Python Client for Google Cloud Pub / Sub
========================================

|beta| |pypi| |versions|

`Google Cloud Pub / Sub`_ is a fully-managed real-time messaging service that
allows you to send and receive messages between independent applications. You
can leverage Cloud Pub/Sub’s flexibility to decouple systems and components
hosted on Google Cloud Platform or elsewhere on the Internet. By building on
the same technology Google uses, Cloud Pub / Sub is designed to provide “at
least once” delivery at low latency with on-demand scalability to 1 million
messages per second (and beyond).

Publisher applications can send messages to a ``topic`` and other applications
can subscribe to that topic to receive the messages. By decoupling senders and
receivers, Google Cloud Pub/Sub allows developers to communicate between
independently written applications.

Quick Start
-----------

In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps:

1. `Select or create a Cloud Platform project.`_
2. `Enable billing for your project.`_
3. `Enable the Google Cloud Pub / Sub API.`_
4. `Setup Authentication.`_

.. _Select or create a Cloud Platform project.: https://console.cloud.google.com/project
.. _Enable billing for your project.: https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/modify-project#enable_billing_for_a_project
.. _Enable the Google Cloud Pub / Sub API.:  https://cloud.google.com/pubsub
.. _Setup Authentication.: https://googleapis.github.io/google-cloud-python/latest/core/auth.html

Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Install this library in a `virtualenv`_ using pip. `virtualenv`_ is a tool to
create isolated Python environments. The basic problem it addresses is one of
dependencies and versions, and indirectly permissions.

With `virtualenv`_, it's possible to install this library without needing system
install permissions, and without clashing with the installed system
dependencies.

    <your-env>\Scripts\activate
    <your-env>\Scripts\pip.exe install google-cloud-pubsub


Example Usage
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Publishing
^^^^^^^^^^

To publish data to Cloud Pub/Sub you must create a topic, and then publish
messages to it

.. code-block:: python

    import os
    from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

    publisher = pubsub_v1.PublisherClient()
    topic_name = 'projects/{project_id}/topics/{topic}'.format(
        project_id=os.getenv('GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT'),
        topic='MY_TOPIC_NAME',  # Set this to something appropriate.
    )
    publisher.create_topic(topic_name)
    publisher.publish(topic_name, b'My first message!', spam='eggs')

To learn more, consult the `publishing documentation`_.

.. _publishing documentation: https://googleapis.github.io/google-cloud-python/latest/pubsub/publisher/index.html


Subscribing
^^^^^^^^^^^

To subscribe to data in Cloud Pub/Sub, you create a subscription based on
the topic, and subscribe to that, passing a callback function.

.. code-block:: python

    import os
    from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

    subscriber = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()
    topic_name = 'projects/{project_id}/topics/{topic}'.format(
        project_id=os.getenv('GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT'),
        topic='MY_TOPIC_NAME',  # Set this to something appropriate.
    )
    subscription_name = 'projects/{project_id}/subscriptions/{sub}'.format(
        project_id=os.getenv('GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT'),
        sub='MY_SUBSCRIPTION_NAME',  # Set this to something appropriate.
    )
    subscriber.create_subscription(
        name=subscription_name, topic=topic_name)

    def callback(message):
        print(message.data)
        message.ack()

    future = subscriber.subscribe(subscription_name, callback)

The future returned by the call to ``subscriber.subscribe`` can be used to
block the current thread until a given condition obtains:

.. code-block:: python

    try:
        future.result()
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        future.cancel()
