Overview

Package libbus is a high-level publish-subscribe abstraction over a message broker, offering fire-and-forget publish, streaming subscriptions, and request-reply (Serve/Request) on top of pluggable backends (NATS, SQLite, in-memory).

Functions

func SetupNatsInstance

func SetupNatsInstance(ctx context.Context) (string, testcontainers.Container, func(), error)

Types

type Config

type Config struct {
	NATSURL      string
	NATSPassword string
	NATSUser     string
}

type Handler

type Handler func(ctx context.Context, data []byte) ([]byte, error)

Handler is a function that processes a request and returns a response. It is used by the Serve method to handle incoming requests.

type InMem

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

InMem is an in-memory Messenger for single-process use: no NATS, no network. It intentionally reproduces the NATS backend's observable contract (at-most-once delivery, Request failing immediately with no handler registered) — see the Messenger interface docs for the full matrix.

func NewInMem

func NewInMem() *InMem

NewInMem returns a new in-memory Messenger. Use for local single-process mode (no NATS).

func (*InMem) Close

func (p *InMem) Close() error

Close marks the messenger closed and releases resources.

func (*InMem) Publish

func (p *InMem) Publish(ctx context.Context, subject string, data []byte) error

Publish hands the message to every Stream subscriber's queue and returns. It never blocks on a consumer: a full queue drops the message (see inmemStreamBuffer) so that a wedged subscriber cannot take the publisher with it.

func (*InMem) Request

func (p *InMem) Request(ctx context.Context, subject string, data []byte) ([]byte, error)

Request invokes the Serve handler registered for the subject, in the caller's goroutine. Like the NATS backend it does NOT wait for a handler to appear: a missing handler fails immediately rather than after the context deadline.

func (*InMem) Serve

func (p *InMem) Serve(ctx context.Context, subject string, handler Handler) (Subscription, error)

Serve registers a handler for the subject. Request calls will invoke this handler.

func (*InMem) Stream

func (p *InMem) Stream(ctx context.Context, subject string, ch chan<- []byte) (Subscription, error)

Stream creates a subscription to a subject; messages are delivered to ch.

type Messenger

type Messenger interface {
	// Publish sends a fire-and-forget message to a given subject.
	Publish(ctx context.Context, subject string, data []byte) error

	// Stream creates a subscription to a subject and delivers messages asynchronously
	// to the provided channel. The subscription is automatically managed and will
	// be closed when the provided context is canceled.
	Stream(ctx context.Context, subject string, ch chan<- []byte) (Subscription, error)

	// Request sends a request message and waits for a reply. The context can be
	// used to set a timeout or to cancel the request.
	Request(ctx context.Context, subject string, data []byte) ([]byte, error)

	// Serve registers a handler for a given subject to respond to requests.
	// It starts a worker that listens for requests and executes the handler.
	// The returned Subscription can be used to stop serving.
	Serve(ctx context.Context, subject string, handler Handler) (Subscription, error)

	// Close disconnects from the messaging server and cleans up any underlying resources.
	Close() error
}

Messenger is a high-level pub-sub/request-reply interface for real-time notifications and distributing lightweight messages between services.

Guaranteed by every backend (enforced by conformance_test.go): Publish to a subject with no subscribers is a no-op and never blocks; Stream delivers in publish order until Unsubscribe or context cancel; a handler error still yields a reply — Request returns a non-nil error only on transport failure, never on handler failure; and after Close, every method returns ErrConnectionClosed.

Backends differ in ways callers must tolerate: NATS/InMem are at-most-once under backpressure (drop once a subscriber's buffer fills) while SQLiteBus is durable; NATS/InMem require Serve to return before Request is called, SQLiteBus does not; handler concurrency and delivery latency (SQLiteBus is poll-driven) vary per backend. Always give Request a deadline.

func NewPubSub

func NewPubSub(ctx context.Context, cfg *Config) (Messenger, error)

func NewTestPubSub

func NewTestPubSub() (Messenger, func(), error)

NewTestPubSub starts a NATS container using SetupNatsInstance, creates a new PubSub instance, and returns it along with a cleanup function.

type SQLiteBus added in v0.4.0

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

SQLiteBus implements Messenger over a SQLite database.

Schema tables (bus_events, bus_requests, bus_replies) must exist before use. They are part of runtimetypes.SchemaSQLite and are created automatically when the CLI database is opened.

Usage:

bus := libbus.NewSQLite(dbManager.WithoutTransaction())
defer bus.Close()

func NewSQLite added in v0.4.0

func NewSQLite(exec sqlExec) *SQLiteBus

NewSQLite creates a SQLite-backed Messenger. exec must be the result of dbManager.WithoutTransaction() — it satisfies sqlExec.

func NewSQLiteWithOptions added in v0.6.8

func NewSQLiteWithOptions(exec sqlExec, opt SQLiteBusOptions) *SQLiteBus

NewSQLiteWithOptions is like NewSQLite but allows tuning poll intervals for tests.

func (*SQLiteBus) Close added in v0.4.0

func (b *SQLiteBus) Close() error

Close stops all background goroutines. The underlying database is NOT closed (it is owned by the caller who provided the sqlExec).

func (*SQLiteBus) Publish added in v0.4.0

func (b *SQLiteBus) Publish(ctx context.Context, subject string, data []byte) error

Publish inserts a row into bus_events so Stream subscribers can pick it up.

func (*SQLiteBus) Request added in v0.4.0

func (b *SQLiteBus) Request(ctx context.Context, subject string, data []byte) ([]byte, error)

Request inserts a request row and polls for the reply until ctx deadline or 10s timeout.

func (*SQLiteBus) Serve added in v0.4.0

func (b *SQLiteBus) Serve(ctx context.Context, subject string, handler Handler) (Subscription, error)

Serve registers a handler for subject. A polling goroutine picks up rows from bus_requests, calls the handler, and writes the reply to bus_replies.

func (*SQLiteBus) Stream added in v0.4.0

func (b *SQLiteBus) Stream(ctx context.Context, subject string, ch chan<- []byte) (Subscription, error)

Stream starts a polling goroutine that delivers new bus_events for subject to ch. The subscription goroutine stops when ctx is cancelled.

type SQLiteBusOptions added in v0.6.8

type SQLiteBusOptions struct {
	EventPoll   time.Duration
	RequestPoll time.Duration
}

SQLiteBusOptions overrides poll intervals (e.g. tests use 1ms so request/reply is deterministic).

type Subscription

type Subscription interface {
	// Unsubscribe removes the subscription, stopping the delivery of messages.
	Unsubscribe() error
}

Subscription represents an active subscription to a subject.
