Configuration

Following environment variables may be set:

Variable  Usage  Default value
GOPUBSUB_CONFIG Config file path config.yaml (within /go/src/app/ in Docker image)
GOPUBSUB_PORT Listening HTTP port 8080
GOPUBSUB_MAX_MESSAGES Only keep last n messages per topic 10
GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS Path to JSON credentials file none
PUBSUB_EMULATOR_HOST Host of emulator (see below) none
GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT Default project name default-project

The config.yaml file

To get GoPubSub working, you'll need to create config.yaml file with your topics and subscriptions info:

topics:
  -
    name: my-topic
    project: my-gcp-project
    subscription: my-subscription
  -
    name: my-other-topic
    project: other-gcp-project
    subscription: my-other-subscription
    payloads:
      -
        name: hello
        payload: |
          {"hello": "world"}
      -
        name: hello-again
        payload: |
          {"hello": "world again"}
  -
    name: my-last-topic

Note that all non-existant topic or subscription will be created. If no subscription is given for a topic, it will be created as sub-<topic-name>.
