====================
Bucket Notifications
====================

.. versionadded:: Nautilus

.. contents::

Bucket notifications provide a mechanism for sending information out of radosgw
when certain events happen on the bucket. Notifications can be sent to HTTP
endpoints, AMQP0.9.1 endpoints, and Kafka endpoints.

The `PubSub Module`_ (and *not* the bucket-notification mechanism) should be
used for events stored in Ceph. 

A user can create topics. A topic entity is defined by its name and is "per
tenant". A user can associate its topics (via notification configuration) only
with buckets it owns.

A notification entity must be created in order to send event notifications for
a specific bucket. A notification entity can be created either for a subset
of event types or for all event types (which is the default). The
notification may also filter out events based on matches of the prefixes and
suffixes of (1) the keys, (2) the metadata attributes attached to the object,
or (3) the object tags. Regular-expression matching can also be used on these
to create filters. There can be multiple notifications for any specific topic,
and the same topic can used for multiple notifications.

REST API has been defined so as to provide configuration and control interfaces
for the bucket notification mechanism. This API is similar to the one defined
as the S3-compatible API of the `PubSub Module`_.

   S3 Bucket Notification Compatibility <s3-notification-compatibility>

.. note:: To enable bucket notifications API, the `rgw_enable_apis` configuration parameter should contain: "notifications".

Notification Reliability
------------------------

Notifications can be sent synchronously or asynchronously. This section
describes the latency and reliability that you should expect for synchronous
and asynchronous notifications.

Synchronous Notifications
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Notifications can be sent synchronously, as part of the operation that
triggered them. In this mode, the operation is acknowledged (acked) only after
the notification is sent to the topic's configured endpoint. This means that
the round trip time of the notification (the time it takes to send the
notification to the topic's endpoint plus the time it takes to receive the
acknowledgement) is added to the latency of the operation itself.

.. note:: The original triggering operation is considered successful even if
   the notification fails with an error, cannot be delivered, or times out.

Asynchronous Notifications
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Notifications can be sent asynchronously. They are committed into persistent
storage and then asynchronously sent to the topic's configured endpoint. In
this case, the only latency added to the original operation is the latency
added when the notification is committed to persistent storage.

.. note:: If the notification fails with an error, cannot be delivered, or
   times out, it is retried until it is successfully acknowledged.

.. tip:: To minimize the latency added by asynchronous notification, we 
   recommended placing the "log" pool on fast media.


Topic Management via CLI
------------------------

Configuration of all topics, associated with a tenant, could be fetched using the following command:

.. prompt:: bash #

   radosgw-admin topic list [--tenant={tenant}]


Configuration of a specific topic could be fetched using:

.. prompt:: bash #

   radosgw-admin topic get --topic={topic-name} [--tenant={tenant}]


And removed using:

.. prompt:: bash #

   radosgw-admin topic rm --topic={topic-name} [--tenant={tenant}]


Notification Performance Stats
------------------------------
The same counters are shared between the pubsub sync module and the bucket notification mechanism.

- ``pubsub_event_triggered``: running counter of events with at least one topic associated with them
- ``pubsub_event_lost``: running counter of events that had topics associated with them but that were not pushed to any of the endpoints
- ``pubsub_push_ok``: running counter, for all notifications, of events successfully pushed to their endpoint
- ``pubsub_push_fail``: running counter, for all notifications, of events failed to be pushed to their endpoint
- ``pubsub_push_pending``: gauge value of events pushed to an endpoint but not acked or nacked yet

.. note::

    ``pubsub_event_triggered`` and ``pubsub_event_lost`` are incremented per event, while:
    ``pubsub_push_ok``, ``pubsub_push_fail``, are incremented per push action on each notification

Bucket Notification REST API
----------------------------

Topics
~~~~~~

.. note::

    In all topic actions, the parameters are URL-encoded and sent in the
    message body using this content type:
    ``application/x-www-form-urlencoded``.
   

Create a Topic
``````````````

This creates a new topic. Provide the topic with push endpoint parameters,
which will be used later when a notification is created. A response is
generated. A successful response includes the the topic's `ARN
<https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html>`_
(the "Amazon Resource Name", a unique identifier used to reference the topic).
To update a topic, use the same command that you used to create it (but when
updating, use the name of an existing topic and different endpoint values).

.. tip:: Any notification already associated with the topic must be re-created
   in order for the topic to update.

.. note:: For rabbitmq, ``push-endpoint`` (with a hyphen in the middle) must be
   changed to ``push_endpoint`` (with an underscore in the middle).

   POST

   Action=CreateTopic
   &Name=<topic-name>
   [&Attributes.entry.1.key=amqp-exchange&Attributes.entry.1.value=<exchange>]
   [&Attributes.entry.2.key=amqp-ack-level&Attributes.entry.2.value=none|broker|routable]
   [&Attributes.entry.3.key=verify-ssl&Attributes.entry.3.value=true|false]
   [&Attributes.entry.4.key=kafka-ack-level&Attributes.entry.4.value=none|broker]
   [&Attributes.entry.5.key=use-ssl&Attributes.entry.5.value=true|false]
   [&Attributes.entry.6.key=ca-location&Attributes.entry.6.value=<file path>]
   [&Attributes.entry.7.key=OpaqueData&Attributes.entry.7.value=<opaque data>]
   [&Attributes.entry.8.key=push-endpoint&Attributes.entry.8.value=<endpoint>]
   [&Attributes.entry.9.key=persistent&Attributes.entry.9.value=true|false]

Request parameters:

- push-endpoint: This is the URI of an endpoint to send push notifications to.
- OpaqueData: Opaque data is set in the topic configuration and added to all
  notifications that are triggered by the topic.
- persistent: This indicates whether notifications to this endpoint are
  persistent (=asynchronous) or not persistent. (This is "false" by default.)

- HTTP endpoint

 - URI: ``http[s]://<fqdn>[:<port]``
 - port: This defaults to 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS.
 - verify-ssl: This indicates whether the server certificate is validated by
   the client. (This is "true" by default.)
 - cloudevents: This indicates whether the HTTP header should contain
   attributes according to the `S3 CloudEvents Spec`_. (This is "false" by
   default.)

- AMQP0.9.1 endpoint

 - URI: ``amqp[s]://[<user>:<password>@]<fqdn>[:<port>][/<vhost>]``
 - user/password: This defaults to "guest/guest".
 - user/password: This must be provided only over HTTPS. Topic creation
   requests will otherwise be rejected.
 - port: This defaults to 5672 for unencrypted connections and 5671 for
   SSL-encrypted connections.
 - vhost: This defaults to "/".
 - verify-ssl: This indicates whether the server certificate is validated by
   the client. (This is "true" by default.)
 - If ``ca-location`` is provided and a secure connection is used, the
   specified CA will be used to authenticate the broker. The default CA will
   not be used.  
 - amqp-exchange: The exchanges must exist and must be able to route messages
   based on topics. This parameter is mandatory.  Different topics that point
   to the same endpoint must use the same exchange.
 - amqp-ack-level: No end2end acking is required. Messages may persist in the
   broker before being delivered to their final destinations. Three ack methods
   exist:

  - "none": The message is considered "delivered" if it is sent to the broker.
  - "broker": The message is considered "delivered" if it is acked by the broker (default).
  - "routable": The message is considered "delivered" if the broker can route to a consumer.

.. tip:: The topic-name (see :ref:`radosgw-create-a-topic`) is used for the
   AMQP topic ("routing key" for a topic exchange).

- Kafka endpoint

 - URI: ``kafka://[<user>:<password>@]<fqdn>[:<port]``
 - ``use-ssl``: If this is set to "true", a secure connection is used to
   connect to the broker. (This is "false" by default.)
 - ``ca-location``: If this is provided and a secure connection is used, the
   specified CA will be used insted of the default CA to authenticate the
   broker. 
 - user/password: This must be provided only over HTTPS. Topic creation
   requests will otherwise be rejected.
 - user/password: This must be provided along with ``use-ssl``. Connections to
   the broker will otherwise fail.
 - port: This defaults to 9092.
 - kafka-ack-level: No end2end acking is required. Messages may persist in the
   broker before being delivered to their final destinations. Two ack methods
   exist:

  - "none": Messages are considered "delivered" if sent to the broker.
  - "broker": Messages are considered "delivered" if acked by the broker. (This
    is the default.)

.. note::

    - The key-value pair of a specific parameter need not reside in the same
      line as the parameter, and need not appear in any specific order, but it
      must use the same index.
    - Attribute indexing need not be sequential and need not start from any
      specific value.
    - `AWS Create Topic`_ provides a detailed explanation of the endpoint
      attributes format. In our case, however, different keys and values are
      used.

The response has the following format:

- If the endpoint URL contains user/password information in any part of the
  topic, the request must be made over HTTPS. The "topic list" request will
  otherwise be rejected.

Notifications
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Detailed under: `Bucket Operations`_.

.. note::

    - "Abort Multipart Upload" request does not emit a notification
    - Both "Initiate Multipart Upload" and "POST Object" requests will emit an ``s3:ObjectCreated:Post`` notification

Events
~~~~~~

Events are in JSON format (regardless of the actual endpoint), and share the
same structure as S3-compatible events that are pushed or pulled using the
pubsub sync module. For example:

::

   {"Records":[
       {
           "eventVersion":"2.1",
           "eventSource":"ceph:s3",
