DarkPrism

Simple and straightforward event dispatching for ruby.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'dark_prism'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install dark_prism

Usage

Configuration

Here is an example of a DarkPrism configuration file that can be placed under Rails' initializers directory.

DarkPrism.configure do |config|
  config.register_listeners(Listeners::Base)
  config.gcloud do |gcloud_config|
    gcloud_config.project_id = gcloud_project_id
    gcloud_config.credentials = credentials
  end
end

Listeners::Base class example:

module Listeners
  class Base
    def self.listeners
      {
        user_created: [Listeners::Users::Created.new]
      }.freeze
    end
  end
end

module Listeners
  module Users
    class Created
      include DarkPrism::Dispatch

      def user_created(user)
        dispatch_pubsub(:user_created, user)
      end
    end
  end
end

Once you've configured DarkPrism, dispatching events is quiet easy. First you need to include the Dispatch module as follows:

include DarkPrism::Dispatch

Once it's included, you can dispatch events through one the following three methods:

dispatch_event(event_name, obj)

This method dispatches an object asynchronously to all available listeners to the event.

Example:

dispatch_event(:my_event, some_object)

dispatch_pubsub(topic_name, message, attributes = nil)

This method dispatches an object synchronously to a google pubsub topic.

Example:

dispatch_pubsub(:my_event, some_object, { foo: :bar })

dispatch_pubsub_async(topic_name, message, attributes = nil)

This method dispatches an object asynchronously to a google pubsub topic.

Example:

dispatch_pubsub_async(:my_event, some_object, { foo: :bar })
