Messagerie

At-least-once messaging on RabbitMQ, written once: an event is published by one transactional line, a consumer queue is declared by one line, a failing listener is retried with back-off and then dead-lettered, and a redelivered message is processed once.

Publish an eventCopy Anchor Link

krizaka:
  messaging:
    producer: krizaka-users   # stamped on every event (kz-producer)
    exchanges:
      events: platform.events # defaults: krizaka.events / krizaka.dlx
      dead-letter: platform.dlx

@Transactional
public User register(NewUser input) {
  User user = users.save(input);
  events.publish("evt.user.registered", 1, new UserRegistered(user.id(), user.email()));
  return user;
}

EventPublisher.publish writes one row to your outbox, in your transaction: the event is committed or rolled back with the state change it announces, and the relay publishes it after the commit. The body is the bare event as JSON; the envelope travels in AMQP headers.

The envelopeCopy Anchor Link

The AMQP messageId is a UUID chosen when the row is written: a relay that crashes after publishing republishes the same id, and the consumer's deduplication drops the copy. The message also carries content_type: application/json, persistent delivery and a publish timestamp.

Consume a queueCopy Anchor Link

@Bean
Declarables userEvents(MessagingExchanges exchanges) {
  return KrizakaQueues.consumer(exchanges, "krizaka.notifications.user-events",
      "evt.user.registered", "evt.user.verified");
}

@RabbitListener(queues = "krizaka.notifications.user-events")
void onRegistered(UserRegistered event, @Header(AmqpHeaders.MESSAGE_ID) String messageId) {
  if (!dedup.claim("notifications.user-events", messageId)) return; // already processed
  try { welcome(event); } catch (RuntimeException e) { dedup.release("notifications.user-events", messageId); throw e; }
}

KrizakaQueues.consumer declares the events (topic) and dead-letter (direct) exchanges, the quorum queue bound to each routing key, and <queue>.dlq. The listener receives the type of its parameter — a tolerant copy of the producer's contract, never a class named in a header.

Retry, then the dead-letter queueCopy Anchor Link

The kit's listener container retries a failing listener with back-off, then republishes the message to <queue>.dlq with its original headers plus x-exception-message, x-exception-stacktrace, x-original-exchange and x-original-routingKey. A rejected message is never requeued.

krizaka:
  messaging:
    retry:            # defaults
      max-attempts: 5 # the first delivery included
      initial: 500ms
      multiplier: 2
      max: 10s

Process each message onceCopy Anchor Link

krizaka:
  messaging:
    dedup:
      store: jdbc # or `memory` for a service without a database

MessageDedup.claim is one INSERT arbitrated by the primary key; release gives the claim back when the handler fails, so the redelivery is processed instead of dropped.

CREATE TABLE processed_messages (
    consumer     VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    message_id   VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    processed_at TIMESTAMPTZ  NOT NULL DEFAULT now(),
    PRIMARY KEY (consumer, message_id)
);

The outboxCopy Anchor Link

The kit never creates a table: each context owns its outbox and implements OutboxStore over it. lockPendingBatch must claim its rows (FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED), or two instances publish the same row. The relay (krizaka.messaging.outbox.{enabled, poll-interval, batch-size, purge-interval, retention}) runs one transaction per batch, marks each published row, backs failures off and purges after the retention window. The recommended schema is in the module's README.

ConventionsCopy Anchor Link

A compatible change (a new optional field) keeps the routing key and the version. An incompatible one is published under evt.x.y.v2 next to evt.x.y until every consumer has moved; no shared jar of event classes, ever.
