Service Registry

Create Registry

Kitex provides three functions to create service registry.

NewEtcdRegistry

NewEtcdRegistry uses etcd to create a new service registry, requires passing in the endpoint value. Customizable service registry configuration, see Option for configuration details.

Function signature:

func NewEtcdRegistry(endpoints []string, opts ...Option) (registry.Registry, error)

Example:

package main

import (
    ...
    "github.com/cloudwego/kitex/pkg/rpcinfo"
    "github.com/cloudwego/kitex/server"
    etcd "github.com/kitex-contrib/registry-etcd"
    ...
)

func main() {
    ...
    r, err := etcd.NewEtcdRegistry([]string{"127.0.0.1:2379"}) // r should not be reused.
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    // https://www.cloudwego.io/docs/tutorials/framework-exten/registry/#integrate-into-kitex
    server, err := echo.NewServer(new(EchoImpl), server.WithServerBasicInfo(&rpcinfo.EndpointBasicInfo{ServiceName: "echo"}), server.WithRegistry(r))
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    err = server.Run()
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    ...
}

NewEtcdRegistryWithAuth

NewEtcdRegistryWithAuth create a service registry with auth arguments.

Function signature:

func NewEtcdRegistryWithAuth(endpoints []string, username, password string) (registry.Registry, error)

Example:

package main

import (
    ...
	"github.com/cloudwego/kitex/server"
	etcd "github.com/kitex-contrib/registry-etcd"
)

type HelloImpl struct{}

func (h *HelloImpl) Echo(ctx context.Context, req *api.Request) (resp *api.Response, err error) {
	resp = &api.Response{
		Message: req.Message,
	}
	return
}

func main() {
	// creates a etcd based registry with given username and password
	r, err := etcd.NewEtcdRegistryWithAuth([]string{"127.0.0.1:2379"}, "username", "password")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	server := hello.NewServer(new(HelloImpl), server.WithRegistry(r), server.WithServerBasicInfo(&rpcinfo.EndpointBasicInfo{
		ServiceName: "Hello",
	}))
	err = server.Run()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}

NewEtcdRegistryWithRetry

NewEtcdRegistryWithRetry create a service registry with custom Retry configuration.

Function signature:

func NewEtcdRegistryWithRetry(endpoints []string, retryConfig *retry.Config, opts ...Option) (registry.Registry, error)

Use NewRetryConfig(opts ...Option) *Config to create Retry configuration, see Option for configuration details.

Example:

package main

import (
	"context"
	"log"
	"time"

	"github.com/cloudwego/kitex-examples/hello/kitex_gen/api"

func (h *HelloImpl) Echo(ctx context.Context, req *api.Request) (resp *api.Response, err error) {
	resp = &api.Response{
		Message: req.Message,
	}
	return
}

func main() {
	retryConfig := retry.NewRetryConfig(
		retry.WithMaxAttemptTimes(10),
		retry.WithObserveDelay(20*time.Second),
		retry.WithRetryDelay(5*time.Second),
	)
	r, err := etcd.NewEtcdRegistryWithRetry([]string{"127.0.0.1:2379"}, retryConfig)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	server := hello.NewServer(new(HelloImpl), server.WithRegistry(r), server.WithServerBasicInfo(&rpcinfo.EndpointBasicInfo{
		ServiceName: "Hello",
	}))
	err = server.Run()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}

Option

Etcd extension provides option configuration in the service registry section.

WithTLSOpt

Etcd extension provides WithTLSOpt to help users configure the TLS option in Etcd.

Function signature:

func WithTLSOpt(certFile, keyFile, caFile string) Option

WithAuthOpt

Etcd extension provides WithTLSOpt to help users configure the Username and Password option in Etcd.

Function signature:

func WithAuthOpt(username, password string) Option

WithDialTimeoutOpt

Etcd extension provides WithDialTimeoutOpt to help users configure the dial timeout.

Function signature:

func WithDialTimeoutOpt(dialTimeout time.Duration) Option

Retry

After the service is registered to ETCD, it will regularly check the status of the service. If any abnormal status is found, it will try to register the service again. ObserveDelay is the delay time for checking the service status under normal conditions, and RetryDelay is the delay time for attempting to register the service after disconnecting.

Default Configuration

Configuration Default Value description
WithMaxAttemptTimes(maxAttemptTimes uint) Option 5 Used to set the maximum number of attempts, if 0, it means infinite attempts
WithObserveDelay(observeDelay time.Duration) Option 30 * time.Second Used to set the delay time for checking service status under normal connection conditions
WithRetryDelay(t time.Duration) Option 10 * time.Second Used to set the retry delay time after disconnecting

Service Discovery

Create Resolver

Kitex provides two functions to create Resolver.

Function signature:

func NewEtcdResolver(endpoints []string, opts ...Option) (discovery.Resolver, error)

Example:

package main

import (
    ...
    "github.com/cloudwego/kitex/client"
    etcd "github.com/kitex-contrib/registry-etcd"
    ...
)

func main() {
    ...
    r, err := etcd.NewEtcdResolver([]string{"127.0.0.1:2379"})
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    client, err := echo.NewClient("echo", client.WithResolver(r))
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    ...
}

NewEtcdResolverWithAuth

)

func main() { 
	// creates a etcd based resolver with given username and password
	r, err := etcd.NewEtcdResolverWithAuth([]string{"127.0.0.1:2379"}, "username", "password")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	client := hello.MustNewClient("Hello", client.WithResolver(r))
	for {
		ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), time.Second*3)
		resp, err := client.Echo(ctx, &api.Request{Message: "Hello"})

import (
	"context"
	"log"

	"github.com/cloudwego/kitex-examples/hello/kitex_gen/api"
	"github.com/cloudwego/kitex-examples/hello/kitex_gen/api/hello"
	"github.com/cloudwego/kitex/pkg/rpcinfo"

	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	server := hello.NewServer(new(HelloImpl), server.WithRegistry(r), server.WithServerBasicInfo(&rpcinfo.EndpointBasicInfo{
		ServiceName: "Hello",
	}))
	err = server.Run()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}

Client

package main

import (
	"context"
	"log"
	"time"

	"github.com/cloudwego/kitex-examples/hello/kitex_gen/api"
	"github.com/cloudwego/kitex-examples/hello/kitex_gen/api/hello"
	"github.com/cloudwego/kitex/client"
	etcd "github.com/kitex-contrib/registry-etcd"
)

func main() {
	r, err := etcd.NewEtcdResolver([]string{"127.0.0.1:2379"})
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	client := hello.MustNewClient("Hello", client.WithResolver(r))
	for {
		ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), time.Second*3)
		resp, err := client.Echo(ctx, &api.Request{Message: "Hello"})
		cancel()
		if err != nil {
			log.Fatal(err)
		}
		log.Println(resp)
		time.Sleep(time.Second)
	}
}

Instance Information

The Etcd extension encapsulates the registration information of service instances. When using Kitex to communicate with other services, refer to this section for manual encapsulation.

The Key for each instance is composed of a Prefix and service metadata, formatted as follows:

kitex/registry-etcd/{serviceName}{addr}

The Value for an instance is a JSON string, which serializes an instanceInfo structure, defined as follows:

type instanceInfo struct {
	Network string            `json:"network"`
	Address string            `json:"address"`
	Weight  int               `json:"weight"`
	Tags    map[string]string `json:"tags"`
}

When parsing Kitex service instances in other services, you can search using the prefix kitex/registry-etcd/{serviceName} to find all instances of the specified service, and select instances based on the instanceInfo information.

Configuration

The configuration of Etcd client and server can be customized, refer to the configuration of etcd-client.
