README

The Laravel SQS Queue Reader is a powerful extension designed to seamlessly integrate external webhooks into your Laravel application. By leveraging the reliability and scalability of Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS), this extension ensures that your application efficiently processes incoming webhooks, minimizing downtime and enhancing overall performance.

Key Features:

Effortless Webhook Integration:

Easily integrate external webhooks into your Laravel application without compromising on performance.

Queue-Based Processing:

Harness the power of Amazon SQS to queue incoming webhooks, allowing for asynchronous and parallel processing, ensuring optimal response times.

Reliability and Scalability:

SQS provides a robust and scalable infrastructure, ensuring that your application can handle varying webhook loads without compromising on stability.

Seamless Laravel Integration:

Designed as a Laravel extension, the Webhook Queue Reader seamlessly integrates into your Laravel project, following Laravel's coding standards and conventions.

Configurable Settings:

Customize the extension's settings to align with your application's requirements, including queue names, visibility timeout, and other SQS-specific configurations.

Detailed Logging:

Gain insights into the webhook processing flow with detailed logging, helping you troubleshoot and monitor the system effectively.

How It Works:

Webhook Registration:

SQS Queue Integration:

Incoming webhooks are efficiently processed through the SQS queue, ensuring optimal handling of webhook payloads.

Asynchronous Processing:

Leverage the asynchronous processing capabilities of SQS to handle webhooks in the background, preventing any impact on your application's response times.

Automatic Retries:

Benefit from SQS's automatic retries, ensuring that failed webhook processing attempts are retried without manual intervention.

Custom SQS queue reader for Laravel projects that supports raw JSON payloads and reads multiple messages. Laravel expects SQS messages to be generated in a specific format that includes job handler class and a serialized job.

Note: Implemented to read multiple messages from queue.

This library is very useful when you want to parse messages from 3rd party applications such as stripe webhooks, shopify webhooks, mailgun web hooks, custom JSON messages and so on.

Getting Started

Install Custom SQS queue reader for Laravel via composer:

composer require palpalani/laravel-sqs-queue-json-reader

You can publish the config file and Configure your SQS settings in the Laravel configuration file.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="palPalani\SqsQueueReader\SqsQueueReaderServiceProvider" --tag="config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

/**
 * List of plain SQS queues and their corresponding handling classes
 */
return [

    // Separate queue handler with corresponding queue name as key.
    'handlers' => [
        'stripe-webhooks' => [
            'class' => App\Jobs\StripeHandler::class,
            'count' => 10,
        ],
        'mailgun-webhooks' => [
            'class' => App\Jobs\MailgunHandler::class,
            'count' => 10,
        ]
    ],

    // If no handlers specified then default handler will be executed.
    'default-handler' => [

        // Name of the handler class
        'class' => App\Jobs\SqsHandler::class,

        // Number of messages need to read from SQS.
        'count' => 1,
    ]
];

If the queue is not found in 'handlers' array, SQS payload is passed to default handler.

Add sqs-json connection to your config/queue.php, Example:

    [
        // Add new SQS connection
        'sqs-json' => [
            'driver' => 'sqs-json',
            'key'    => env('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID', ''),
            'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY', ''),
            'prefix' => env('AWS_SQS_PREFIX', 'https://sqs.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/1234567890'),
            'queue'  => env('AWS_SQS_QUEUE', 'external-webhooks'),
            'region' => env('AWS_DEFAULT_REGION', 'us-west-2'),
        ],
    ]

In your .env file, choose sqs-json as your new default queue driver:

QUEUE_DRIVER=sqs-json

Enjoy seamless, reliable, and scalable webhook processing!

Dispatching to SQS

If you plan to push plain messages from Laravel, you can rely on DispatcherJob:

use palPalani\SqsQueueReader\Jobs\DispatcherJob;

class ExampleController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
        // Dispatch job with some data.
        $job = new DispatcherJob([
            'music' => 'Ponni nathi from PS-1',
            'singer' => 'AR. Rahman',
            'time' => time()
        ]);

        // Dispatch the job as you normally would
        // By default, your data will be encapsulated in 'data' and 'job' field will be added
        $this->dispatch($job);

        // If you wish to submit a true plain JSON, add setPlain()
        $this->dispatch($job->setPlain());
    }
}

Above code will push the following JSON object to SQS queue:

{"job":"App\\Jobs\\SqsHandler@handle","data":{"music":"Sample SQS message","singer":"AR. Rahman","time":1464511672}}

'job' field is not used, actually. It's just kept for compatibility with Laravel Framework.

Processing job

Run the following commnd for testing the dispatched job.

php artisan queue:work sqs-json

For production, use supervisor with the following configuration.

[program:sqs-json-reader]
process_name=%(program_name)s_%(process_num)02d
command=php /var/html/app/artisan queue:work sqs-json --sleep=60 --timeout=10 --tries=2 --memory=128 --daemon
directory=/var/html/app
autostart=true
autorestart=true
startretries=10
user=root
numprocs=1
redirect_stderr=true
stdout_logfile=/var/html/app/horizon.log
stderr_logfile=/tmp/horizon-error.log
stopwaitsecs=3600
priority=1000

If you are using multiple connection, then duplicate above supervisor configutation and change the connection name.

Receiving from SQS

If a 3rd-party application or API Gateway to SQS implementation is creating custom-format JSON messages, just add a handler in the config file and implement a handler class as follows:

use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\Job as LaravelJob;

class SqsHandlerJob extends Job
{
    /**
     * @var null|array $data
     */
    protected $data;

    /**
     * @param LaravelJob $job
     * @param null|array $data
     */
    public function handle(LaravelJob $job, ?array $data): void
    {
        // This is incoming JSON payload, already decoded to an array
        var_dump($data);

        // Raw JSON payload from SQS, if necessary
        var_dump($job->getRawBody());
    }
}

Note:

Ensure that your Laravel application is configured with the necessary AWS credentials and permissions to interact with SQS.

Enhance your Laravel application's webhook processing capabilities with the Laravel Webhook Queue Reader. Efficient, reliable, and designed for optimal performance!
