Connect to your cluster using the Rust client
This document describes how to connect to a cluster through a Rust client, and use the Rust producer and consumer to produce and consume messages to and from a topic. The Rust client supports connecting to a Pulsar cluster through either OAuth2 or Token authentication.
Note
This document assumes that you have created a Pulsar cluster and a service account, and have granted the service account produce
and consume
permissions to the namespace for the target topic.
Prerequisites
See the minimum supported versions required for the underlying libraries for more details.
Connect to your cluster through OAuth2 authentication
To connect a Pulsar cluster through OAuth2 authentication, follow these steps.
Step 1: Get the broker service URL of your cluster
To get the service URL of a Pulsar cluster through the StreamNative Console, follow these steps.
On the left navigation pane, in the Admin area, click Pulsar Clusters.
Select the Details tab, and in the Access Points area, click Copy at the end of the row of the service URL.
Step 2: Get the OAuth2 credential file of your service account
To get an OAuth2 credential file of a service account through the StreamNative Console, follow these steps.
On the left navigation pane, click Service Accounts.
In the row of the service account you want to use, in the Key File column, click the Download icon to download the OAuth2 credential file to your local directory.
The OAuth2 credential file should be something like this:
{ "type": "SN_SERVICE_ACCOUNT", "client_id": "CLIENT_ID", "client_secret": "CLIENT_SECRET", "client_email": "[email protected]", "issuer_url": "https://auth.streamnative.cloud" }
Step 3: Connect to your cluster
For a complete example of how to connect to a cluster through the Rust client, see Rust client examples.
Create a Rust consumer to consume messages
You can create and configure a Rust consumer to consume messages using the OAuth2 credential file as follows. For more information about the placeholders in the code sample, see parameters for OAuth2 authentication.
use futures::TryStreamExt;
use pulsar::{Consumer, ConsumerOptions, Pulsar, SubType, TokioExecutor};
use pulsar::authentication::oauth2::{OAuth2Authentication, OAuth2Params};
use pulsar::consumer::InitialPosition;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), pulsar::Error> {
env_logger::init();
let addr = "${brokerServiceURL}".to_string();
let mut builder = Pulsar::builder(addr, TokioExecutor);
builder = builder.with_auth_provider(OAuth2Authentication::client_credentials(OAuth2Params {
issuer_url: "https://auth.streamnative.cloud/".to_string(),
credentials_url: "file:///YOUR-KEY-FILE-PATH".to_string(), // Absolute path of your downloaded key file
audience: Some("urn:sn:pulsar:${orgName}:${instanceName}".to_string()),
scope: None,
}));
let pulsar: Pulsar<_> = builder.build().await?;
let mut consumer: Consumer<String, _> = pulsar
.consumer()
.with_topic("persistent://${tenant}/${namespace}/${topic}")
.with_subscription_type(SubType::Exclusive)
.with_subscription("${subscription}")
.with_options(ConsumerOptions::default()
.with_initial_position(InitialPosition::Earliest))
.build()
.await?;
let mut counter = 0usize;
while let Some(msg) = consumer.try_next().await? {
consumer.ack(&msg).await?;
let payload = match msg.deserialize() {
Ok(payload) => payload,
Err(e) => {
println!("could not deserialize message: {:?}", e);
break;
}
};
counter += 1;
println!("Received message '{:?}' id='{:?}'", payload, msg.message_id());
if counter > 10 {
consumer.close().await.expect("Unable to close consumer");
break;
}
}
Ok(())
}
Create a Rust producer to produce messages
You can create and configure a Rust producer to produce messages using the OAuth2 credential file as follows. For more information about the placeholders in the code sample, see parameters for OAuth2 authentication.
use pulsar::{Pulsar, TokioExecutor};
use pulsar::authentication::oauth2::{OAuth2Authentication, OAuth2Params};
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), pulsar::Error> {
env_logger::init();
let addr = "${brokerServiceURL}".to_string();
let mut builder = Pulsar::builder(addr, TokioExecutor);
builder = builder.with_auth_provider(OAuth2Authentication::client_credentials(OAuth2Params {
issuer_url: "https://auth.streamnative.cloud/".to_string(),
credentials_url: "file:///YOUR-KEY-FILE-PATH".to_string(), // Absolute path of your downloaded key file
audience: Some("urn:sn:pulsar:${orgName}:${instanceName}".to_string()),
scope: None,
}));
let pulsar: Pulsar<_> = builder.build().await?;
let mut producer = pulsar
.producer()
.with_topic("persistent://${tenant}/${namespace}/${topic}")
.build()
.await?;
let mut counter = 0usize;
loop {
producer
.send(format!("Hello-{}", counter))
.await?
.await
.unwrap();
counter += 1;
println!("{counter} messages");
if counter > 10 {
producer.close().await.expect("Unable to close connection");
break;
}
}
Ok(())
}
Parameters for OAuth2 authentication
${brokerServiceURL}
: the broker service URL of your Pulsar cluster.credentials_url
: your downloaded OAuth2 credential. This parameter supports the following two pattern formats:file:///path/to/file
: the path to your downloaded OAuth2 credential file.data:application/json;base64,<base64-encoded value>
: the credential file content encoded into Base64 format.
audience
: the Uniform Resource Name (URN), which is a combination of theurn:sn:pulsar
, your organization name, and your Pulsar instance name.${orgName}
: the name of your organization.${instanceName}
: the name of your instance.
${tenant}/${namespace}/${topic}
: the full name of the topic for message production & consumption. It is a combination of the tenant name, the namespace name and the topic name.${subscription}
: the name of the subscription that will determine how messages are delivered.
Connect to your cluster through Token authentication
To connect a Pulsar cluster through Token authentication, follow these steps.
Step 1: Get the broker service URL of your cluster
To get the service URL of a Pulsar cluster through the StreamNative Console, follow these steps.
On the left navigation pane, in the Admin area, click Pulsar Clusters.
Select the Details tab, and in the Access Points area, click Copy at the end of the row of the service URL.
Step 2: Get the Token of your service account
Note
- Before getting the token of a service account, verify that the service account is authorized as a superuser or an admin of the tenants and namespaces.
- A token has a system-defined Time-To-Live (TTL) of 7 days. Before a token expires, ensure that you generate a new token for your service account.
To get a token using the StreamNative Console, follow these steps.
On the left navigation pane, click Service Accounts.
In the row of the service account you want to use, in the Token column, click Generate new token, then click the Copy icon to copy the token to your clipboard.
Step 3: Connect to your cluster
For a complete example of how to connect to a cluster through the Rust client, see Rust client examples.
Create a Rust consumer to consume messages
You can create and configure a Rust consumer to consume messages using Token authentication as follows. For more information about the placeholders in the code sample, see parameters for Token authentication.
