IRIS NestJS module

NestJS package for IRIS framework.

Install: npm i @iris-events/nestjs-iris

NestJS module setup

  import { IrisModule } from '@iris-events/nestjs-iris'

  @Module({
    imports: [
      IrisModule.forConfig({
        urlOrOpts: 'amqp://guest:guest@localhost:5672'
        ...
      }),
      ...
    ],
    ...
  })
  class AppModule {}
Options interface
  // configuration interface for IrisModule:
  interface IrisOptionsI {
    // default is `npm_package_name`
    serviceName?: string

    // AMQP Connection options
    urlOrOpts: string | {
      protocol?: string
      hostname?: string
      port?: number | string
      username?: string
      password?: string
      locale?: string
      frameMax?: number
      heartbeat?: number
      vhost?: string
    }

    /**
     * Passed to amqplib, see amqplib doc for more info
     */
    socketOptions?: any

    /**
     * How many times should iris try to reconnect when connection drops
     * setting to 0 or less means do not try to reconnect
     */
    reconnectTries: number

    /**
     * Reconnect interval
     */

    reconnectInterval: number

    /**
     * Multiply factor for reconnectInterval for each next time if reconnecting fails
     */
    reconnectFactor: number

    /**
     * When error occures during event processing, event is re-enqueued.
     * This setting specifies how many times should a single event be re-enqueued
     * before marked as failed.
     */
    maxMessageRetryCount: number


    // Global setting for message validation. Can be set per message via @Message decorator
    defaultValidationOptions?: {
      // Objects (messages) are transformed to corresponding classes before publishing
      // and when received using class transformer module.
      // See https://github.com/typestack/class-transformer for more info
      classTransform?: classTransformer.ClassTransformOptions

      // If false, object will not be validated against the decorated @Message class
      // structure, neither when publishing nor when received
      validate?: boolean | classValidator.ValidatorOptions
    }
  }


Decorators

@Message(config: MessageI, validationOptions?: ValidationOptions)

Message config interface
interface MessageI {
  /**
   * Name of exchange
   */
  name: string
  /**
   * Defaults to `fanout`
   */
  exchangeType?: ExchangeType
  routingKey?: string
  scope?: Scope
  ttl?: number
  deadLetter?: string
  /**
   * Max times this message should be sent to retry queue
   * before considered unhandled. Overrides default from
   * connection configuration.
   */
  maxRetry?: number
}

Class decorator, representing a specific message. Class transformer and class validator are used to transform objects to decorated classes.

Validation of messages and transformer options can be set globally via config or per message as a second argument with @Message decorator.

@Message({ name: 'foo' })
class Foo {
  @IsString() foo!: string
}


@MessageHandler(config?: MessageHandlerI, returnMessageType?: @Message())

Handler config interface
interface MessageHandlerI {
  bindingKeys?: string[] | string
  /**
   * If true, the queue will survive broker restarts (defaults to true)
   */
  durable?: boolean
  /**
   * If true, the queue will be deleted when the number of consumers drops to zero
   * (defaults to false)
   */
  autoDelete?: boolean
  /**
   * Amount of messages that can be received on queue at same time.
   * Set it to some low number (like 1) for events causing a long/resource heavy
   * tasks.
   */
  prefetch?: number
  messageDeliveryMode?: MessageDeliveryMode
}

Method decorator handling specific @Message events. Method must accept exactly one argument of class decorated with @Message.

Special argument classes:

  • any class decorated with @Message() can be used within the handler without any extra argument decorators.
  • a AmqpMessage class can be used to retrieve original Amqp message within the Handler
  • a MDC class can be used to retrieve an object with common "mdc" properties (usefull for logging compatible with Java IRIS counterparts)

If handler returns a result, it is treated as a produced message and is published if returnMessageType is specified for handler.

  • Minimal handler requirement
class Handler {

  @MessageHandler()
  handleFoo(foo: Foo): void {}

}
  • Special arguments and custom decorators
// custom param decorator
const MsgHeaderExtractorParam = createParamDecorator<
  string,
  ExecutionContext,
  string | undefined
>((header, ctx): string => {
  const msg = ctx.switchToRpc().getData<AmqpMessage>()

  return <string>msg.properties.headers![header]
})

class Handler {

  @MessageHandler()
  handleFoo(
    // original Amqp message
    // holds
    // {
    //   content: Buffer
    //   fields: amqplib.ConsumeMessageFields
    //   properties: amqplib.MessageProperties
    // }
    amqpMessage: AmqpMessage,
    // holds 
    // {
    //   sessionId?: string
    //   userId?: string
    //   clientTraceId?: string
    //   correlationId?: string
    //   eventType?: string
    //   clientVersion?: string
    // }
    mdc: MDC,
    // event we're handling
    foo: Foo,

    // custom arguments
    @MsgHeaderExtractorParam('x-y') xyHeader: string,
  ): void {}

}
  • Handler produces another message
@Message({ name: 'bar' })
class Bar {
  @IsString() bar!: string
}

class Handler {

  // Type of returned message needs to be specified as a second argument
  // of decorator
  @MessageHandler({}, Bar)
  handleFoo(foo: Foo): Bar {
    return { bar: 'bar bar' }
  }

}


@SnapshotMessageHandler(config?: SnapshotMessageHandlerI)

Snapshot handler config interface
interface SnapshotMessageHandlerI {
  resourceType: string
  prefetch?: number
}

Method decorator handling SnapshotRequested messages. Each resourceType should have its own handler.

class Handler {

  @SnapshotMessageHandler({ resourceType: 'foo' }, ResourceMessage)
  handleFooSnapshotRequest(evt: SnapshotRequested): ResourceMessage {
    return {
      ...evt,
      payload: { foo model for evt.resourceId }
    }
  }

  @SnapshotMessageHandler({ resourceType: 'bar' }, ResourceMessage)
  handleFooSnapshotRequest(evt: SnapshotRequested): ResourceMessage {
    return {
      ...evt,
      payload: { bar model for evt.resourceId }
    }
  }
}

Health Indicator

IRIS module provides IrisHealthModule and IrisHealthIndicator which can be used with @nestjs/terminus module.

Testing

IrisTestModule can be used to register IRIS module for testing. This will replace the default IrisServer with IrisTesstServer, which provides testing utilities:

  • clearQueues()
  • getSpyForHandlder(, )
  • getIrisHandlers()
  • getIrisHandlerMetas()

testing submodule also exports whole testing submodule from @iris-events/iris/testing submodule as irisTesting.

  import { IrisTestModule, irisTesting } from '@iris-events/nestjs-iris/testing'

  // configure within NestJS test module
  IrisTestModule.forConfig(
    {
      urlOrOpts: 'amqp://guest:guest@localhost:5672'
      ...
    },
    // mock function
    vi.fn() // or jest.fn etc
  )


  // get IrisTestServer instance
  const testServer = app.get(IrisTestServer).getSpyForMessage(MyMessage)

  const spy = testServer.getSpyForHandlder(MyHandler, 'handleFoo')

  // access @iris-events/testing utilities
  irisTesting.utilities.deleteExchange(...)
  irisTesting.utilities.requestSnapshot(...)
  irisTesting.utilities.subscribe(...)
  irisTesting.utilities.publishToFrontend(...)

Examples

See examples and tests folders for additional info. Example application can be run using npm run example

Example
import { Controller, Logger, Module } from '@nestjs/common'
import { NestFactory } from '@nestjs/core'
import { IsNumber, IsString } from 'class-validator'
import {
  IrisModule,
  IrisServer,
  Message,
  MessageHandler,
  publish,
} from '@iris-events/nestjs-iris'

@Message({ name: 'ping' })
class Ping {
  @IsString() ping!: string
  @IsNumber() count!: number
}

@Message({ name: 'pong' })
class Pong {
  @IsString() pong!: string
  @IsNumber() count!: number
}

@Controller()
class PingController {
  private readonly logger = new Logger('PingController')

  @MessageHandler()
  async handlePing(msg: Ping) {
    this.logger.log('Received ping', msg.ping, msg.count)
    await this.sleep()
    publish.getPublisher(Pong)({ pong: 'pong', count: msg.count + 1 })
  }

  @MessageHandler(undefined, Ping)
  async handlePong(msg: Pong): Promise<Ping> {
    this.logger.log('Received pong', msg.pong, msg.count)
    await this.sleep()
    return { ping: 'ping', count: msg.count + 1 }
  }

  async sleep() {
    await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 1500))
  }
}

@Module({
  imports: [
    IrisModule.forRoot({
      urlOrOpts: 'amqp://localhost',
    }),
  ],
  controllers: [PingController],
})
class App {}
