Apache Pulsar

Since testcontainers-go v0.19.0

Introduction

The Testcontainers module for Apache Pulsar.

Testcontainers can be used to automatically create Apache Pulsar containers without external services.

It's based on the official Apache Pulsar docker image, so it is recommended to read the official guide.

Adding this module to your project dependencies

Please run the following command to add the Apache Pulsar module to your Go dependencies:

go get github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-go/modules/pulsar

Usage example

Create a Pulsar container to use it in your tests:

c, err := testcontainerspulsar.RunContainer(
    ctx,
    tt.opts...,
)
require.Nil(t, err)
defer func() {
    err := c.Terminate(ctx)
    require.Nil(t, err)
}()

where the tt.opts are the options to configure the container. See the Container Options section for more details.

Module Reference

The Redis module exposes one entrypoint function to create the containerr, and this function receives two parameters:

func RunContainer(ctx context.Context, opts ...testcontainers.ContainerCustomizer) (*Container, error)
  • context.Context, the Go context.
  • testcontainers.ContainerCustomizer, a variadic argument for passing options.

Container Options

When starting the Pulsar container, you can pass options in a variadic way to configure it.

Image

If you need to set a different Pulsar Docker image, you can use testcontainers.WithImage with a valid Docker image for Pulsar. E.g. testcontainers.WithImage("docker.io/apachepulsar/pulsar:2.10.2").

testcontainers.WithImage("docker.io/apachepulsar/pulsar:2.10.2"),

Wait Strategies

If you need to set a different wait strategy for Pulsar, you can use testcontainers.WithWaitStrategy with a valid wait strategy for Pulsar.

Info

The default deadline for the wait strategy is 60 seconds.

At the same time, it's possible to set a wait strategy and a custom deadline with testcontainers.WithWaitStrategyAndDeadline.

Docker type modifiers

If you need an advanced configuration for Pulsar, you can leverage the following Docker type modifiers:

  • testcontainers.WithConfigModifier
  • testcontainers.WithHostConfigModifier
  • testcontainers.WithEndpointSettingsModifier

Please read the Create containers: Advanced Settings documentation for more information.

testcontainers.WithConfigModifier(func(config *container.Config) {
    config.Env = append(config.Env, "PULSAR_MEM= -Xms512m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxDirectMemorySize=512m")
}),
testcontainers.WithHostConfigModifier(func(hostConfig *container.HostConfig) {
    hostConfig.Resources = container.Resources{
        Memory: 1024 * 1024 * 1024,
    }
}),
testcontainers.WithEndpointSettingsModifier(func(settings map[string]*network.EndpointSettings) {
    settings[nwName] = &network.EndpointSettings{
        Aliases: []string{"pulsar"},
    }
}),

Pulsar Configuration

If you need to set Pulsar configuration variables you can use the WithPulsarEnv to set Pulsar environment variables: the PULSAR_PREFIX_ prefix will be automatically added for you.

For example, if you want to enable brokerDeduplicationEnabled:

testcontainerspulsar.WithPulsarEnv("brokerDeduplicationEnabled", "true"),

It will result in the PULSAR_PREFIX_brokerDeduplicationEnabled=true environment variable being set in the container request.

Pulsar IO

If you need to test Pulsar IO framework you can enable the Pulsar Functions Worker with the WithFunctionsWorker option:

testcontainerspulsar.WithFunctionsWorker(),

Pulsar Transactions

If you need to test Pulsar Transactions you can enable the transactions feature:

testcontainerspulsar.WithTransactions(),

Log consumers

If you need to collect the logs from the Pulsar container, you can add your own LogConsumer with the WithLogConsumers function, which accepts a variadic argument of LogConsumers.

if len(c.LogConsumers) > 0 {
    c.WithLogConsumers(ctx, tt.logConsumers...)
    defer c.StopLogProducer()
}

An example of a LogConsumer could be the following:

// logConsumer is a testcontainers.LogConsumer that prints the log to stdout
type testLogConsumer struct{}

// Accept prints the log to stdout
func (lc *testLogConsumer) Accept(l testcontainers.Log) {
    fmt.Print(string(l.Content))
}

Warning

You will need to explicitly stop the producer in your tests.

If you want to know more about LogConsumers, please check the Following Container Logs documentation.

Container methods

Once you have a Pulsar container, then you can retrieve the broker and the admin url:

Admin URL

serviceURL, err := c.HTTPServiceURL(ctx)
require.Nil(t, err)

Broker URL

brokerURL, err := c.BrokerURL(ctx)
require.Nil(t, err)
