Akka Streams Source and Sink for Cloud Pub/Sub

This repository contains an Akka Streams Source and Sink implementation that can be used with Google's Cloud Pub/Sub messaging middleware. The Cloud Pub/Sub sinks and sources provided in this repository have been in production at Qubit for several months and is used to process a Cloud Pub/Sub stream that averages over a billion messages a day in real time.

Usage

Currently only Scala 2.11 artifacts are published.

SBT:

"com.qubit" % "akka-cloudpubsub_2.11" % "1.0.0"

Maven:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.qubit</groupId>
    <artifactId>akka-cloudpubsub_2.11</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
</dependency>

From source:

sbt localInstall

Reading from Cloud Pub/Sub (Source)

PubSubSource is backpressure aware and only reads from Pub/Sub when there's demand downstream. By default, messages are acked every 10 seconds or when the ack buffer is full (default size 100). The ack interval, buffer size and several other properties are configurable via attributes.

Creating a source reading from the foo-sub subscription in the foo-project with the default settings:

Source.fromGraph(new PubSubSource(PubSubSubscription("foo-project", "foo-sub")))

Overriding the ack interval to 30 seconds:

Source.fromGraph(new PubSubSource(PubSubSubscription("foo-project", "foo-sub")), 30.seconds)

Customise the ack interval, buffer size, pull timeout, max retries and retry jitter:

val attributes = Attributes(List(
    PubSubPullTimeoutAttribute(60.seconds),
    PubSubStageBufferSizeAttribute(200),
    PubSubStageMaxRetriesAttribute(100),
    PubSubStageRetryJitterAttribute(1, 5)))
Source.fromGraph(new PubSubSource(PubSubSubscription("foo-project", "foo-sub"), 30.seconds)).withAttributes(attributes)

Writing to Cloud Pub/Sub (Sink)

PubSubSink flushes messages either when the buffer is full (size is 100 by default) or after the messages have been in the buffer for maxDelay (30 seconds by default).

Creating a sink writing to foo-topic topic in the foo-project with the default settings:

Sink.fromGraph(new PubSubSink(PubSubTopic("foo-project", "foo-topic")))

Overriding the max delay to 10 seconds:

Sink.fromGraph(new PubSubSink(PubSubTopic("foo-project", "foo-topic")), 10.seconds)

Customise the max delay, buffer size, publish timeout, max retries and retry jitter:

val attributes = Attributes(List(
    PubSubStageBufferSizeAttribute(200),
    PubSubStageMaxRetriesAttribute(100),
    PubSubStageRetryJitterAttribute(1, 5),
    PubSubPublishTimeoutAttribute(60.seconds)))
Sink.fromGraph(new PubSubSink(PubSubTopic("foo-project", "foo-topic"))).withAttributes(attributes)

Using the Cloud Pub/Sub Client

The sink and the source both make use of a custom client library implemented using the gRPC API definitions published by Google. This client can be used as a standalone Pub/Sub client even if you are not interested in using Akka streams.

In almost all cases, you should be using the RetryingPubSubClient which supports customizable retry policies using the Atmos library. Custom retry policies and retry execution contexts need to be provided as implicit parameters to the client when it is created. See com.qubit.pubsub.client.retry.RetryPolicyDefaults for the default values used for these parameters.

Creating the default client:

val client = RetryingPubSubClient(PubSubGrpcClient())

Overriding the Pub/Sub endpoint and transport security (for tests using the Pub/Sub emulator):

val config = PubSubApiConfig(apiHost = "localhost", apiPort = "8897", tlsEnabled = false)
val client = RetryingPubSubClient(PubSubGrpcClient(config))

Development

Running Tests

The integration tests require the Pub/Sub emulator to be running.

On a new terminal window:

mkdir -p /tmp/pubsub && gcloud beta emulators pubsub start --data-dir /tmp/pubsub

On another terminal window:

Change directory to source root and

eval $(gcloud beta emulators pubsub env-init --data-dir /tmp/pubsub)
sbt test it:test
