Documentation

Zeel Publisher

A Library meant to standardize the way zapi services interact with SNS/SQS.

Getting Started

Docker

The infrastructure of this library is designed to be run inside of various docker containers. Specifically there is a container for:

  • The python environment the library's code runs in
  • A jaeger tracing instance
  • The localstack AWS simulator

These containers can be viewed inside the project's docker-compose.yml

Because these containers are all needed to create a functioning local environment, proceeding without docker is NOT recommended. It can be installed using the docker for mac installer or via

brew cask install docker

The pipenv Virtual Environment

This service's dependencies are all managed with https://github.com/pypa/pipenv and are enumerated inside the project's Pipfile and Pipfile.lock files. Pipenv is a superset of Pip, and will create a virtual python environment (the .venv folder) for this Service. To that end, please ensure you have pipenv installed on your local machine.

brew install pipenv

Configuring your Virtual Environment

To create a virtual environment (the .venv directory) inside your project folder instead of your home (~) directory, save the following in your .bash_profile or .zshrc:

export PIPENV_VENV_IN_PROJECT=1

This is highly recommended for vscode users, as the project's linters and formatters are configured to use binaries installed to a local .venv

Running the Library's tests on Docker

Although tests can be run locally, it is recommended to run them through docker, where they will have access to the infrastructure they need. To do so you can use this command:

docker-compose run publisher-app bash test.sh

Modules

Event Publisher

A Class meant for publishing Event Messages to a single SNS topic.

Distribution

This Code is meant for distribution across multiple projects, namely our various zapi services which require zeel-publisher as a dependency. The library itself is hosted on PyPi and can be found at

https://pypi.org/project/zeel-publisher/

Versioning

Zeel publisher versioning follows the Semantic Versioning syntax:
