Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

["Black, Carey M." <>]

Chris,

Thanks for the offer.

The initial ask was "SQS" but then they sent me SNS info. ( They verbally 
asked for the wrong thing and got me good and confused at the beginning. :( ) 
 
I ask for SQS info and then they set up an SQS for me and sent me those 
details too. 
So I think I can go either way ( SQS or SNS ) and I think there is a slight 
preference for SNS.

        Which lead to "what is supported and how do I get those things to 
work?".
                The installer only appears to install the SQS stuff. However 
the "filter logic" appears to be non-existent in the supplied code. (If I am 
reading it properly.)
                And the SNS code that I can find, seems to only be "get it 
some other way". 

        So that also got me good and confused about the Grouper side of this 
too. :(


Overall, the CLC --> SNS ( direct link without a need for other 
queue's/messaging systems) seems like the most direct path.
        So if that is supportable, I think that is the ideal path. 
        
"https://github.com/Internet2/grouper/tree/master/grouper-misc/grouper-aws-changelog";
 looks like it has all the features that I think I need and want. It just 
looks like a "one off" at this point. Which gave me pause about "just making 
that work".


My application community is "grouper folder centric". So if I could limit the 
CLC events from a stem (and maybe event types) then I think that is what I am 
after for the "filter functions".

Guidance/examples most welcome.

Do you want to send to sqs or sns?  And is it based on regex?  Let me know 
what you are trying to do and I can give you an example.  I would think there 
is an ESB -> Messaging connector, will need to dig that up.  The ESB can 
filter messages by regex...

Bump. ( No one knows anything about this? )

Follow up question:

looking 
"/grouper/src/grouper/edu/internet2/middleware/grouper/changeLog/ChangeLogConsumerToMessage.java"
 ...
        How do you limit the objects or event types that are sent to the 
message queue?

        Does this blindly send all of the Change Log Consumer events to the 
message queue? If so, that seems to verbose and not helpful to me.

Guidance?

state questions)

All,

I was asked to send some grouper events to an AWS SNS. ( For now, just 
publish from grouper to AWS. )

I reviewed: 
https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/Grouper+Messaging+System
        It has "Future implementations will include" "AWS SNS/SQS", but are 
we in the future yet? ( I suspect the wiki/docs may be out of date, but I 
could be overly optimistic about that too. 😊 )


After installing the "AWS SQS messaging" component it looks like that 
delivered integration only supports AWS SQS. ( based on: 
https://github.com/Internet2/grouper/tree/master/grouper-misc/grouper-messaging-aws
 ? based on the jar that showed up as: 
..../grouper.aws-2.3.0/lib/grouperSQSMessaging.jar )



However, I also found 
"https://github.com/Internet2/grouper/tree/master/grouper-misc/grouper-aws-changelog";
 which appears to be old (5'ish years) but might support AWS SNS.

Is the "grouper-aws-changelog" a standard/supported integration?
        Is it know to work?
        Are there docs on how to install/patch it onto an existing install?
        Did I miss an installer option? Or is it just a "manual build/install 
the jar" process?
        Is there another way to send SNS messages that I have not found?
        
Thanks in advance.
