node-reef-client

A nodejs client for the Reef arquitectural pattern

#How to Reef uses Amazon SQS queues, so you need an AWS account and the credentials to use it.

Set up

import { SqsBrokerFacade, ReefClient } from 'reef-client';
import bunyan from 'bunyan';

let log = bunyan.createLogger({
  name        : 'foo',
  level       : process.env.LOG_LEVEL || 'info',
  stream      : process.stdout,
  serializers : bunyan.stdSerializers
});

let brokerFacade = new SqsBrokerFacade({
    region: process.env.AWS_REGION,
    accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_ACCESSKEYID,
    secretAccessKey: process.env.AWS_SECRETACCESSKEY,
    clientDomain: "clientDomain",
    clientLane: "singleton"
});

log.info("Creating client");
let reefClient = new ReefClient(brokerFacade);

log.info('Adding listeners for info and error');
reefClient.on('info', (info) => { log.info(info); });

reefClient.on('error', (error) => { log.error(error); });

log.info('Client setup');
await reefClient.setup();

log.info('Client start');
await reefClient.start();

Making a request

There are three types of request:

-Commands: The ones that modify something in the server (Similar to a PUT/POST in HTTP)

  reefClient.execute(domain, lane, command, payload, options);

-Fire and forget: The ones that don't need an answer, is a special type of command

  reefClient.fireAndForget(domain, lane, command, payload, options);

-Queries: The ones that only make consult (Similar to a GET in HTTP)

  reefClient.query(domain, lane, command, payload, options);

Example:

let domain = "database",
    lane = "singleton",
    command = "SAVE_USER",
    payload = {
      user: snowflake,
      name: Example,
      lastName: Foo
    },
    options = {
      timeout: 3000 //in milisecconds, this is the default value if nothing is passed (do not apply to fireAndForget)
    }

let response;

try {
    response = await reefClient.execute(domain, lane, command, payload, options);
    log.info('Response: ', response);
} catch (e) {
    log.error("There was an error: ", e);
}

#How does it work

Each service has a request queue compose of the domain and lane. For example a queue full name will be:

serviceDomain-singleton-req

Each client has a response queue compose of the domain and lane. For example the queue name of the last example will be:

clientDomain-singleton-res

The service in the other side will send a message through that queue, and the cliente will process that.
