pubsub

Documentation

Overview

This package was extracted from Tendermint

Package pubsub implements a pub-sub model with a single publisher (Server) and multiple subscribers (clients).

Though you can have multiple publishers by sharing a pointer to a server or by giving the same channel to each publisher and publishing messages from that channel (fan-in).

Clients subscribe for messages, which could be of any type, using a query. When some message is published, we match it with all queries. If there is a match, this message will be pushed to all clients, subscribed to that query. See query subpackage for our implementation.

	// from not existing subscription.

Types

type Option

type Option func(*Server)

Option sets a parameter for the server.

func BufferCapacity

func BufferCapacity(cap int) Option

BufferCapacity allows you to specify capacity for the internal server's queue. Since the server, given Y subscribers, could only process X messages, this option could be used to survive spikes (e.g. high amount of transactions during peak hours).

type Server

type Server struct {
	common.BaseService
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Server allows clients to subscribe/unsubscribe for messages, publishing messages with or without tags, and manages internal state.

func NewServer

func NewServer(options ...Option) *Server

NewServer returns a new server. See the commentary on the Option functions for a detailed description of how to configure buffering. If no options are provided, the resulting server's queue is unbuffered.

func (*Server) BufferCapacity

func (s *Server) BufferCapacity() int

BufferCapacity returns capacity of the internal server's queue.

func (*Server) OnReset

func (s *Server) OnReset() error

OnReset implements Service.OnReset

func (*Server) OnStart

func (s *Server) OnStart() error

OnStart implements Service.OnStart by starting the server.

func (*Server) OnStop

func (s *Server) OnStop()

OnStop implements Service.OnStop by shutting down the server.

func (*Server) Publish

func (s *Server) Publish(ctx context.Context, msg interface{}) error

Publish publishes the given message. An error will be returned to the caller if the context is canceled.

func (*Server) PublishWithTags

func (s *Server) PublishWithTags(ctx context.Context, msg interface{}, tags query.Tagged) error

PublishWithTags publishes the given message with the set of tags. The set is matched with clients queries. If there is a match, the message is sent to the client.

func (*Server) Subscribe

func (s *Server) Subscribe(ctx context.Context, clientID string, qry query.Query, outBuffer int) (<-chan interface{}, error)

Subscribe creates a subscription for the given client. It accepts a channel on which messages matching the given query can be received. An error will be returned to the caller if the context is canceled or if subscription already exist for pair clientID and query.

func (*Server) Unsubscribe

func (s *Server) Unsubscribe(ctx context.Context, clientID string, qry query.Query) error

Unsubscribe removes the subscription on the given query. An error will be returned to the caller if the context is canceled or if subscription does not exist.

func (*Server) UnsubscribeAll

func (s *Server) UnsubscribeAll(ctx context.Context, clientID string) error

UnsubscribeAll removes all client subscriptions. An error will be returned to the caller if the context is canceled or if subscription does not exist.
