GCP PubSub Messaging Flow

This project demonstrates the basic usage of Google Cloud Pub/Sub with a simple publish and subscribe usage. It consists of a Python script to create a topic and subscription, an express server that listens for messages, and another Python script to publish messages to the topic. The messages are displayed in a browser window using Socket.IO.

Requirements

  • Python 3.6+
  • Node.js 12+
  • Google Cloud SDK
  • Google Cloud account with a configured project and Pub/Sub API enabled
  • Google Cloud service account with Pub/Sub Editor role and JSON key downloaded from the Google Cloud Console.

Setup

  1. Install the required Python packages: pip install google-cloud-pubsub google-auth google-auth-transport-requests

  2. Install the required Node.js packages: cd app npm install

  3. Update the config.json file with your Google Cloud project information and the path to your service account key JSON file.

Usage

  1. Run the pubsub_hello_world.py script to create a topic and subscription in your Google Cloud project: python pubsub_hello_world.py

  2. Start the server by running the following command in the app directory: node server.js (The server will start on port 3000 by default and open a browser window displaying the received messages.)

  3. Run the publisher.py script to publish a message to the topic: python publisher.py

  4. Observe the received message in the browser window.
