Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[Unreleased]

Added

• Extension methods for IConsumerBuilder, IProducerBuilder, and IReaderBuilder for setting a StateChangedHandler without a cancellation token

Changed

• The following internal exceptions are now public
  • ChannelNotReadyException (should be ignored when logging exceptions)
  • ConsumerNotFoundException (from the broker, but indicates an internal problem)
  • ServiceNotReadyException (the broker is not ready)
  • TooManyRequestsException (the broker is getting too many requests)

[2.1.0] - 2022-02-02

Added

• Support for on the fly authentication (AuthChallenge)
• The IAuthentication interface for implementing custom authentication
• IPulsarClientBuilder.Authentication(IAuthentication authentication) for using custom authentication
• The AuthenticationFactory with support for:
  • Token(string token)
  • Token(Func<CancellationToken, ValueTask<string>> tokenSupplier)

Deprecated

• IPulsarClientBuilder.AuthenticateUsingToken(string token) is marked as obsolete. Use Authentication(AuthenticationFactory.Token(...)) instead

[2.0.1] - 2021-11-12

Changed

• Only the version number changed. Something went wrong (in the .NET 6 target) when building the NuGet package for release 2.0.0

[2.0.0] - 2021-11-12

Added

• .NET 6 added as a target framework
• Tracing support following the guidelines from the OpenTelemetry project
  • Sending a message will create a producer trace and add tracing metadata to the message
  • The ‘Process’ extension method for IConsumer<TMessage> is no longer experimental and will create a consumer trace
  • The ‘GetConversationId’ extension method for IMessage has been added
  • The ‘SetConversationId’ and ‘GetConversationId’ extension methods for MessageMetadata have been added
• The client will send a ‘ping’ if there has been no activity on the connection for 30 seconds. This default can be changed by setting the ‘KeepAliveInterval’ on the IPulsarClientBuilder

Changed

• Breaking: Sending a message without metadata is now an extension method and therefore no longer part of the ISend<TMessage> (and thereby IProducer<TMessage>) interface
• IMessageRouter: ChoosePartition(MessageMetadata? messageMetadata, int numberOfPartitions) -> ChoosePartition(MessageMetadata messageMetadata, int numberOfPartitions)
• The default behavior for the IOException has changed from ‘Rethrow’ to ‘Retry’
• The default behavior for the MetadataException has changed from ‘Retry’ to ‘Rethrow’, meaning that it will fault the consumer, reader, and/or producer

[1.1.2] - 2021-07-05

Fixed

• The partitioned producer didn't pass metadata to the message router

[1.1.1] - 2021-07-05

Fixed

• The producer ignored message metadata provided by the user

[1.1.0] - 2021-06-29

Added

• The producer now supports partitioned topics
• The IMessageRouter interface with the RoundRobinPartitionRouter (default) and SinglePartitionRouter implementations
• The producer builder accepts a custom implementation of IMessageRouter

Changed

• The producer state can now be ‘PartiallyConnected’
• The KeyBytes property on MessageMetadata returned null if the key was set via a string. Now it will return string keys as UTF8 bytes

Fixed

• Autogenerate a consumer and reader name when it's not explicitly set by the user

[1.0.2] - 2021-04-30

Fixed

• Closing a consumer or reader while the broker is streaming messages could take down the connection causing other consumers, readers, and producers of the connection to reconnect
• In some circumstances, the protocol bytes could be misread leading to wrong message parsing

[1.0.1] - 2021-03-30

Fixed

• Creating a producer with a schema for a non-existing topic failed

[1.0.0] - 2021-03-17

Added

• A number of resilience, correctness, and performance improvements
• The optional listener name can be set via the PulsarClientBuilder
• Experimental: Added an extension method for IConsumer that will ‘Process’ and auto-acknowledge messages while creating an Activity (useful for doing tracing)
• Schema support for the following types
  • Boolean
  • Bytes (using byte[] and ReadOnlySequence<byte>)
  • String (UTF-8, UTF-16, and US-ASCII)
  • INT8, INT16, INT32, and INT64
  • Float and Double
  • Time (using TimeSpan)
  • Timestamp and Date (using DateTime)

Changed

• Breaking: Building a producer will now create an IProducer<T>
  The non-generic IProducer interface is still there, but messages can only be sent (ISend) with IProducer<T>
• Breaking: Building a reader or consumer will now create an IConsumer<T> or IReader<T>
  The non-generic IReader and IConsumer are still there, but messages can only be consumed/read (IReceive) with IConsumer<T> and IReader<T>
• Breaking: Receiving a message with now return an IMessage<T> instead of the Message class (which is now internal)
  The non-generic IMessage can be used if ‘Value()’ (decoding the ‘Data’ bytes) is not used (when just handling raw messages)
• Breaking: The message builder is now generic
• Setting an Action and Func StateChangedHandler on the ConsumerBuilder, ReaderBuilder, and ProducerBuilder are now extension methods
• Setting an Action and Func ExceptionHandler on the PulsarClientBuilder are now extension methods

Fixed

• When the broker sends a CommandClose[Producer/Consumer] all in-flight (and following) requests to the broker are ignored.
  Even though we reconnect the consumer, reader, or producer the tasks for the in-flight requests will hang as long as the connection is kept alive by other producers/consumers/readers.
  This situation is now handled and the requests will be sent again on the new connection.

[0.11.0] - 2021-02-21

Added

• The Consumer and Reader now share the IReceive interface for receiving a single message: ValueTask<Message> Receive(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
• The Consumer and Reader now share the ISeek interface for seeking on message-id and publish time
• The Consumer and Reader now share the IGetLastMessageId interface for getting the last message-id on a topic
• The Consumer, Reader, and Producer now share the IState interface adding ‘OnStateChangeFrom’ and ‘OnStateChangeTo’
• The PulsarClient, Consumer, Reader, and Producer now have the read-only property ‘ServiceUrl’
• The Consumer now have the read-only property ‘SubscriptionName’
• All message compression types are now supported (listed below). Please read this compression how-to
  • LZ4
  • SNAPPY
  • ZLIB
  • ZSTD

Changed

• MessageId.ToString() now returns a string matching that of other clients: “{LedgerId}:{EntryId}:{Partition}:{BatchIndex}”
• A lot of methods were made into extension methods and now require a using statement for ‘DotPulsar.Extensions’
  • Producer.StateChangedTo(ProducerState state, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Producer.StateChangedFrom(ProducerState state, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Producer.Send(byte[] data, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Producer.Send(ReadOnlyMemory<byte> data, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Producer.Send(MessageMetadata metadata, byte[] data, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Producer.Send(MessageMetadata metadata, ReadOnlyMemory<byte> data, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Consumer.Acknowledge(Message message, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Consumer.AcknowledgeCumulative(Message message, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Consumer.StateChangedTo(ConsumerState state, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Consumer.StateChangedFrom(ConsumerState state, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Consumer.Messages(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Consumer.Seek(DateTime publishTime, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Consumer.Seek(DateTimeOffset publishTime, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Reader.StateChangedTo(ReaderState state, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Reader.StateChangedFrom(ReaderState state, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Reader.Messages(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Reader.Seek(DateTime publishTime, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • Reader.Seek(DateTimeOffset publishTime, CancellationToken cancellationToken)

Fixed

• Before the Consumer and Reader would throw an ArgumentOutOfRangeException if they encountered a compressed message. Now they will throw a CompressionException if the compression type is not supported
• DotPulsarEventSource (performance counters) was only enabled for .NET Standard 2.1. Now it's enabled for all target frameworks except .NET Standard 2.0
