Feature request: golang nats driver

[gedw99]

Would you open to adding nats as a driver in https://github.com/tarampampam/webhook-tester/tree/master/internal/pubsub

there is an example here :

Nats server is golang and can be globally cluster and so in some ways is much easier to roll out .

If you want to have no runtime dependencies you can run nats embedded as a leaf .

If , but unlikely, you want to run inprocess, but can be embedded and started that way too.

Feel free to ask if your not so familiar with nats.

Hello! From what I understand, NATS is a message broker. Even if this project uses it as a pub/sub driver, how would it make rolling out easier? Are there any issues with using Redis as the backend for data storage and publishing/subscribing to events?

nats server can be embedded.

Or it can be run stand alone .

its 109% golang .

its much easier to run then Redis , faster and has security and lots more .

so its very easy to rollout , and yes its a message broker. I have seen benchmarks of it against Redis and it’s twice as fast .

I typically put 3 nats in each main data center . Then clients automagically connect to the nearest data center .

I am def a fan boy though :)

It’s a nats web hook system

I understand, thank you! But you still need Redis to share the data among the app replicas, right?

[gedw99]

Nats does that just fine .

you probably need to look at nats examples …
