A Producer and a Consumer service that will be connected through a Queue

System Architecture

Producer

  • API exposed via HTTP
  • Receives data in JSON format
  • Puts the JSON it received in the queue

Build with FastAPI and aio_pika

Consumer

  • Listens to the queue
  • Appends the records to an output.txt file

Built with pika

Development

If using vscode, a devcontainer configuration for local development is available.

The app uses flake8 for code linting and mypy for type checking, and uses pytest to run unit and integration tests.

Usage

The Makefile contains the commands to run the app.

Use the env.example to configure the environment variables in .env.

After configuring the .env file, start the app by running make start-app. This will pull the images, build then start the containers.

After it is complete, access http://localhost:8000/docs to see the swagger documentation of the producer api. You can also check the logs by running make logs-app.

Use the endpoint /process to send a message to the queue. If it returns success, the message was put in the queue successfully. If the logs were opened, you will be able to see something like the following:

producer_1  | 2021-06-13 17:39:34.569 | INFO     | main.py:90 @process - Sent {'hello': 'world'} to queue default
...
consumer_1  | 2021-06-13 17:39:34.564 | INFO     | main.py:37 @callback -  [✓] Received b'{"hello": "world"}' on queue default

Now, check the file output.txt, in the same folder as the docker-compose.yml to see the message added to the end of the file.
