BunBun-Worker

❗ Disclaimer
This crate is still under development, meaning api's may change on every commit...

Introduction

bunbun-worker was made to provide a panic-safe multithreaded job-runner server & client for microservices and alike. It supports RPC and regular (non-rpc) calls. As of right now only rabbitmq is supported but gRPC will be added too.

Rpc

Remote procedure call, as it's name says is a message that can be sent to a remote microservice to be processed and the result to be returned. In bunbun-worker it's implemented by the following example:

sequenceDiagram
    ServiceA->>+ServiceB: Hey, could you do this job for me?
    Note right of ServiceB: ServiceB does the job
    ServiceB->>+ServiceA: Sure, here is the data result

1. ServiceA creates a callback queue that the response shall be sent to.
2. ServiceA sends a json job message to an already declared queue on a rabbitmq server.
3. ServiceB is listening on that queue for messages and spawns a new thread for each received.
4. Once ServiceB has finished the work, using the received messages header it responds to the callback queue with the correlation-id.

Non-rpc

In bunbun-worker regular jobs are called non-rpc jobs, indicating that the response is not awaited.

Installation

Get directly from crates.io

[dependencies]
bunbun-worker = { version = "0.2.0" }

or get it directly from source

[dependencies]
bunbun-worker = { git = "https://git.4o1x5.dev/4o1x5/bunbun-worker", branch = "master" }

Usage

This example uses DTO as a way to transfer data between services.
Add futures via cargo add futures

// server.rs
#[derive(Clone, Debug)]
pub struct State {
    pub something: String,
}

#[derive(Deserialize, Serialize, Clone, Debug)]
pub struct EmailJob {
    send_to: String,
    contents: String,
}
#[derive(Deserialize, Serialize, Clone, Debug, PartialEq)]
pub struct EmailJobResult {
    contents: String,
}
impl RPCTask for EmailJob {
        type ErroredResult = EmailJobResultError;
        type Result = EmailJobResult;
        type State = State;
        fn run(
            self,
            state: Arc<Self::State>,
        ) -> futures::prelude::future::BoxFuture<'static, Result<Self::Result, Self::ErroredResult>>
        {
            async move {
                tracing::info!("Sent email to {}", self.send_to);
                tokio::time::sleep(Duration::from_secs(2)).await;
                return Ok(EmailJobResult {
                    contents: self.contents.clone(),
                });
            }
            .boxed()
        }
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let mut listener = Worker::new(
        env::var("AMQP_SERVER_URL").unwrap(),
        WorkerConfig::default(),
    )
    .await;
    listener
        .add_rpc_consumer::<EmailJob>(
            Arc::new(State {
                something: "test".into(),
            }),
            ListenerConfig::default("emailjob").set_prefetch_count(100),
        );
    listener.start_all_listeners().await;
}

// client.rs
#[derive(Deserialize, Serialize, Clone, Debug)]
pub struct EmailJob {
    send_to: String,
    contents: String,
}
#[derive(Deserialize, Serialize, Clone, Debug, PartialEq)]
pub struct EmailJobResult {
    contents: String,
}

// Implement the client side trait, so the caller knows what the return types are
impl RPCClientTask for EmailJob {
    type ErroredResult = EmailJobResultError;
    type Result = EmailJobResult;
}


#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
 let client = Client::new(env::var("AMQP_SERVER_URL").unwrap().as_str())
            .await
            .unwrap();
        let result = client
            .rpc_call::<EmailJob>(
                EmailJob {
                    send_to: "someone".into(),
                    contents: "something".into(),
                },
                BasicCallOptions::default("emailjob").timeout(Duration::from_secs(3)),
            )
            .await
            .unwrap();
        println!("{:?}",result);
}

Message versioning

In this crate message versioning is done by including v1.0.0 or such on the end of the queue name, instead of including it in the headers of a message. This reduces the amount of redelivered messages.
The following example will send a job to a queue named emailjob-v1.0.0.

let result = client
        .rpc_call::<EmailJob>(
            EmailJob {
                send_to: "someone".into(),
                contents: "something".into(),
            },
            BasicCallOptions::default("emailjob")
                .timeout(Duration::from_secs(3))
                .message_version("v1.0.0")
        )
        .await
        .unwrap();

Limitations

1. Currently some unwrap()'s are called inside the code and may results in panics (not in the job-runner).
2. limited API

Bugs department

Since the code is hosted on a private git instance (as of right now) any bugs shall be discussed in 4o1x5's project room.
