## Getting Started
For more detailed information on the architecture, installation and use of go-micro checkout the [docs](https://micro.mu/docs).
For detailed information on the architecture, installation and use of go-micro checkout the [docs](https://micro.mu/docs).
## Learn By Example
An example service can be found in [**examples/service**](https://github.com/micro/examples/tree/master/service) and function in [**examples/function**](https://github.com/micro/examples/tree/master/function).
The [**examples**](https://github.com/micro/examples) directory contains examples for using things such as middleware/wrappers, selector filters, pub/sub, grpc, plugins and much more. For the complete greeter example look at [**examples/greeter**](https://github.com/micro/examples/tree/master/greeter). Other examples can be found throughout the GitHub repository.
Watch the [Golang UK Conf 2016](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xspaDovwk34) video for a high level overview.
## Getting started
- [Install Protobuf](#install-protobuf)
- [Service Discovery](#service-discovery)
- [Writing a Service](#writing-a-service)
- [Writing a Function](#writing-a-function)
- [Publish & Subscribe](#publish--subscribe)
- [Plugins](#plugins)

## Install Protobuf
Protobuf is required for code generation
You'll need to install:
- [protoc-gen-micro](https://github.com/micro/protoc-gen-micro)
## Service Discovery
Service discovery is used to resolve service names to addresses.
### Consul
[Consul](https://www.consul.io/) is used as the default service discovery system.
Discovery is pluggable. Find plugins for etcd, kubernetes, zookeeper and more in the [micro/go-plugins](https://github.com/micro/go-plugins) repo.
[Install guide](https://www.consul.io/intro/getting-started/install.html)
### Multicast DNS
[Multicast DNS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_DNS) is a built in service discovery plugin for a zero dependency configuration.
Pass `--registry=mdns` to any command or the enviroment variable `MICRO_REGISTRY=mdns`
```
MICRO_REGISTRY=mdns go run main.go
```
## Writing a service
This is a simple greeter RPC service example
Find this example at [examples/service](https://github.com/micro/examples/tree/master/service).
### Create service proto
One of the key requirements of microservices is strongly defined interfaces. Micro uses protobuf to achieve this.
Here we define the Greeter handler with the method Hello. It takes a HelloRequest and HelloResponse both with one string arguments.
```proto
syntax = "proto3";
service Greeter {
rpc Hello(HelloRequest) returns (HelloResponse) {}
}
message HelloRequest {
string name = 1;
}
message HelloResponse {
string greeting = 2;
}
```
### Generate the proto
After writing the proto definition we must compile it using protoc with the micro plugin.
```shell
protoc --proto_path=$GOPATH/src:. --micro_out=. --go_out=. path/to/greeter.proto
```
### Write the service
Below is the code for the greeter service.
It does the following:
1. Implements the interface defined for the Greeter handler
2. Initialises a micro.Service
3. Registers the Greeter handler
4. Runs the service
```go
package main
import (
"context"
"fmt"
micro "github.com/micro/go-micro"
proto "github.com/micro/examples/service/proto"
)
type Greeter struct{}
func (g *Greeter) Hello(ctx context.Context, req *proto.HelloRequest, rsp *proto.HelloResponse) error {
rsp.Greeting = "Hello " + req.Name
return nil
}
func main() {
// Create a new service. Optionally include some options here.
service := micro.NewService(
micro.Name("greeter"),
)
// Init will parse the command line flags.
service.Init()
// Register handler
proto.RegisterGreeterHandler(service.Server(), new(Greeter))
// Run the server
if err := service.Run(); err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
}
}
```
### Run service
```
go run examples/service/main.go
```
Output
```
2016/03/14 10:59:14 Listening on [::]:50137
2016/03/14 10:59:14 Broker Listening on [::]:50138
2016/03/14 10:59:14 Registering node: greeter-ca62b017-e9d3-11e5-9bbb-68a86d0d36b6
```
### Define a client
Below is the client code to query the greeter service.
The generated proto includes a greeter client to reduce boilerplate code.
```go
package main
import (
"context"
"fmt"
micro "github.com/micro/go-micro"
proto "github.com/micro/examples/service/proto"
)
func main() {
// Create a new service. Optionally include some options here.
service := micro.NewService(micro.Name("greeter.client"))
service.Init()
// Create new greeter client
greeter := proto.NewGreeterService("greeter", service.Client())
// Call the greeter
rsp, err := greeter.Hello(context.TODO(), &proto.HelloRequest{Name: "John"})
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
}
// Print response
fmt.Println(rsp.Greeting)
}
```
### Run the client
```shell
go run client.go
```
Output
```
Hello John
```
## Writing a Function
Go Micro includes the Function programming model.
A Function is a one time executing Service which exits after completing a request.
### Defining a Function
```go
package main
import (
"context"
proto "github.com/micro/examples/function/proto"
"github.com/micro/go-micro"
)
type Greeter struct{}
func (g *Greeter) Hello(ctx context.Context, req *proto.HelloRequest, rsp *proto.HelloResponse) error {
rsp.Greeting = "Hello " + req.Name
return nil
}
func main() {
// create a new function
fnc := micro.NewFunction(
micro.Name("greeter"),
)
// init the command line
fnc.Init()
// register a handler
fnc.Handle(new(Greeter))
// run the function
fnc.Run()
}
```
It's that simple.
## Publish & Subscribe
Go-micro has a built in message broker interface for event driven architectures.
PubSub operates on the same protobuf generated messages as RPC. They are encoded/decoded automatically and sent via the broker.
By default go-micro includes a point-to-point http broker but this can be swapped out via go-plugins.
### Publish
Create a new publisher with a `topic` name and service client
```go
p := micro.NewPublisher("events", service.Client())
```
Publish a proto message
```go
p.Publish(context.TODO(), &proto.Event{Name: "event"})
```
### Subscribe
Create a message handler. It's signature should be `func(context.Context, v interface{}) error`.
```go
func ProcessEvent(ctx context.Context, event *proto.Event) error {
fmt.Printf("Got event %+v\n", event)
return nil
}
```
Register the message handler with a `topic`
```go
micro.RegisterSubscriber("events", ProcessEvent)
```
See [examples/pubsub](https://github.com/micro/examples/tree/master/pubsub) for a complete example.
## Plugins
By default go-micro only provides a few implementation of each interface at the core but it's completely pluggable. There's already dozens of plugins which are available at [github.com/micro/go-plugins](https://github.com/micro/go-plugins). Contributions are welcome!
### Build with plugins
If you want to integrate plugins simply link them in a separate file and rebuild
Create a plugins.go file
```go
import (
// etcd v3 registry
_ "github.com/micro/go-plugins/registry/etcdv3"
// nats transport
_ "github.com/micro/go-plugins/transport/nats"
// kafka broker
_ "github.com/micro/go-plugins/broker/kafka"
)
```
Build binary
```shell
// For local use
go build -i -o service ./main.go ./plugins.go
```
Flag usage of plugins
```shell
service --registry=etcdv3 --transport=nats --broker=kafka
```
### Plugin as option
Alternatively you can set the plugin as an option to a service
```go
import (
"github.com/micro/go-micro"
// etcd v3 registry
"github.com/micro/go-plugins/registry/etcdv3"
// nats transport
"github.com/micro/go-plugins/transport/nats"
// kafka broker
"github.com/micro/go-plugins/broker/kafka"
)
func main() {
registry := etcdv3.NewRegistry()
broker := kafka.NewBroker()
transport := nats.NewTransport()
service := micro.NewService(
micro.Name("greeter"),
micro.Registry(registry),
micro.Broker(broker),
micro.Transport(transport),
)
service.Init()
service.Run()
}
```
### Write plugins
Plugins are a concept built on Go's interface. Each package maintains a high level interface abstraction.
Simply implement the interface and pass it in as an option to the service.
The service discovery interface is called [Registry](https://godoc.org/github.com/micro/go-micro/registry#Registry).
Anything which implements this interface can be used as a registry. The same applies to the other packages.
```go
type Registry interface {
Register(*Service, ...RegisterOption) error
Deregister(*Service) error
GetService(string) ([]*Service, error)
ListServices() ([]*Service, error)
Watch() (Watcher, error)
String() string
}
```
Browse [go-plugins](https://github.com/micro/go-plugins) to get a better idea of implementation details.
## Wrappers
Go-micro includes the notion of middleware as wrappers. The client or handlers can be wrapped using the decorator pattern.
### Handler
Here's an example service handler wrapper which logs the incoming request
```go
// implements the server.HandlerWrapper
func logWrapper(fn server.HandlerFunc) server.HandlerFunc {
return func(ctx context.Context, req server.Request, rsp interface{}) error {
fmt.Printf("[%v] server request: %s", time.Now(), req.Method())
return fn(ctx, req, rsp)
}
}
```
It can be initialised when creating the service
```go
service := micro.NewService(
micro.Name("greeter"),
// wrap the handler
micro.WrapHandler(logWrapper),
)
```
### Client
Here's an example of a client wrapper which logs requests made
```go
type logWrapper struct {
client.Client
}
func (l *logWrapper) Call(ctx context.Context, req client.Request, rsp interface{}, opts ...client.CallOption) error {
fmt.Printf("[wrapper] client request to service: %s method: %s\n", req.Service(), req.Method())
return l.Client.Call(ctx, req, rsp)
}
// implements client.Wrapper as logWrapper
func logWrap(c client.Client) client.Client {
return &logWrapper{c}
}
```
It can be initialised when creating the service
```go
service := micro.NewService(
micro.Name("greeter"),
// wrap the client
micro.WrapClient(logWrap),
)
```
