WaterDrop changelog

2.8.0 (2024-09-16)

This release contains BREAKING changes. Make sure to read and apply upgrade notes.

• [Breaking] Require Ruby 3.1+.
• [Breaking] Remove ability to abort transactions using throw(:abort). Please use raise WaterDrop::Errors::AbortTransaction.
• [Breaking] Disallow (similar to ActiveRecord) exiting transactions with return, break or throw.
• [Breaking] License changed from MIT to LGPL with an additional commercial option. Note: there is no commercial code in this repository. The commercial license is available for companies unable to use LGPL-licensed software for legal reasons.
• [Enhancement] Make variants fiber safe.
• [Enhancement] In transactional mode do not return any dispatched messages as none will be dispatched due to rollback.
• [Enhancement] Align the LoggerListener async messages to reflect, that messages are delegated to the internal queue and not dispatched.
• [Fix] Ensure, that :dispatched key for #produce_many_sync always contains delivery handles (final) and not delivery reports.

Upgrade Notes

PLEASE MAKE SURE TO READ AND APPLY THEM!

throw(:abort) No Longer Allowed To Abort Transactions

Replace:

producer.transaction do
  messages.each do |message|
    # Pipe all events
    producer.produce_async(topic: 'events', payload: message.raw_payload)
  end

  # And abort if more events are no longer needed
  throw(:abort) if KnowledgeBase.more_events_needed?
end

With:

producer.transaction do
  messages.each do |message|
    # Pipe all events
    producer.produce_async(topic: 'events', payload: message.raw_payload)
  end

  # And abort if more events are no longer needed
  raise(WaterDrop::AbortTransaction) if KnowledgeBase.more_events_needed?
end

return, break and throw No Longer Allowed Inside Transaction Block

Previously, transactions would abort if you exited early using return, break, or throw. This could create unexpected behavior, where users might not notice the rollback or have different intentions. For example, the following would trigger a rollback:

MAX = 10

def process(messages)
  count = 0

  producer.transaction do
    messages.each do |message|
      count += 1

      producer.produce_async(topic: 'events', payload: message.raw_payload)

      # This would trigger a rollback.
      return if count >= MAX
    end
  end
end

This is a source of errors, hence such exits are no longer allowed. You can implement similar flow control inside of your methods that are wrapped in a WaterDrop transaction:

MAX = 10

def process(messages)
  producer.transaction do
    # Early return from this method will not affect the transaction.
    # It will be committed
    insert_with_limit(messages)
  end
end

def insert_with_limit(messages)
  count = 0

  messages.each do |message|
    count += 1

    producer.produce_async(topic: 'events', payload: message.raw_payload)

    # This would trigger a rollback.
    return if count >= MAX
  end
end

2.7.4 (2024-07-04)

• [Maintenance] Lower the precision reporting to 100 microseconds in the logger listener.
• [Fix] Consumer consuming error: Local: Erroneous state (state) post break flow in transaction.
• [Change] Require 'karafka-core' >= 2.4.3

• [Breaking] Remove no longer needed wait_timeout configuration option.
• [Breaking] Do not validate or morph (via middleware) messages added to the buffer prior to flush_sync or flush_async.
• [Enhancement] Provide WaterDrop::Producer#transaction? that returns only when producer has an active transaction running.
• [Enhancement] Introduce instrument_on_wait_queue_full flag (defaults to true) to be able to configure whether non critical (retryable) queue full errors should be instrumented in the error pipeline. Useful when building high-performance pipes with WaterDrop queue retry backoff as a throttler.
• [Enhancement] Protect critical rdkafka thread executable code sections.
• [Enhancement] Treat the queue size as a gauge rather than a cumulative stat (isturdy).
• [Fix] Fix a case where purge on non-initialized client would crash.
• [Fix] Middlewares run twice when using buffered produce.
• [Fix] Validations run twice when using buffered produce.

Upgrade Notes

PLEASE MAKE SURE TO READ AND APPLY THEM!

wait_timeout Configuration No Longer Needed

The wait_timeout WaterDrop configuration option is no longer needed. You can safely remove it.

producer = WaterDrop::Producer.new

producer.setup do |config|
  # Other config...

  # Remove this, no longer needed
  config.wait_timeout = 30
end

Time Settings Format Alignment

All time-related values are now configured in milliseconds instead of some being in seconds and some in milliseconds.

The values that were changed from seconds to milliseconds are:

• max_wait_timeout
• wait_backoff_on_queue_full
• wait_timeout_on_queue_full
• wait_backoff_on_transaction_command, default

If you have configured any of those yourself, please replace the seconds representation with milliseconds:

producer = WaterDrop::Producer.new

producer.setup do |config|
  config.deliver = true

  # Replace this:
  config.max_wait_timeout = 30

  # With
  config.max_wait_timeout = 30_000
  # ...
end

Defaults Alignment

In this release, we've updated our default settings to address a crucial issue: previous defaults could lead to inconclusive outcomes in synchronous operations due to wait timeout errors. Users often mistakenly believed that a message dispatch was halted because of these errors when, in fact, the timeout was related to awaiting the final dispatch verdict, not the dispatch action itself.

The new defaults in WaterDrop 2.7.0 eliminate this confusion by ensuring synchronous operation results are always transparent and conclusive. This change aims to provide a straightforward understanding of wait timeout errors, reinforcing that they reflect the wait state, not the dispatch success.

Below, you can find a table with what has changed, the new defaults, and the current ones in case you want to retain the previous behavior:

Config	Previous Default	New Default
root max_wait_timeout	5000 ms (5 seconds)	60000 ms (60 seconds)
kafka message.timeout.ms	300000 ms (5 minutes)	50000 ms (50 seconds)
kafka transaction.timeout.ms	60000 ms (1 minute)	55000 ms (55 seconds)

This alignment ensures that when using sync operations or invoking #wait, any exception you get should give you a conclusive and final delivery verdict.

Buffering No Longer Early Validates Messages

As of version 2.7.0, WaterDrop has changed how message buffering works. Previously, messages underwent validation and middleware processing when they were buffered. Now, these steps are deferred until just before dispatching the messages. The buffer functions strictly as a thread-safe storage area without performing any validations or middleware operations until the messages are ready to be sent.

This adjustment was made primarily to ensure that middleware runs and validations are applied when most relevant—shortly before message dispatch. This approach addresses potential issues with buffers that might hold messages for extended periods:

• Temporal Relevance: Validating and processing messages near their dispatch time helps ensure that actions such as partition assignments reflect the current system state. This is crucial in dynamic environments where system states are subject to rapid changes.

• Stale State Management: By delaying validations and middleware to the dispatch phase, the system minimizes the risk of acting on outdated information, which could lead to incorrect processing or partitioning decisions.

# Prior to 2.7.0 this would raise an error
producer.buffer(topic: nil, payload: '')
# => WaterDrop::Errors::MessageInvalidError

# After 2.7.0 buffer will not, but flush_async will
producer.buffer(topic: nil, payload: '')
# => all good here
producer.flush_async(topic: nil, payload: '')
# => WaterDrop::Errors::MessageInvalidError

Middleware Execution Prior to Flush When Buffering

The timing of middleware execution has been adjusted. Middleware, which was previously run when messages were added to the buffer, will now only execute immediately before the messages are flushed from the buffer and dispatched. This change is similar to the validation-related changes.

2.6.14 (2024-02-06)

• [Enhancement] Instrument producer.connected and producer.closing lifecycle events.

2.6.13 (2024-01-29)

• [Enhancement] Expose #partition_count for building custom partitioners that need to be aware of number of partitions on a given topic.

2.6.12 (2024-01-03)

• [Enhancement] Provide ability to label message dispatches for increased observability.
• [Enhancement] Provide ability to commit offset during the transaction with a consumer provided.
• [Change] Change transactional message purged error type from message.error to librdkafka.dispatch_error to align with the non-transactional error type.
• [Change] Remove usage of concurrent ruby.

2.6.11 (2023-10-25)

• [Enhancement] Return delivery handles and delivery report for both dummy and buffered clients with proper topics, partitions and offsets assign and auto-increment offsets per partition.
• [Fix] Fix a case where buffered test client would not accumulate messages on failed transactions

2.6.10 (2023-10-24)

• [Improvement] Introduce message.purged event to indicate that a message that was not delivered to Kafka was purged. This most of the time refers to messages that were part of a transaction and were not yet dispatched to Kafka. It always means, that given message was not delivered but in case of transactions it is expected. In case of non-transactional it usually means #purge usage or exceeding message.timeout.ms so librdkafka removes this message from its internal queue. Non-transactional producers do not use this and pipe purges to error.occurred.
• [Fix] Fix a case where message.acknowledged would not have caller key.
• [Fix] Fix a bug where critical errors (like IRB::Abort) would not abort the ongoing transaction.

2.6.9 (2023-10-23)

• [Improvement] Introduce a transaction.finished event to indicate that transaction has finished whether it was aborted or committed.
• [Improvement] Use transaction.committed event to indicate that transaction has been committed.

2.6.8 (2023-10-20)

• [Feature] Introduce transactions support.
• [Improvement] Expand LoggerListener to inform about transactions (info level).
• [Improvement] Allow waterdrop to use topic as a symbol or a string.
• [Improvement] Enhance both message.acknowledged and error.occurred (for librdkafka.dispatch_error) with full delivery_report.
• [Improvement] Provide #close! that will force producer close even with outgoing data after the ma wait timeout.
• [Improvement] Provide #purge that will purge any outgoing data and data from the internal queues (both WaterDrop and librdkafka).
• [Fix] Fix the librdkafka.dispatch_error error dispatch for errors with negative code.

2.6.7 (2023-09-01)

• [Improvement] early flush data from librdkafka internal buffer before closing.
• [Maintenance] Update the signing cert as the old one expired.

2.6.6 (2023-08-03)

• [Improvement] Provide log_messages option to LoggerListener so the extensive messages data logging can disabled.

2.6.5 (2023-07-22)

• [Fix] Add cause to the errors that are passed into instrumentation (konalegi)

2.6.4 (2023-07-11)

• [Improvement] Use original error #inspect for WaterDrop::Errors::ProduceError and WaterDrop::Errors::ProduceManyError instead of the current empty string.

2.6.3 (2023-06-28)

• [Change] Use Concurrent::AtomicFixnum to track operations in progress to prevent potential race conditions on JRuby and TruffleRuby (not yet supported but this is for future usage).
• [Change] Require karafka-rdkafka >= 0.13.2.
• [Change] Require 'karafka-core' >= 2.1.1

2.6.2 (2023-06-21)

• [Refactor] Introduce a counter-based locking approach to make sure, that we close the producer safely but at the same time not to limit messages production with producing lock.
• [Refactor] Make private methods private.
• [Refactor] Validate that producer is not closed only when attempting to produce.
• [Refactor] Improve one 5 minute long spec to run in 10 seconds.
• [Refactor] clear client assignment after closing.

2.6.1 (2023-06-19)

• [Refactor] Remove no longer needed patches.
• [Fix] Fork detection on a short lived processes seems to fail. Clear the used parent process client reference not to close it in the finalizer (#356).
• [Change] Require karafka-rdkafka >= 0.13.0.
• [Change] Require 'karafka-core' >= 2.1.0

2.6.0 (2023-06-11)

• [Improvement] Introduce client_class setting for ability to replace underlying client with anything specific to a given env (dev, test, etc).
• [Improvement] Introduce Clients::Buffered useful for writing specs that do not have to talk with Kafka (id-ilych)
• [Improvement] Make #produce method private to avoid confusion and make sure it is not used directly (it is not part of the official API).
• [Change] Change wait_on_queue_full from false to true as a default.
• [Change] Rename wait_on_queue_full_timeout to wait_backoff_on_queue_full to match what it actually does.
• [Enhancement] Introduce wait_timeout_on_queue_full with proper meaning. That is, this represents time after which despite backoff the error will be raised. This should allow to raise an error in case the backoff attempts were insufficient. This prevents from a case, where upon never deliverable messages we would end up with an infinite loop.
• [Fix] Provide type for queue full errors that references the appropriate public API method correctly.

Upgrade notes

1. Rename wait_on_queue_full_timeout to wait_backoff_on_queue_full.
2. Set wait_on_queue_full to false if you did not use it and do not want.

2.5.3 (2023-05-26)

• [Enhancement] Include topic name in the error.occurred notification payload.
• [Enhancement] Include topic name in the message.acknowledged notification payload.
• [Maintenance] Require karafka-core 2.0.13

2.5.2 (2023-04-24)

• [Fix] Require missing Pathname (#345)

2.5.1 (2023-03-09)

• [Feature] Introduce a configurable backoff upon librdkafka queue full (false by default).

2.5.0 (2023-03-04)

• [Feature] Pipe all the errors including synchronous errors via the error.occurred.
• [Improvement] Pipe delivery errors that occurred not via the error callback using the error.occurred channel.
• [Improvement] Introduce WaterDrop::Errors::ProduceError and WaterDrop::Errors::ProduceManyError for any inline raised errors that occur. You can get the original error by using the #cause.
• [Improvement] Include #dispatched messages handler in the WaterDrop::Errors::ProduceManyError error, to be able to understand which of the messages were delegated to librdkafka prior to the failure.
• [Maintenance] Remove the WaterDrop::Errors::FlushFailureError in favour of correct error that occurred to unify the error handling.
• [Maintenance] Rename Datadog::Listener to Datadog::MetricsListener to align with Karafka (#329).
• [Fix] Do not flush when there is no data to flush in the internal buffer.
• [Fix] Wait on the final data flush for short-lived producers to make sure, that the message is actually dispatched by librdkafka or timeout.

Upgrade notes

Please note, this is a breaking release, hence 2.5.0.

1. If you used to catch WaterDrop::Errors::FlushFailureError now you need to catch WaterDrop::Errors::ProduceError. WaterDrop::Errors::ProduceManyError is based on the ProduceError, hence it should be enough.
2. Prior to 2.5.0 there was always a chance of partial dispatches via produce_many_ methods. Now you can get the info on all the errors via error.occurred.
3. Inline Rdkafka::RdkafkaError are now re-raised via WaterDrop::Errors::ProduceError and available under #cause. Async Rdkafka::RdkafkaError errors are still directly available and you can differentiate between errors using the event type.
4. If you are using the Datadog listener, you need to:

# Replace require:
require 'waterdrop/instrumentation/vendors/datadog/listener'
# With
require 'waterdrop/instrumentation/vendors/datadog/metrics_listener'

# Replace references of
::WaterDrop::Instrumentation::Vendors::Datadog::Listener.new
# With
::WaterDrop::Instrumentation::Vendors::Datadog::MetricsListener.new

2.4.11 (2023-02-24)

• Replace the local rspec locator with generalized core one.
• Make ::WaterDrop::Instrumentation::Notifications::EVENTS list public for anyone wanting to re-bind those into a different notification bus.

2.4.10 (2023-01-30)

• Include caller in the error instrumentation to align with Karafka.

2.4.9 (2023-01-11)

• Remove empty debug logging out of LoggerListener.
• Do not lock Ruby version in Karafka in favour of karafka-core.
• Make sure karafka-core version is at least 2.0.9 to make sure we run karafka-rdkafka.

2.4.8 (2023-01-07)

• Use monotonic time from Karafka core.

2.4.7 (2022-12-18)

• Add support to customizable middlewares that can modify message hash prior to validation and dispatch.
• Fix a case where upon not-available leader, metadata request would not be retried
• Require karafka-core 2.0.7.

2.4.6 (2022-12-10)

• Set statistics.interval.ms to 5 seconds by default, so the defaults cover all the instrumentation out of the box.

Upgrade notes

If you want to disable librdkafka statistics because you do not use them at all, update the kafka statistics.interval.ms setting and set it to 0:

producer = WaterDrop::Producer.new

producer.setup do |config|
  config.deliver = true
  config.kafka = {
    'bootstrap.servers': 'localhost:9092',
    'statistics.interval.ms': 0
  }
end

2.4.5 (2022-12-10)

2.3.3 (2022-07-18)

• Replace dry-validation with home-brew validation layer and drop direct dependency on dry-validation.
• Remove indirect dependency on dry-configurable from DataDog listener (no changes required).

2.3.2 (2022-07-17)

• Replace :producer with :producer_id in events and update StdoutListener accordingly. This change aligns all the events in terms of not publishing the whole producer object in the events.
• Add error.emitted into the StdoutListener.
• Enable StdoutLogger in specs for additional integration coverage.

2.0.6 (2021-12-01)

• #218 - Fixes a case, where dispatch of callbacks the same moment a new producer was created could cause a concurrency issue in the manager.
• Fix some unstable specs.

2.0.5 (2021-11-28)

Bug fixes

• Fixes an issue where multiple producers would emit stats of other producers causing the same stats to be published several times (as many times as a number of producers). This could cause invalid reporting for multi-kafka setups.
