# Unisub

Unisub is a Pub/Sub library for Rust, using Postgres as the backend. It offers a convenient way to publish and subscribe to messages across different topics.

## Features

- Publish messages to topics
- Subscribe to topics to receive messages
- Create and remove topics
- Includes a convenience binary for managing topics and running migrations
- Asynchronous design using Tokio

## Installation

Add Unisub as a dependency in your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
unisub = "*"
```

## Setting up the Postgres Environment

1. Install Postgres if you haven't already. You can download it from [here](https://www.postgresql.org/download/).
2. Create a new database and note the connection URL.
3. Make sure your Postgres database is accessible and running.

### Environment Variable

Set an environment variable called `DATABASE_URL` with the Postgres connection URL.

```bash
export DATABASE_URL=postgres://username:password@localhost/dbname
```

### Running Migrations and Setting Up Topics

#### Using CLI

First, run the migrations:

```bash
unisub migrate
```

Then you can add your topics:

```bash
unisub add-topic my_topic
```

#### Programmatically

```rust
use unisub::PubSub;
use unisub::migrate;
use sqlx::PgPool;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), unisub::Error> {
let pool = PgPool::connect("your_database_url").await?;
migrate(&pool).await?;
let mut pubsub = PubSub::new(pool).await?;
pubsub.add_topic("my_topic").await?;
Ok(())
}
```

## Usage

### Library

```rust
use unisub::PubSub;
use sqlx::PgPool;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), unisub::Error> {
let pool = PgPool::connect("your_database_url").await?;
let mut pubsub = PubSub::new(pool).await?;
pubsub.push("my_topic", b"My message").await?;
Ok(())
}
```

And here's an example of how to subscribe to a topic:

```rust
use unisub::PubSub;
use sqlx::PgPool;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), unisub::Error> {
// Connect to the database
let pool = PgPool::connect("your_database_url").await?;
let mut pubsub = PubSub::new(pool).await?;

// Subscribe to the topic
pubsub.subscribe("my_topic", |message| {
async {
// Print the received message
println!("Received message: {:?}", message);

// Simulate some asynchronous work with the received message
tokio::time::sleep(tokio::time::Duration::from_secs(2)).await;
println!("Finished processing message: {:?}", message);

Ok(())
}
}).await?;

Ok(())
}
```
