kafru
kafru is a Rust crate designed for efficient task queue management, inspired by the task queue systems found in other programming environments. The name "kafru" is derived from the "Kafra" system in the popular game Ragnarok Online.
This library offers robust background task execution with parallel processing through multithreading, enabling tasks to run concurrently and efficiently. Additionally, kafru features advanced scheduling capabilities, utilizing cron for precise task timing. It integrates seamlessly with SurrealDB for comprehensive management of queues, metrics, and schedules, ensuring reliable and organized task execution.
Features
- Task Registry: Manage and organize a collection of structs designed for task execution.
- Scheduler: Utilize cron-based scheduling to define when tasks are pushed to the queue, with options to set start and end times.
- Queue: Maintain a list of tasks awaiting execution.
- Worker: Execute tasks from the queue, referencing the task registry to determine the appropriate struct for each task.
- SurrealDB Integration: Store and manage scheduling details, queue information, and metrics using SurrealDB.
Installation
cargo add kafru
Usage
1. Run SurrealDB
For testing, you can start SurrealDB using an in-memory database:
cargo test -- --nocapture --test-threads=1
surreal start -u kafru_admin -p kafru_password -b 0.0.0.0:4030 --allow-all memory
For running SurrealDB in file mode, refer to the SurrealDB documentation.
2. Environment Variables
The following environment variables can be used to configure the database:
Key | Description | Default Value |
---|---|---|
KAFRU_DB_USERNAME |
The database username. | kafru_admin |
KAFRU_DB_PASSWORD |
The database password. | kafru_password |
KAFRU_DB_PORT |
The port number of the database. | 4030 |
KAFRU_DB_HOST |
The database host or IP address. | 127.0.0.1 |
KAFRU_DB_NAMESPACE |
The database namespace, useful for separating production and testing databases. | kafru |
KAFRU_DB_NAME |
The database name. | kafru_db |
Registering Task Structs to the Task Registry
The task registry stores a collection of task structs that contain the logic to be executed.
3. Create a Task Struct
- Your struct must implement the
TaskHandler
trait. - Define the code to execute within the
async fn run(&self, _params: std::collections::HashMap<String, Value>) -> Result<(), String>
method.
Sample
use async_trait::async_trait;
use kafru::task::TaskHandler;
use serde_json::Value;
use std::collections::HashMap;
pub struct MySampleStruct;
#[async_trait]
impl TaskHandler for MySampleStruct {
async fn run(&self, _params: HashMap<String, Value>) -> Result<(), String> {
let x = 1; // Replace this with your logic.
let total = x + 1;
// Perform your task logic here.
Ok(())
}
}
4. Register the Struct to the Task Registry
- After defining the task struct, register it in the task registry by providing a name for the struct.
Sample
use async_trait::async_trait;
use kafru::task::{TaskHandler, TaskRegistry};
use serde_json::Value;
use std::collections::HashMap;
pub struct MySampleStruct;
#[async_trait]
impl TaskHandler for MySampleStruct {
async fn run(&self, _params: HashMap<String, Value>) -> Result<(), String> {
// Task logic here.
Ok(())
}
}
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let mut task_registry: TaskRegistry = TaskRegistry::new().await;
task_registry.register("mytesthandler".to_string(), || Box::new(MySampleStruct)).await;
}
5. Running the Worker and Scheduler via the Manager
To execute tasks using both the worker (watcher) and the scheduler, follow these steps:
use std::sync::Arc;
use kafru::manager::Manager;
use kafru::task::TaskRegistry;
// Initialize the Manager struct.
let mut manager: Manager = Manager::new().await;
// Initialize the Task Registry struct and register the task.
let mut task_registry: TaskRegistry = TaskRegistry::new().await;
task_registry.register("mytesthandler".to_string(), || {
Box::new(MySampleStruct {
message: "Hello World".to_string(),
})
}).await;
// Share the task_registry using Arc for thread safety.
let task_registry: Arc<TaskRegistry> = Arc::new(task_registry);
// Run the Worker, specifying the queue name, number of threads, the task registry, and task poll interval (in seconds).
let _ = manager.worker("default".to_string(), 5, task_registry.clone(), 15).await;
// (Optional) Run the Scheduler by specifying the scheduler name and interval (in seconds).
let _ = manager.scheduler("kafru_test_scheduler".to_string(), 5).await;
// Optionally, wait for both the worker and scheduler to finish. This will prevent the function from exiting prematurely.
let _ = manager.wait().await;
Explanation
- Task Registration: Registers a task struct (
MySampleStruct
) in the task registry. - Task Registry: Shared using
Arc
to enable safe concurrent access in a multi-threaded environment. - Worker: Runs tasks from the queue, controlled by parameters such as:
queue_name
: Name of the queue to pull tasks from.num_threads
: Number of threads to handle task execution.task_registry
: Registry that contains the task structs.poll_interval
: Polling interval (in seconds) to check for new tasks.
- Scheduler: (Optional) Runs scheduled tasks at specified intervals, similar to cron jobs.
- Join: Ensures that both the worker and scheduler keep running without the program exiting prematurely.
