Overview

Client for accessing Temporal.

Most users will use Client.connect to connect a client. The #workflow_service method provides access to a raw gRPC client. To create another client on the same connection, like for a different namespace, #options may be used to get the options as a struct which can then be dup’d, altered, and splatted as kwargs to the constructor (e.g. Client.new(**my_options.to_h)).

Clients are thread-safe and are meant to be reused for the life of the application. They are built to work in both synchronous and asynchronous contexts. Internally they use callbacks based on Queue which means they are Fiber-compatible.

Defined Under Namespace

Modules: Interceptor, WorkflowExecutionStatus, WorkflowQueryRejectCondition, WorkflowUpdateWaitStage Classes: ActivityIDReference, AsyncActivityHandle, Connection, Options, RPCOptions, Schedule, ScheduleHandle, WorkflowExecution, WorkflowExecutionCount, WorkflowHandle, WorkflowUpdateHandle

Constructor Details

#initialize(connection:, namespace:, data_converter: DataConverter.default, interceptors: [], logger: Logger.new($stdout, level: Logger::WARN), default_workflow_query_reject_condition: nil) ⇒ Client

Create a client from an existing connection. Most users will prefer connect instead. Parameters here match Options returned from #options by intention so options can be dup’d, altered, and splatted to create a new client.

Parameters:

  • connection (Connection) —

    Existing connection to create a client from.

  • namespace (String) —

    Namespace to use for client calls.

  • data_converter (Converters::DataConverter) (defaults to: DataConverter.default) —

    Data converter to use for all data conversions to/from payloads.

  • interceptors (Array<Interceptor>) (defaults to: []) —

    Set of interceptors that are chained together to allow intercepting of client calls. The earlier interceptors wrap the later ones. Any interceptors that also implement worker interceptor will be used as worker interceptors too so they should not be given separately when creating a worker.

  • logger (Logger) (defaults to: Logger.new($stdout, level: Logger::WARN)) —

    Logger to use for this client and any workers made from this client. Defaults to stdout with warn level. Callers setting this logger are responsible for closing it.

  • default_workflow_query_reject_condition (WorkflowQueryRejectCondition, nil) (defaults to: nil) —

    Default rejection condition for workflow queries if not set during query. See Temporalio::Client::WorkflowHandle#query for details on the rejection condition.

Class Method Details

.connect(target_host, namespace, api_key: nil, tls: false, data_converter: Converters::DataConverter.default, interceptors: [], logger: Logger.new($stdout, level: Logger::WARN), default_workflow_query_reject_condition: nil, rpc_metadata: {}, rpc_retry: Connection::RPCRetryOptions.new, identity: "#{Process.pid}@#{Socket.gethostname}", keep_alive: Connection::KeepAliveOptions.new, http_connect_proxy: nil, runtime: Runtime.default, lazy_connect: false) ⇒ Client

Connect to Temporal server. This is a shortcut for Connection.new followed by Client.new.

Parameters:

  • target_host (String) —

    host:port for the Temporal server. For local development, this is often localhost:7233.

  • namespace (String) —

    Namespace to use for client calls.

  • api_key (String, nil) (defaults to: nil) —

    API key for Temporal. This becomes the Authorization HTTP header with “Bearer ” prepended. This is only set if RPC metadata doesn’t already have an authorization key.

  • tls (Boolean, Connection::TLSOptions) (defaults to: false) —

    If false, do not use TLS. If true, use system default TLS options. If TLS options are present, those TLS options will be used.

  • data_converter (Converters::DataConverter) (defaults to: Converters::DataConverter.default) —

    Data converter to use for all data conversions to/from payloads.

  • interceptors (Array<Interceptor>) (defaults to: []) —

    Set of interceptors that are chained together to allow intercepting of client calls. The earlier interceptors wrap the later ones. Any interceptors that also implement worker interceptor will be used as worker interceptors too so they should not be given separately when creating a worker.

  • logger (Logger) (defaults to: Logger.new($stdout, level: Logger::WARN)) —

    Logger to use for this client and any workers made from this client. Defaults to stdout with warn level. Callers setting this logger are responsible for closing it.

  • default_workflow_query_reject_condition (WorkflowQueryRejectCondition, nil) (defaults to: nil) —

    Default rejection condition for workflow queries if not set during query. See Temporalio::Client::WorkflowHandle#query for details on the rejection condition.

  • rpc_metadata (Hash<String, String>) (defaults to: {}) —

    Headers to use for all calls to the server. Keys here can be overriden by per-call RPC metadata keys.

  • rpc_retry (Connection::RPCRetryOptions) (defaults to: Connection::RPCRetryOptions.new) —

    Retry options for direct service calls (when opted in) or all high-level calls made by this client (which all opt-in to retries by default).

  • identity (String) (defaults to: "#{Process.pid}@#{Socket.gethostname}") —

    Identity for this client.

  • keep_alive (Connection::KeepAliveOptions) (defaults to: Connection::KeepAliveOptions.new) —

    Keep-alive options for the client connection. Can be set to nil to disable.

  • http_connect_proxy (Connection::HTTPConnectProxyOptions, nil) (defaults to: nil) —

    Options for HTTP CONNECT proxy.

  • runtime (Runtime) (defaults to: Runtime.default) —

    Runtime for this client.

  • lazy_connect (Boolean) (defaults to: false) —

    If true, the client will not connect until the first call is attempted or a worker is created with it. Lazy clients cannot be used for workers if they have not performed a connection.

Returns:

  • (Client) —

    Connected client.

#workflow_handle(workflow_id, run_id: nil, first_execution_run_id: nil) ⇒ WorkflowHandle

Get a workflow handle to an existing workflow by its ID.

Parameters:

  • workflow_id (String) —

    Workflow ID to get a handle to.

  • run_id (String, nil) (defaults to: nil) —

    Run ID that will be used for all calls. Many choose to leave this unset which ensures interactions occur on the latest of the workflow ID.
