GrpcController

Abstract controller that receives remote calls via the GRPC protocol.

Implements: IOpenable, IConfigurable, IRegisterable, IUnreferenceable

Description

The GrpcController class allows you to create controllers that receive remote calls via the GRPC protocol.

Configuration parameters

  • dependencies:
    • endpoint: override for GRPC Endpoint dependency
    • controller: override for Controller dependency
  • connection(s):
    • discovery_key: (optional) key to retrieve the connection from IDiscovery
    • protocol: connection protocol: http or https
    • host: host name or IP address
    • port: port number
    • uri: resource URI or connection string with all parameters in it
  • credentials:
    • ssl_key_file: SSL private key in PEM
    • ssl_crt_file: SSL certificate in PEM
    • ssl_ca_file: certificate authorities (root cerfiticates) in PEM

References

  • *:discovery:*:*:1.0 - (optional) IDiscovery services
  • *:logger:*:*:1.0 - (optional) ILogger components to pass log messages
  • *:counters:*:*:1.0 - (optional) ICounters components to pass collected measurementsand as specified by the counter’s source.

Constructors

Creates a new instance of the controller.

GrpcController(controller_name: str)

  • controller_name: str - controller’s name.

Fields

_endpoint

The GRPC endpoint that exposes this controller.

_endpoint: GrpcEndpoint

The dependency resolver.

_dependency_resolver: DependencyResolver

_logger

The logger.

_logger: CompositeLogger

Abstract methods

register

Registers all controller routes in the HTTP endpoint.

This method is called by the controller and must be overriden in child classes.

Instance methods

_apply_validation

TODO: add description

_apply_validation(schema: Schema, action: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext], Any]): Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext], Any]

  • schema: Schema - TODO: add description
  • action: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext], Any] - TODO: add description
  • returns: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext], Any] - TODO: add description

_apply_interceptors

TODO: add description

_apply_interceptors(action: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext], Any]): Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext], Any]

  • action: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext], Any] - TODO: add description
  • returns: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext], Any] - TODO: add description

close

Closes the component and frees used resources.

close(context: Optional[IContext])

  • context: IContext - (optional) a context to trace execution through a call chainn.

configure

Configures component by passing configuration parameters.

configure(config: ConfigParams)

  • config: ConfigParams - configuration parameters to be set.

is_open

Checks if the component is open.

is_open(): bool

  • returns: bool -True if the endpoint is open with an actively listening GRPC server.

_instrument

Adds instrumentation to log calls and measures call time. It returns a CounterTiming object that is used to end the time measurement.

_instrument(context: Optional[IContext], name: str): InstrumentTiming

  • context: IContext - (optional) a context to trace execution through a call chain.
  • name: str - method name.
  • returns: InstrumentTiming - CounterTiming object used to end the time measurement.

_instrument_error

Adds instrumentation to error handling.

_instrument_error(context: Optional[IContext], name: str, err: Exception, reerror=False)

  • context: IContext - (optional) a context to trace execution through a call chain.
  • name: str - method name.
  • err: Exception - occured error
  • reerror: bool - if True - throw error

open

Opens the component.

open(context: Optional[IContext])

  • context: IContext - (optional) a context to trace execution through a call chain.

_register_interceptor

Registers a middleware for methods in GRPC endpoint.

_register_interceptor(interceptor: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext, Callable], Any])

  • interceptor: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext, Callable], Any] - middleware action to perform at the given route.

_register_method

Registers a middleware for methods in GRPC endpoint.

_register_method(name: str, schema: Schema, action: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext], Any])

  • name: str - method name
  • schema: Schema - validation schema to validate received parameters.
  • action: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext], Any] - action function that is called when operation is invoked.

_register_method_with_auth

Registers a method with authorization.

_register_method_with_auth(name: str, schema: Schema, authorize: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext, Callable], Any], action: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext, Callable], Any])

  • name: str - a method name
  • schema: Schema - a validation schema to validate received parameters.
  • authorize: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext, Callable], Any] - an authorization interceptor
  • action: Callable[[InvokeRequest, ServicerContext, Callable], Any] - an action function that is called when operation is invoked.

set_references

Sets references to dependent components.

set_references(references: IReferences)

  • references: IReferences - references to locate the component dependencies.

unset_references

Unsets (clears) previously set references to dependent components.

unset_references()
