Cloud Pub/Sub v1 API - Class SubscriberClient (3.16.0)

public abstract class SubscriberClient : IAsyncDisposable

Reference documentation and code samples for the Cloud Pub/Sub v1 API class SubscriberClient.

Namespace

Remarks

To receive messages, the StartAsync(SubscriptionHandler) method must be called, with a suitable message handler.

The message handler SubscriberClient.Reply states whether to acknowledge the message; if acknowledged then (under normal conditions) it will not be received on this subscription again.

But note that it is always possible to receive duplicate messages. This services guarantees "at least once" delivery, not "only once" delivery.

This class implements the IAsyncDisposable interface. However, it is recommended to create a single SubscriberClient instance, and use it throughout the lifetime of the application. If the SubscriberClient is registered in a dependency injection container, its DisposeAsync method will be called automatically.

Methods

Create(SubscriptionName)

public static SubscriberClient Create(SubscriptionName subscriptionName)

Create a SubscriberClient instance associated with the specified SubscriptionName, using default settings.

Parameter
Name	Description
`subscriptionName`	`SubscriptionName` The SubscriptionName to receive messages from.

Returns
Type	Description
`SubscriberClient`	A SubscriberClient instance associated with the specified SubscriptionName.

Create(SubscriptionName, ClientCreationSettings, Settings)

[Obsolete("Use SubscriberClient.Create(SubscriptionName) to use the default settings, or SubscriberClientBuilder for customization.")]
public static SubscriberClient Create(SubscriptionName subscriptionName, SubscriberClient.ClientCreationSettings clientCreationSettings = null, SubscriberClient.Settings settings = null)

Create a SubscriberClient instance associated with the specified SubscriptionName. The default settings and clientCreationSettings are suitable for machines with high network bandwidth (e.g. Google Compute Engine instances). If running with more limited network bandwidth, some settings may need changing; especially AckDeadline. By default this method generates a gRPC channel per CPU core; if using a high-core-count machine and using many clients concurrently then this may need reducing; use the setting ClientCount.

Parameters
Name	Description
`subscriptionName`	`SubscriptionName` The SubscriptionName to receive messages from.
`clientCreationSettings`	`SubscriberClientClientCreationSettings` Optional. SubscriberClient.ClientCreationSettings specifying how to create SubscriberClients.
`settings`	`SubscriberClientSettings` Optional. SubscriberClient.Settings for creating a SubscriberClient.

Returns
Type	Description
`SubscriberClient`	A SubscriberClient instance associated with the specified SubscriptionName.

CreateAsync(SubscriptionName)

public static Task<SubscriberClient> CreateAsync(SubscriptionName subscriptionName)

Creates a SubscriberClient instance associated with the specified SubscriptionName, using default settings.

Parameter
Name	Description
`subscriptionName`	`SubscriptionName` The SubscriptionName to receive messages from.

Returns
Type	Description
`TaskSubscriberClient`	A SubscriberClient instance associated with the specified SubscriptionName.

CreateAsync(SubscriptionName, ClientCreationSettings, Settings)

[Obsolete("Use SubscriberClient.Create(SubscriptionName) to use the default settings, or SubscriberClientBuilder for customization.")]
public static Task<SubscriberClient> CreateAsync(SubscriptionName subscriptionName, SubscriberClient.ClientCreationSettings clientCreationSettings = null, SubscriberClient.Settings settings = null)

Parameters
Name	Description
`subscriptionName`	`SubscriptionName` The SubscriptionName to receive messages from.
`clientCreationSettings`	`SubscriberClientClientCreationSettings` Optional. SubscriberClient.ClientCreationSettings specifying how to create SubscriberClients.
`settings`	`SubscriberClientSettings` Optional. SubscriberClient.Settings for creating a SubscriberClient.

Returns
Type	Description
`TaskSubscriberClient`	A SubscriberClient instance associated with the specified SubscriptionName.

DisposeAsync()

public virtual ValueTask DisposeAsync()

Disposes this SubscriberClient asynchronously.

Returns
Type	Description
`ValueTask`

Remarks

This method asynchronously waits for the time interval as specified in the DisposeTimeout for the SubscriberClient to acknowledge the handled messages. If the clean shutdown is not complete after this time, it is aborted; this may leave some handled messages un-acknowledged. The time interval can be customized by setting the DisposeTimeout.

StartAsync(SubscriptionHandler)

public virtual Task StartAsync(SubscriptionHandler handler)

Starts receiving messages. The returned Task completes when either StopAsync(CancellationToken) is called or if an unrecoverable fault occurs. See StopAsync(CancellationToken) for more details. This method cannot be called more than once per SubscriberClient instance.

Parameter
Name	Description
`handler`	`SubscriptionHandler` The handler that is passed all received messages and acknowledgement results.

Returns
Type	Description
`Task`	A Task that completes when the subscriber is stopped, or if an unrecoverable error occurs.

StartAsync(Func<PubsubMessage, CancellationToken, Task<Reply>>)

public virtual Task StartAsync(Func<PubsubMessage, CancellationToken, Task<SubscriberClient.Reply>> handlerAsync)

Parameter

Name Description

handlerAsync

FuncPubsubMessageCancellationTokenTaskSubscriberClientReply

The handler function that is passed all received messages. This function may be called on multiple threads concurrently. Return Ack from this function to acknowledge this message (implying it won't be received again); or return Nack to Not acknowledge this message (implying it will be received again). If this function throws any Exception, then it behaves as if it returned Nack.

Returns
Type	Description
`Task`	A Task that completes when the subscriber is stopped, or if an unrecoverable error occurs.

StopAsync(CancellationToken)

public virtual Task StopAsync(CancellationToken hardStopToken)

Stop this SubscriberClient. Cancelling hardStopToken aborts the clean stop process, and may leave some handled messages un-acknowledged. The returned Task completes when all handled messages have been acknowledged. The returned Task faults if there is an unrecoverable error with the underlying service. The returned Task cancels if hardStopToken is cancelled.

Parameter
Name	Description
`hardStopToken`	`CancellationToken` Cancel this CancellationToken to abort handlers and acknowledgement.

Returns
Type	Description
`Task`	A Task that completes when all handled messages have been acknowledged; faults on unrecoverable service errors; or cancels if `hardStopToken` is cancelled.

StopAsync(TimeSpan)

public virtual Task StopAsync(TimeSpan timeout)

Stop this SubscriberClient. If timeout expires, the clean stop process will be aborted, and may leave some handled messages un-acknowledged. The returned Task completes when all handled messages have been acknowledged. The returned Task faults if there is an unrecoverable error with the underlying service. The returned Task cancels if timeout expires.

Parameter
Name	Description
`timeout`	`TimeSpan` After this period, abort handling and acknowledging messages.

Returns
Type	Description
`Task`	A Task that completes when all handled messages have been acknowledged; faults on unrecoverable service errors; or cancels if `timeout` expires.
