# OffBroadway.Splunk

![pipeline status](https://github.com/Intility/off_broadway_splunk/actions/workflows/elixir.yaml/badge.svg?event=push)

A Splunk consumer for [Broadway](https://github.com/dashbitco/broadway).

Broadway producer acts as a consumer for a given Splunk report or (triggered) alert.
The `OffBroadway.Splunk.Producer` process will query Splunk for available jobs for the given
report and keep them in a queue. Jobs wil then be processed sequentially (from earliest to latest)
and passed through the Broadway pipeline.

Read the full documentation [here](https://hexdocs.pm/off_broadway_splunk/readme.html).

## Installation

This package is [available in Hex](https://hex.pm/packages/off_broadway_splunk), and can be installed
by adding `off_broadway_splunk` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
[
{:off_broadway_splunk, "~> 2.0"}
]
end
```

## Usage

The `OffBroadway.Splunk.SplunkClient` tries to read the following configuration from `config.exs`.

```elixir
# config.exs

config :off_broadway_splunk, :splunk_client,
base_url: System.get_env("SPLUNK_BASE_URL", "https://splunk.example.com"),
api_token: System.get_env("SPLUNK_API_TOKEN", "your-api-token-here")
```

Options for the `OffBroadway.Splunk.SplunkClient` can be configured either in `config.exs` or passed as
options directly to the `OffBroadway.Splunk.Producer` module. Options are merged, with the passed options
taking precedence over those configured in `config.exs`.

```elixir
# my_broadway.ex

defmodule MyBroadway do
use Broadway

alias Broadway.Message

def start_link(_opts) do
Broadway.start_link(__MODULE__,
name: __MODULE__,
producer: [
module:
{OffBroadway.Splunk.Producer,
name: "My fine report",
config: [api_token: "override-api-token"]}
],
processors: [
default: []
],
batchers: [
default: [
batch_size: 500,
batch_timeout: 5000
]
]
)
end

...callbacks...
end
```

### Processing messages

In order to process incoming messages, we need to implement some callback functions.

```elixir
defmodule MyBroadway do
use Broadway

alias Broadway.Message

...start_link...

@impl true
def handle_message(_, %Message{data: data} ,_) do
message
|> Message.update_data(fn -> ...whatever... end)
end

@impl true
def handle_batch(_batcher, messages, _batch_info, _context) do
IO.puts("Received a batch of #{length(messages)} messages!")
messages
end
end
```

For the sake of the example, we're not really doing anything here. Whenever we're receiving a batch of messages, we just prints out a
message saying "Received a batch of messages!", and for each message we run `Message.update_data/2` passing a function that can process
that message ie. by doing some calculations on the data or something else.
