REST Gateway (HTTP Proxy)

Introduction

To enable message production via HTTP calls for various use cases and ease of use, Memphis added an HTTP gateway to receive REST-based requests (=messages) and produce those messages to the required station.

Common use cases for the REST Gateway are

Produce events directly from a frontend
Produce CDC events using the Debezium HTTP server
ArgoCD webhooks
Receive data from Fivetran/Rivery/Any ETL platform using HTTP calls

Architecture

An endpoint creates an HTTP request toward the REST Gateway using port 4444
The REST gateway receives the incoming request and produces it as a message to the station

For scale requirements, the "REST gateway" component is separate from the brokers' pod and can scale out individually.

Security Mechanisms

JWT

Memphis REST (HTTP) gateway makes use of JWT-type identification.
JSON Web Tokens are an open, industry-standard RFC 7519 method for representing claims securely between two parties.

API Token

Soon.

Getting started

If you are using Memphis Open-Source version, please make sure your 'REST gateway' component is exposed either through localhost or public IP.

If you are using Memphis Cloud, it is already in.

1. Create a JWT token

Please create a JWT token, which will be part of each produce/consume request. For authentication purposes.

The generated JWT will encapsulate all the needed information for the broker to ensure the requester is authenticated to communicate with Memphis.
JWT token (by design) has an expiration time. Token refreshment can take place progrematically, but as it is often used to integrate memphis with other systems which are not supporting JWT refreshment, a workaround to overcome it would be to set a very high value in the token_expiry_in_minutes.
The default expiry time is 15 minutes.

Cloud (Using body params)

Please replace the [Cloud], [Region], Username, Password, and Account ID with your parameters.

curl --location --request POST 'https://[Cloud]-[Region].restgw.cloud.memphis.dev/auth/authenticate' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "username": "CLIENT_TYPE_USERNAME",
    "password": "CLIENT_TYPE_PASSWORD",
    "account_id": 123456789,
    "token_expiry_in_minutes": 6000000,
    "refresh_token_expiry_in_minutes": 100000
}'

Cloud (Using query params)

Please replace the [Cloud], [Region], Username, Password, and Account ID with your parameters.

curl --location --request POST 'https://[Cloud]-[Region].restgw.cloud.memphis.dev/auth/authenticate?accountId=123456789' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "username": "CLIENT_TYPE_USERNAME",
    "password": "CLIENT_TYPE_PASSWORD",
    "token_expiry_in_minutes": 6000000,
    "refresh_token_expiry_in_minutes": 100000
}'

Open-source

curl --location --request POST 'https://REST_GW_URL:4444/auth/authenticate' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "username": "CLIENT_TYPE_USERNAME",
    "password": "CLIENT_TYPE_PASSWORD,
    "token_expiry_in_minutes": 6000000,
    "refresh_token_expiry_in_minutes": 100000
}'

Expected output:

{"expires_in":3600000,"jwt":"eyJhbGciO***************nR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjE2NzQ3MTg0MjV9._A************UFoWZjp21UYVcjXwGWiYtacYPZR8","jwt_refresh_token":"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1N***************kpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjIy*********************7csm-jmJv0J45YrD_slvlEOKu2rs7Q","refresh_token_expires_in":600005520000}

Refresh a token

Before the JWT token expires or after an authentication failure, you must call the refresh procedure and get a new token. The refresh JWT token is valid by default for 5 hours.

Cloud

Please replace the [Cloud], [Region], Username, and Password with your parameters.

curl --location --request POST 'https://[Cloud]-[Region].restgw.cloud.memphis.dev/auth/refreshToken' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "jwt_refresh_token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjIyNz*******************VPSjtU4x02z_jbWhu5pIByhCRh6FU8",
    "token_expiry_in_minutes": 60000000,
    "refresh_token_expiry_in_minutes": 10000000
}'

Open-source

curl --location --request POST 'https://REST_GW_URL:4444/auth/refreshToken' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "jwt_refresh_token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjIyNz*******************VPSjtU4x02z_jbWhu5pIByhCRh6FU8",
    "token_expiry_in_minutes": 60000000,
    "refresh_token_expiry_in_minutes": 10000000
}'

Expected output:

{"expires_in":3600000,"jwt":"eyJhb**************5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjE2NzQ3MTg3N*******************F1-MmFGXRKn2sM8Yw","jwt_refresh_token":"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI*****************IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjIyNz***********************grsqYMPApAPS8YDgkT8R-69-Y5E","refresh_token_expires_in":600005520000}

4. Consume a batch of messages

To avoid reading the same message twice and reduce network traffic for an ack per message, which is not scalable, messages are auto-acknowledged by the rest gateway.

curl --location --request POST 'https://[Cloud]-[Region].restgw.cloud.memphis.dev/stations/STATION_NAME/consume/batch' \

--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "consumer_name": <consumer_name>,
    "consumer_group": <consumer_group>,
    "batch_size": <batch_size>,
    "batch_max_wait_time_ms": <batch_max_wait_time>,

}'

Expected output:

[
  {
    "message": "{\n    \"message\": \"message x\"\n}",
    "headers": {
      "Accept": "*/*",
      "Accept-Encoding": "gzip, deflate, br"
    }
  },
  {
    "message": "{\n    \"message\": \"message y\"\n}",
    "headers": {
