Angel3 Production Runner #




Helpers for concurrency, message-passing, rotating loggers, and other production functionality in Angel3 framework.

This will become the de-facto way to run Angel3 applications in deployed environments, as it takes care of inter-isolate communication, respawning dead processes, and other housekeeping for you automatically. Most users will want to use the Runner class.
Runner #
Runner is a utility, powered by package:args, that is intended to be the entry point of your application.
Instantiate it as follows, and your file will become a command-line executable that spawns multiple instances of your application:
import 'dart:async';
import 'dart:isolate';
import 'package:angel3_framework/angel3_framework.dart';
import 'package:angel3_production/angel3_production.dart';

void main(List<String> args) => Runner('example', configureServer).run(args);

Future configureServer(Angel app) async {
app.get('/', (req, res) => 'Hello, production world!');

app.get('/crash', (req, res) {
// We'll crash this instance deliberately, but the Runner will auto-respawn for us.
Timer(const Duration(seconds: 3), Isolate.current.kill);
return 'Crashing in 3s...';
});
}

Runner will automatically re-spawn crashed instances, unless --no-respawn is passed. This can prevent your server from entirely going down at the first error, and adds a layer of fault tolerance to your infrastructure.
When combined with systemd, deploying Angel3 applications on Linux can be very simple.
Message Passing #
The Runner class uses belatuk_pub_sub to coordinate
message passing between isolates. When one isolate sends a message, all other isolates will receive the same message, except for the isolate that sent it. It is injected into your application's Container as pub_sub.Client, so you can use it as follows:
// Use the injected `pub_sub.Client` to send messages.
var client = app.container.make<Client>();

// We can listen for an event to perform some behavior.
//
// Here, we use message passing to synchronize some common state.
var onGreetingChanged = await client.subscribe('user_upgraded');
onGreetingChanged
.cast<User>()
.listen((user) {
// Do something...
});

Customising Response Header #
Additional parameters can be passed to the Runner class to:

Remove headers from HTTP response.
Add headers to HTTP response.

For example, the following code snippet removes X-FRAME-OPTIONS and adds X-XSRF-TOKEN to the response header.

void main(List<String> args) {
// Remove 'X-FRAME-OPTIONS'
var removeHeader = {'X-FRAME-OPTIONS': 'SAMEORIGIN'};

// Add 'X-XSRF-TOKEN'
var customHeader = {
'X-XSRF-TOKEN':
'a591a6d40bf420404a011733cfb7b190d62c65bf0bcda32b57b277d9ad9f146e'
};

Runner('example', configureServer,
removeResponseHeaders: removeHeader, responseHeaders: customHeader)
.run(args);
}

Run-time Metadata #
At run-time, you may want to know information about the currently-running instance, for example, which number instance. For this, the InstanceInfo class is injected into each instance:
var instanceInfo = app.container.make<InstanceInfo>();
print('This is instance #${instanceInfo.id}');

Command-line Options #
The Runner class supplies options like the following:
appuser$ dart example/main.dart --help
_ _ _ ____ _____ _ _____
/ \ | \ | |/ ___| ____| | |___ /
/ _ \ | \| | | _| _| | | |_ \
/ ___ \| |\ | |_| | |___| |___ ___) |
/_/ \_\_| \_|\____|_____|_____|____/

A batteries-included, full-featured, full-stack framework in Dart.
