Installation
The recommended way to install the library is through Composer:
$ composer require basis-company/nats
The NKeys functionality requires Ed25519, which is provided in libsodium
extension or sodium_compat
package.
Connection
use Basis\Nats\Client; use Basis\Nats\Configuration; // this is default options, you can override anyone $configuration = new Configuration([ 'host' => 'localhost', 'jwt' => null, 'lang' => 'php', 'pass' => null, 'pedantic' => false, 'port' => 4222, 'reconnect' => true, 'timeout' => 1, 'token' => null, 'user' => null, 'nkey' => null, 'verbose' => false, 'version' => 'dev', ]); // default delay mode is constant - first retry be in 1ms, second in 1ms, third in 1ms $configuration->setDelay(0.001); // linear delay mode - first retry be in 1ms, second in 2ms, third in 3ms, fourth in 4ms, etc... $configuration->setDelay(0.001, Configuration::DELAY_LINEAR); // exponential delay mode - first retry be in 10ms, second in 100ms, third in 1s, fourth if 10 seconds, etc... $configuration->setDelay(0.01, Configuration::DELAY_EXPONENTIAL); $client = new Client($configuration); $client->ping(); // true
Connecting to a cluster with TLS enabled
Typically, when connecting to a cluster with TLS enabled the connection settings do not change. The client lib will automatically switch over to TLS 1.2. However, if you're using a self-signed certificate you may have to point to your local CA file using the tlsCaFile setting.
When connecting to a nats cluster that requires the client to provide TLS certificates use the tlsCertFile and tlsKeyFile to point at your local TLS certificate and private key file.
Nats Server documentation for:
Connection settings when connecting to a nats server that has TLS and TLS Client verify enabled.
use Basis\Nats\Client; use Basis\Nats\Configuration; // this is default options, you can override anyone $configuration = new Configuration([ 'host' => 'localhost', 'jwt' => null, 'lang' => 'php', 'pass' => null, 'pedantic' => false, 'port' => 4222, 'reconnect' => true, 'timeout' => 1, 'token' => null, 'user' => null, 'nkey' => null, 'verbose' => false, 'version' => 'dev', 'tlsCertFile' => "./certs/client-cert.pem", 'tlsKeyFile' => "./certs/client-key.pem", 'tlsCaFile' => "./certs/client-key.pem", ]); $configuration->setDelay(0.001); $client = new Client($configuration); $client->ping(); // true
Publish Subscribe
// queue usage example $queue = $client->subscribe('test_subject'); $client->publish('test_subject', 'hello'); $client->publish('test_subject', 'world'); // optional message fetch // if there are no updates null will be returned $message1 = $queue->fetch(); echo $message1->payload . PHP_EOL; // hello // locks until message is fetched from subject // to limit lock timeout, pass optional timeout value $message2 = $queue->next(); echo $message2->payload . PHP_EOL; // world $client->publish('test_subject', 'hello'); $client->publish('test_subject', 'batching'); // batch message fetching, limit argument is optional $messages = $queue->fetchAll(10); echo count($messages); // fetch all messages that are published to the subject client connection // queue will stop message fetching when another subscription receives a message // in advance you can time limit batch fetching $queue->setTimeout(1); // limit to 1 second $messages = $queue->fetchAll(); // reset subscription $client->unsubscribe($queue); // callback hell example $client->subscribe('hello', function ($message) { var_dump('got message', $message); // tester }); $client->publish('hello', 'tester'); $client->process(); // if you want to append some headers, construct payload manually use Basis\Nats\Message\Payload; $payload = new Payload('tester', [ 'Nats-Msg-Id' => 'payload-example' ]); $client->publish('hello', $payload);
Request Response
There is a simple wrapper over publish and feedback processing, so payload can be constructed manually same way.
$client->subscribe('hello.request', function ($name) { return "Hello, " . $name; }); // async interaction $client->request('hello.request', 'Nekufa1', function ($response) { var_dump($response); // Hello, Nekufa1 }); $client->process(); // process request // sync interaction (block until response get back) $client->dispatch('hello.request', 'Nekufa2'); // Hello, Nekufa2
JetStream Api Usage
use Basis\Nats\Stream\RetentionPolicy; use Basis\Nats\Stream\StorageBackend; $accountInfo = $client->getApi()->getInfo(); // account_info_response object $stream = $client->getApi()->getStream('mailer'); $stream->getConfiguration() ->setRetentionPolicy(RetentionPolicy::WORK_QUEUE) ->setStorageBackend(StorageBackend::MEMORY) ->setSubjects(['mailer.greet', 'mailer.bye']); // stream is created with given configuration $stream->create(); // and put some tasks so workers would be doing something $stream->put('mailer.greet', 'nekufa@gmail.com'); $stream->put('mailer.bye', 'nekufa@gmail.com'); var_dump($stream->info()); // can stream info // this should be set in your worker $greeter = $stream->getConsumer('greeter'); $greeter->getConfiguration()->setSubjectFilter('mailer.greet'); // consumer would be created would on first handle call $greeter->handle(function ($address) { mail($address, "Hi there!"); }); var_dump($greeter->info()); // can consumer info $goodbyer = $stream->getConsumer('goodbyer'); $goodbyer->getConfiguration()->setSubjectFilter('mailer.bye'); $goodbyer->create(); // create consumer if you don't want to handle anything right now $goodbyer->handle(function ($address) { mail($address, "See you later"); }); // you can configure batching and iteration count using chain api $goodbyer ->setBatching(2) // how many messages would be requested from nats stream ->setIterations(3) // how many times message request should be sent ->handle(function () { // if you need to break on next iteration simply call interrupt method // batch will be processed to the end and the handling would be stopped // $goodbyer->interrupt(); }); // consumer can be used via queue interface $queue = $goodbyer->getQueue(); while ($message = $queue->next()) { if (rand(1, 10) % 2 == 0) { mail($message->payload, "See you later"); $message->ack(); } else { // not ack with 1 second timeout $message->nack(1); } // stop processing if (rand(1, 10) % 2 == 10) { // don't forget to unsubscribe $client->unsubscribe($queue); break; } } // use fetchAll method to batch process messages // let's set batch size to 50 $queue = $goodbyer->setBatching(50)->create()->getQueue(); // fetching 100 messages provides 2 stream requests // limit message fetching to 1 second // it means no more that 100 messages would be fetched $messages = $queue->setTimeout(1)->fetchAll(100); $recipients = []; foreach ($messages as $message) { $recipients[] = (string) $message->payload; } mail_to_all($recipients, "See you later"); // ack all messages foreach ($messages as $message) { $message->ack(); } // you also can create ephemeral consumer // the only thing that ephemeral consumer is created as soon as object is created // you have to create full consumer configuration first use Basis\Nats\Consumer\Configuration as ConsumerConfiguration; use Basis\Nats\Consumer\DeliverPolicy; $configuration = (new ConsumerConfiguration($stream->getName())) ->setDeliverPolicy(DeliverPolicy::NEW) ->setSubjectFilter('mailer.greet'); $ephemeralConsumer = $stream->createEphemeralConsumer($configuration); // now you can use ephemeral consumer in the same way as durable consumer $ephemeralConsumer->handle(function ($address) { mail($address, "Hi there!"); }); // the only difference - you don't have to remove it manually, it will be deleted by NATS when socket connection is closed // be aware that NATS will not remove that consumer immediately, process can take few seconds var_dump( $ephemeralConsumer->getName(), $ephemeralConsumer->info(), ); // if you need to append some headers, construct payload manually use Basis\Nats\Message\Payload; $payload = new Payload('nekufa@gmail.com', [ 'Nats-Msg-Id' => 'single-send' ]); $stream->put('mailer.bye', $payload);
Microservices
The services feature provides a simple way to create microservices that leverage NATS.
In the example below, you will see an example of creating an index function for the posts microservice. The request can be accessed under "v1.posts" and then individual post by "v1.posts.{post_id}".
// Define a service $service = $client->service( 'PostsService', 'This service is responsible for handling all things post related.', '1.0' ); // Create the version group $version = $service->addGroup('v1'); // Create the index posts endpoint handler class IndexPosts implements \Basis\Nats\Service\EndpointHandler { public function handle(\Basis\Nats\Message\Payload $payload): array { // Your application logic return [ 'posts' => [] ]; } } // Create the index endpoint $version->addEndpoint("posts", IndexPosts::class); // Create the service group $posts = $version->addGroup('posts'); // View post endpoint $posts->addEndpoint( '*', function (\Basis\Nats\Message\Payload $payload) { $postId = explode('.', $payload->subject); $postId = $postId[count($postId)-1]; return [ 'post' => [] ]; } ); // Run the service $service->run();
Key Value Storage
$bucket = $client->getApi()->getBucket('bucket_name'); // basics $bucket->put('username', 'nekufa'); echo $bucket->get('username'); // nekufa // safe update (given revision) $entry = $bucket->getEntry('username'); echo $entry->value; // nekufa $bucket->update('username', 'bazyaba', $entry->revision); // delete value $bucket->delete('username'); // purge value history $bucket->purge('username'); // get bucket stats var_dump($bucket->getStatus()); // in advance, you can fetch all bucket values $bucket->update('email', 'nekufa@gmail.com'); var_dump($bucket->getAll()); // ['email' => 'nekufa@gmail.com', 'username' => 'nekufa']
Using NKeys with JWT
To use NKeys with JWT, simply provide them in the Configuration
options as jwt
and nkey
.
You can also provide a credentials file with CredentialsParser
use Basis\Nats\Client; use Basis\Nats\Configuration; use Basis\Nats\NKeys\CredentialsParser; $configuration = new Configuration( [ 'host' => 'localhost', 'port' => 4222 ], CredentialsParser::fromFile($credentialPath) ); $client = new Client($configuration);
Performance
Testing on AMD Ryzen 5 3600X with nats running in docker gives about 400k rps for publish and 330k rps for receive in non-verbose mode.
You can run tests on your environment.
