README

Simple extension to the Illuminate/Queue queue system used in Laravel and Lumen.

Using this connector allows SQS messages originating from a SNS subscription to be worked on with Illuminate\Queue\Jobs\SqsJob.

This is especially useful in a miroservice architecture where multiple services subscribe to a common topic with their queues and publish an event to SNS.

Amazon SQS & SNS Extended Client Library

The Amazon SQS Extended Client Library for Laravel enables you to manage Amazon SQS message payloads with Amazon S3. This is especially useful for storing and retrieving messages with a message payload size greater than the current SQS limit of 256 KB, up to a maximum of 2 GB. Specifically, you can use this library to:

• Specify whether message payloads are always stored in Amazon S3 or only when a message's size exceeds a max size (defaults to 256 KB).
• Send a message that references a single message object stored in an Amazon S3 bucket.
• Get the corresponding message object from an Amazon S3 bucket.

- Note: This package under development not ready for production -

Requirements

• Laravel (tested with version >=7.0)

Installation

1. First create a disk that will hold all of your large SQS payloads.

We highly recommend you use a private bucket when storing SQS payloads. Payloads can contain sensitive information and should never be shared publicly.

1. Run composer require ratheeps/laravel-pub-sub-messaging to install the package.

2. Then, add the following queue settings to your queue.php file.

<?php
return [
    'connections' => [
        'pub-sub-messaging-sqs' => [
            'driver' => 'pub-sub-messaging-sqs',
            'key' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_ACCESS_ID'),
            'secret' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
            'prefix' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_SQS_PREFIX', 'https://sqs.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/your-account-id'),
            'queue' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_SQS_QUEUE', 'default'),
            'suffix' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_SQS_SUFFIX'),
            'region' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_DEFAULT_REGION', 'us-east-1'),
            'after_commit' => false,
            'disk_options' => [
                'always_store' => true,
                'cleanup' => false,
                'disk' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_DISK', 'pub_sub_messaging_s3'),
                'prefix' => '',
            ],
        ],
    ],
];

4 Then, add the following disk settings to your filesystems.php file.

<?php
return [
    'disks' => [
        'pub_sub_messaging_s3' => [
            'driver' => 's3',
            'key' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_ACCESS_ID'),
            'secret' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
            'region' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_DEFAULT_REGION'),
            'bucket' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_BUCKET'),
            'url' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_URL'),
            'endpoint' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_ENDPOINT'),
            'use_path_style_endpoint' => env('AWS_USE_PATH_STYLE_ENDPOINT', false),
        ],
    ],
];

1. You can optionally publish the config file with php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Ratheeps\PubSubMessaging\PubSubMessagingServiceProvider" --tag="config" this command Then, modify the following pub sub settings to your pub-sub-messaging.php file.

<?php
return [
    'default_topic' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_DEFAULT_TOPIC'),
    'default_auth_driver' => null,
    // map the jobs to subscribe SNS topics to handle the consuming events
    'map' => [
//        \App\Jobs\TestSQSJob::class => 'arn:aws:sns:ap-southeast-1:931616835216:modelEvent',
    ],
    'published_attributes' => [
        'id',
        'created_at',
        'updated_at'
    ],
    'sns' => [
        'key' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_ACCESS_KEY'),
        'secret' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
        'region' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_DEFAULT_REGION', 'us-east-1'),
        'disk_options' => [
            // Indicates when to send messages to S3., Allowed values are: ALWAYS, NEVER, IF_NEEDED.
            'store_payload' => 'IF_NEEDED',
            'disk' => env('PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_DISK', 'pub_sub_messaging_s3'),
            'prefix' => ''
        ]
    ]
];

1. You'll need to configure .env file

PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_ACCESS_ID=
PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=
PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=ap-south-1

PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_DEFAULT_TOPIC=
PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_AWS_BUCKET=
PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_DISK=pub_sub_messaging_s3

QUEUE_CONNECTION=pub-sub-messaging-sqs
PUB_SUB_MESSAGING_SQS_QUEUE=

1. Boot up your queues and profit without having to worry about SQS's 256KB limit :)

Consuming Event

Create a job like below to handle the event and then map that job to SNS topic in the pub-sub-messaging.php config file

<?php
use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;
use Illuminate\Queue\InteractsWithQueue;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Bus\Dispatchable;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log;

class TestSQSJob implements ShouldQueue
{
    use Dispatchable, InteractsWithQueue, Queueable, SerializesModels;

    protected $passedInData;

    /**
     * Create a new job instance.
     *
     * @param array $data
     */
    public function __construct(array $data)
    {
        // $data is array containing the msg content from SQS
        $this->passedInData = $data;
    }

    /**
     * Execute the job.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function handle()
    {
        Log::info(json_encode($this->passedInData));
        // Check laravel.log, it should now contain msg string.
    }
}

Published event

<?php
namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Ratheeps\PubSubMessaging\Traits\SNSPublisher;

class Post extends Model
{
    use SNSPublisher;

    /**
     * @var array
     * Optional (default value is [] )
     * Witch are the attributes should only from SNS message
     */
    static $publishedAttributes = [
        'id',
        'created_at',
        'updated_at'
    ];

    /**
     * @var array
     * Optional  (default value is [created','updated','deleted','restored'] )
     * Witch events should send to SNS
     */
    static $publishEvents = ['created', 'updated'];

    /**
     * @var string
     * Optional (default value is load from config )
     * Publish SNS topic
     */
    static $publishTopic = 'SampleTopic';
    /**
     * Or
     * static $publishTopic = [
     *  'created' => 'SampleTopic'
     * ];
     */
}
