Pvent

Pvent is a CLI tool for sending events across different message brokers. At the moment, only Google Pub/Sub, Kafka, Amazon SQS and RabbitMQ are supported.

Installation

To install Pvent using homebrew, you can run the following commands:

brew tap dotunj/tools
brew install dotunj/tools/pvent

You can also check the releases section to download the binary for your OS.

Getting Started

To get started with using Pvent, you need to provide your message brokers credentials in a config file.

An example pvent.json config file looks like:

{
  "type": "sqs",
  "sqs": {
    "access_key_id": "<access-key-id>",
    "secret_access_key": "<secret-access-key>",
    "region": "<region>",
    "queue_name": "<queue-name>"
  },
  "kafka": {
    "address": "<address>",
    "topic": "<topic>",
    "auth": {
      "tls": true,
      "type": "scram",
      "hash": "SHA256",
      "username": "<username>",
      "password": "<password>"
    }
  },
  "google": {
    "project_id": "<project-id>",
    "topic_name": "<topic-name>"
  },
  "rabbitmq": {
    "dsn": "<dsn>",
    "queue_name": "<queue-name>"
  }
}

Using the CLI, you can now run:

pvent dispatch --target payload.json --rate 1

If you're using Google Pub/Sub, you'll need to expose the path to your service account credentials file as an environment variable

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/Users/dotunj/Documents/certs/service.json"
