# pilgrimage

Pilgrimage is a Rust implementation of a distributed messaging system inspired by Apache Kafka. It records messages to local files and supports **At-least-once** and **Exactly-once** delivery semantics.

## Installation

To use Pilgrimage, add the following to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
pilgrimage = "0.12"
```

## Security

When using Pilgramage as a Crate, client authentication is implemented, but at present, authentication is not implemented for message sending and receiving from the CLI and web client. You can find a sample of authentication with Crate `examples/auth-example.rs`, `examples/auth-send-recv.rs`.

## Features

- Topic-based pub/sub model
- Scalability through partitioning
- Persistent messages (log file based)
- Leader/Follower Replication
- Fault Detection and Automatic Recovery
- Delivery guaranteed by acknowledgement (ACK)
- Fully implemented leader selection mechanism
- Partition Replication
- Persistent messages
- Schema Registry for managing message schemas and ensuring compatibility
- Automatic Scaling
- Broker Clustering
- Message processing in parallel
- Authentication and Authorization Mechanisms
- Data Encryption
- CLI based console
- WEB based console
- Support AMQP

## Basic Usage

```rust
use pilgrimage::broker::Broker;
use pilgrimage::message::message::Message;
use pilgrimage::schema::registry::SchemaRegistry;
use std::sync::{Arc, Mutex};
use std::thread;
use std::time::Duration;

fn main() {
    // Creating a schema registry
    let schema_registry = SchemaRegistry::new();
    let schema_def = r#"{"type":"record","name":"test","fields":[{"name":"id","type":"string"}]}"#;
    schema_registry
        .register_schema("test_topic", schema_def)
        .unwrap();

    // Broker Creation
    let broker = Arc::new(Mutex::new(Broker::new("broker1", 3, 2, "logs")));

    // Creating a topic
    {
        let mut broker = broker.lock().unwrap();
        broker.create_topic("test_topic", Some(1)).unwrap();
    }

    // Receiving thread
    let broker_clone = Arc::clone(&broker);
    let receiver = thread::spawn(move || {
        for _ in 0..5 {
            let broker = broker_clone.lock().unwrap();
            if let Some(message) = broker.receive_message() {
                println!("Received: {}", message.content);
            }
            drop(broker);
            thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(100));
        }
    });

    // Sender processing
    for i in 1..=5 {
        let message = Message::new(format!("Message {}", i));
        {
            let broker = broker.lock().unwrap();
            broker.send_message(message).unwrap();
            println!("Sent message {}", i);
        }
        thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(100));
    }

    // Waiting for the end of the incoming thread
    receiver.join().unwrap();
}
```

### Dependency

- Rust 1.51.0 or later

### Functionality Implemented

- **Message Queue**: Efficient message queue implementation using `Mutex` and `VecDeque`.
- **Broker**: Core broker functionality including message handling, node management, and leader election.
- **Consumer Groups**: Support for consumer groups to allow multiple consumers to read from the same topic.
- **Leader Election**: Mechanism for electing a leader among brokers to manage partitions and replication.
- **Storage**: Persistent storage of messages using local files.
- **Replication**: Replication of messages across multiple brokers for fault tolerance.
- **Schema Registry**: Management of message schemas to ensure compatibility between producers and consumers.
- **Benchmarking**: Comprehensive benchmarking tests to measure performance of various components.
- **Automatic Scaling:** Automatically scale the number of instances based on load.
- **Log Compressions:** Compress and optimize logs.

### Examples

To execute a basic example, use the following command:

```bash
cargo run --example ack-mulch-transaction
cargo run --example ack-send-recv
cargo run --example auth-example
cargo run --example auth-send-recv
cargo run --example idempotency
cargo run --example persistant-ack
cargo run --example simple-send-recv
cargo run --example thread-send-recv
cargo run --example transaction-send-recv
```

### Bench

If the allocated memory is small, it may fail.

```sh
Gnuplot not found, using plotters backend
send_message            time:   [849.75 ns 851.33 ns 853.18 ns]
                        change: [-23.318% -20.131% -18.021%] (p = 0.00 < 0.05)
                        Performance has improved.
Found 1 outliers among 100 measurements (1.00%)
  1 (1.00%) high mild

send_benchmark_message  time:   [850.69 ns 852.08 ns 853.67 ns]
                        change: [-33.444% -26.669% -22.423%] (p = 0.00 < 0.05)
                        Performance has improved.
Found 2 outliers among 100 measurements (2.00%)
  2 (2.00%) high mild
```

`cargo bench`

## CLI Features

### Running the Web Server

To start the web server:

```sh
cargo run --bin web
```

The server will be available at `http://localhost:8080`.

## Version increment on release

- The commit message is parsed and the version of either major, minor or patch is incremented.
- The version of Cargo.toml is updated.
- The updated Cargo.toml is committed and a new tag is created.
- The changes and tag are pushed to the remote repository.

The version is automatically incremented based on the commit message. Here, we treat `feat` as minor, `fix` as patch, and `BREAKING CHANGE` as major.
