nats-requeue

This is a service that persists NATS messages to disk and retries sending them at a deferred time.

THIS IS STILL BEING IMPLEMENTED. IT IS NOT READY FOR USE.

Getting Started

Installing

go get github.com/nickpoorman/nats-requeue

This will retrieve the library and install the retry-queue command line utility into your $GOBIN path.

Configuration

Badger recommends running with GOMAXPROCS=128.

I would recommend setting your soft ulimit to 65535. Google how to do it on your OS.

AWS ECS

Uses

DLQ (dead letter queue)

How Requeue Works

All queue meta information is kept in memory and synced to disk.

Checkpointing

In memory meta for a queue consists of a Checkpoint. The checkpoint is used for seeking to the a key in Badger. This allows us to iterate directly between the events we are looking for in a time range.

Contributing

This project uses Flatbuffers to serialize messages. To build the protocol/*.fbs files you must have flatc installed and then run the following.

make protocol

Thanks

• NATS for an awesome distributed messaging system.
• This project uses dgraph-io/badger for storing the messages on disk.
