Saseo - 사서

RabbitMQ based PaperTrail replacement

Build Status Dependency Status Code Climate Test Coverage Gem Version License

Overview

Saseo has two primary responsibilities:

  1. Publishing all changes from a database
  2. Persisting the changes to a separate data store

Publishing

Saseo uses triggers to temporarily store changes to a local staging table. Saseo provides a stateless executable, saseo_publisher, that reads the records from that table, publishes them to a RabbitMQ Headers Exchange, then deletes them from the local staging table.

Because the messages are published in this way, the data is available to ANY AND ALL clients that can connect to RabbitMQ.

Published Message Format

Attribute Details Header* Payload**
table_name name of the table the record is from X
action INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE X
whodunnit the user or other entity responsible for the change X
item_id value, if any, of the id field from the record X
item_uuid value, if any, of the id field from the record X
transaction_id transaction_id from the source DB X
locale I18n.locale of the publisher X
database source database name for the record X
schema source schema name for the record X
id uuid of the saseo version X
old_data JSON representation of the record before the change X
new_data JSON representation of the record after the change X
action_timestamp timestamp from the transaction X

* Header: attribute that can be subscribed to
** Payload: attribute that can NOT be subscribed to, only accessible once the message is received

Persistence

Saseo provides a stateless executable, saseo_consumer, that subscribes to RabbitMQ to pick up the canges published by saseo_publisher and persists them to a database specified by config. Saseo currently creates one table for every tracked table.

Saseo table structure

Column Type Modifiers
id uuid not null default uuid_generate_v4()
transaction_id bigint not null
item_id bigint
item_uuid uuid
action character varying not null
action_timestamp timestamp with time zone not null
whodunnit character varying not null
changeset jsonb not null
new_data jsonb

Sample Setup

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'saseo'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install saseo

Usage

TODO: Write usage instructions here

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
