
        config.before(:each, sync: true) do
          allow(PubSubModelSync::MessagePublisher).to receive(:publish_model).and_call_original
        end
        
        # Only when using database cleaner in old versions of rspec (enables after_commit callback)
        # config.before(:each, truncate: true) do
        #   DatabaseCleaner.strategy = :truncation
        # end

Extra configurations

config = PubSubModelSync::Config
config.debug = true
  • .topic_name = ['topic1', 'topic 2']: (String|Array)
    Topic name(s) to be used to listen all notifications from when listening. Additionally first topic name is used as the default topic name when publishing a notification.
  • .subscription_name = "my-app-1": (String, default Rails.application.name)
    Subscriber's identifier which helps to:
    • skip self notifications
    • continue the sync from the last synced notification when service was restarted.
  • .default_topic_name = "my_topic": (String|Array, optional(default first topic from topic_name))
    Topic name used as the default topic if not defined in the payload when publishing a notification
  • .debug = true (true/false*) => show advanced log messages
  • .logger = Rails.logger (Logger) => define custom logger
  • .on_before_processing = ->(payload, {subscriber:}) { puts payload } (Proc) => called before processing a received notification (:cancel can be returned to skip processing)
  • .on_success_processing = ->(payload, {subscriber:}) { puts payload } (Proc) => called when a notification was successfully processed
  • .on_error_processing = ->(exception, {payload:, subscriber:}) { payload.delay(...).process! } (Proc) => called when a notification has failed when processing (delayed_job or similar can be used for retrying)
  • .on_before_publish = ->(payload) { puts payload } (Proc) => called before publishing a notification (:cancel can be returned to skip publishing)
  • .on_after_publish = ->(payload) { puts payload } (Proc) => called after publishing a notification
  • .on_error_publish = ->(exception, {payload:}) { payload.delay(...).retry_publish! } (Proc) => called when failed publishing a notification (delayed_job or similar can be used for retrying)
  • .skip_cache = false (true/false*) => Allow to skip payload optimization (cache settings)
  • .sync_mode = true (true/false*) => If true, the messages are delivered synchronously, else, they are delivered asynchronously (Currently, only GooglePubsub supports it). Also it can be enabled via env var: PUBSUB_MODEL_SYNC_MODE=true
  • .transactions_max_buffer = 1 (Integer, default 1) Controls the maximum quantity of notifications to be enqueued to the transaction-buffer before delivering them and thus adds the ability to rollback notifications if the transaction fails.
    Once this quantity of notifications is reached, then all notifications of the current transaction will immediately be delivered (can be customized per transaction).
    Note: There is no way to rollback delivered notifications if current transaction fails later.
    Note2: Only notifications from the buffer can be rollbacked if the current transaction has failed.

TODO

  • add the ability to raise SKIP_ACKNOWLEDGE to auto retry by PubSub
  • Auto publish update only if payload has changed (see ways to compare previous payload vs new payload)
  • Improve transactions to exclude similar notifications by klass and action. Sample: PubSubModelSync::MessagePublisher.transaction(key, { same_keys: :use_last_as_first|:use_last|:use_first_as_last|:keep*, same_data: :use_last_as_first*|:use_last|:use_first_as_last|:keep })
  • Add DB table to use as a shield to prevent publishing similar notifications and publish partial notifications (similar idea when processing notif)
  • Last notification is not being delivered immediately in google pubsub (maybe force with timeout 10secs and service.deliver_messages)
  • Update folder structure
  • Services support to deliver multiple payloads from transactions
  • Fix deprecation warnings: pub_sub_model_sync/service_google.rb:39: warning: Splitting the last argument into positional and keyword parameters is deprecated
  • Add if/unless to ps_after_action
  • Add subscription liveness checker using thread without db connection to check periodically pending notifications from google pubsub
  • Unify .stop() and 'Listener stopped'
  • TODO: Publish new version 1.2.1 (improve logs)
  • Enable async mode for rabbitMQ and Kafka

Q&A

  • I'm getting error "could not obtain a connection from the pool within 5.000 seconds"... what does this mean? This problem occurs because pub/sub dependencies (kafka, google-pubsub, rabbitmq) uses many threads to perform notifications where the qty of threads is greater than qty of DB pools (Google pubsub info) To fix the problem, edit config/database.yml and increase the quantity of pool: ENV['DB_POOL'] || 5 and DB_POOL=20 bundle exec rake pub_sub_model_sync:start
  • How to retry failed syncs with sidekiq?
      # lib/initializers/pub_sub_config.rb
    
      class PubSubRecovery
        include Sidekiq::Worker
        sidekiq_options queue: :pubsub, retry: 2, backtrace: true
    
        def perform(payload_data, action)
          payload = PubSubModelSync::Payload.from_payload_data(payload_data)
          payload.send(action)
        end
      end
    
      PubSubModelSync::Config.on_error_publish = lambda do |_e, data|
        PubSubRecovery.perform_async(data[:payload].to_h, :retry_publish!)
      end
      PubSubModelSync::Config.on_error_processing = lambda do |_e, data|
        PubSubRecovery.perform_async(data[:payload].to_h, :process!)
      end
