transport.ConnectionString(...)
to specify the connection string via code.CredentialSource
Optional
Default: AWS SDK credentials
By default the endpoint uses the SDK to retrieve AWS credentials. The AWS SDK permits a large number of transparent methods for configuring the credentials as outlined in the .NET SDK guidelines.
Example: To manually control the credentials retrieval, specify:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.ClientFactory(() => new AmazonSQSClient(new InstanceProfileAWSCredentials()));
for S3 specify
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
var s3Configuration = transport.S3(bucketName, keyPrefix);
s3Configuration.ClientFactory(() => new AmazonS3Client(new InstanceProfileAWSCredentials()));
Region
Mandatory
Default: AWS SDK
By default the endpoint uses the SDK to retrieve the default AWS region from the AWS_REGION
environment variable.
This is the Amazon Web Services Region in which to access the SQS service. The value must be a valid AWS region code.
Example: To manually control the region, specify
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.ClientFactory(() => new AmazonSQSClient(
new AmazonSQSConfig {
RegionEndpoint = RegionEndpoint.APSoutheast2
}));
for S3 specify
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
var s3Configuration = transport.S3(bucketName, keyPrefix);
s3Configuration.ClientFactory(() => new AmazonS3Client(
new AmazonS3Config
{
RegionEndpoint = RegionEndpoint.APSoutheast2
}));
ProxyHost and ProxyPort
Optional
Default: Empty
This is the name of the host of the proxy server that the client must authenticate to.
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.ClientFactory(() => new AmazonSQSClient(
new AmazonSQSConfig {
ProxyCredentials = new NetworkCredential(userName, password),
ProxyHost = "127.0.0.1",
ProxyPort = 8888
}));
for S3 specify
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
var s3Configuration = transport.S3(bucketName, keyPrefix);
s3Configuration.ClientFactory(() => new AmazonS3Client(
new AmazonS3Config
{
ProxyCredentials = new NetworkCredential(userName, password),
ProxyHost = "127.0.0.1",
ProxyPort = 8888
}));
SQS Client
Optional
Default: new AmazonSQSClient()
By default the transport uses a parameterless constructor to build the SQS client. This overrides the default SQS client with a custom one.
Example: To use a custom client, specify:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.ClientFactory(() => new AmazonSQSClient(new AmazonSQSConfig()));
SNS Client
Optional
Default: new AmazonSimpleNotificationServiceClient()
By default the transport uses a parameterless constructor to build the SNS client. This overrides the default SNS client with a custom one.
Example: To use a custom client, specify:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.ClientFactory(() => new AmazonSimpleNotificationServiceClient(new AmazonSimpleNotificationServiceConfig()));
DoNotWrapOutgoingMessages
Optional
Default: false
By default the transport wraps and base64 encodes outgoing messages to ensure compatibility with endpoints running version 6.0 of the transport or below.
Example: To disable message wrapping and base64 encoding of outgoing messages:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.DoNotWrapOutgoingMessages();
Message Attributes
When the DoNotWrapOutgoingMessages
setting is enabled, all NServiceBus headers will be stored in the NServiceBus.
message attribute. If the message is being sent to a non NServiceBus endpoint, the consumer can use message attributes to handle a message in a particular way without having to process the message body first.
NServiceBus.AmazonSQS.Headers
message attribute to ensure compatibility.MaxTTLDays
Optional
Default: 4
This is the maximum number of days that a message will be retained within SQS and S3. When a sent message is not received and successfully processed within the specified time, the message will be lost. This value applies to both SQS and S3 - messages in SQS will be deleted after this amount of time, and large message bodies stored in S3 will automatically be deleted after this amount of time.
The maximum value is 14 days.
Example: To set this to the maximum value, specify:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.MaxTimeToLive(TimeSpan.FromDays(10));
QueueNamePrefix
Optional
Default: None
This string value is prepended to the name of every SQS queue referenced by the endpoint. This is useful when deploying many instances of the same application in the same AWS region (e.g. a development instance, a QA instance, and a production instance), and the queue names must be distinguished from each other.
Example: For a development instance, specify:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.QueueNamePrefix("DEV-");
For example, queue names for the endpoint called "SampleEndpoint" might be:
DEV-SampleEndpoint
DEV-SampleEndpoint-Retries
DEV-SampleEndpoint-Timeouts
DEV-SampleEndpoint-TimeoutsDispatcher
S3BucketForLargeMessages
Optional
Default: Empty. Any attempt to send a large message with an empty S3 bucket will fail.
This is the name of an S3 Bucket that will be used to store message bodies for messages larger than 256kB in size. If this option is not specified, S3 will not be used at all. Any attempt to send a message larger than 256kB will throw an exception if a value is not supplied for this parameter.
If the specified bucket doesn't exist, it will be created when the endpoint starts.
Example: To use a bucket named nsb-sqs-messages
, specify:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
var s3Configuration = transport.S3(
bucketForLargeMessages: "nsb-sqs-messages",
keyPrefix: "my/sample/path");
S3KeyPrefix
Optional
Default: Empty
This is the path within the specified S3 Bucket to store large message bodies. If this option is specified without a value for S3BucketForLargeMessages, an exception will be thrown.
S3 Client
Optional
Default: new AmazonS3Client()
By default the transport uses a parameterless constructor to build the S3 client. This overrides the default S3 client with a custom one.
Example: To use a custom client, specify:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
var s3Configuration = transport.S3(bucketName, keyPrefix);
s3Configuration.ClientFactory(() => new AmazonS3Client(new AmazonS3Config()));
ServerSideEncryption
Optional
Default: Null
Specifies the server-side encryption method and an optional key management service key ID to be used when storing large message bodies on S3. If this option is specified in addition to server-side customer encryption, an exception will be thrown.
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
var s3Configuration = transport.S3(bucketName, keyPrefix);
s3Configuration.ServerSideEncryption(ServerSideEncryptionMethod.AES256, keyManagementServiceKeyId: "keyId");
ServerSideCustomerEncryption
Optional
Default: Null
Specifies the server-side customer encryption method, the encryption key and an optional MD5 of the provided key to be used when storing and retrieving large message bodies using S3. If this option is specified with an empty key or in addition to server-side encryption, an exception will be thrown.
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
var s3Configuration = transport.S3(bucketName, keyPrefix);
s3Configuration.ServerSideCustomerEncryption(ServerSideEncryptionCustomerMethod.AES256, "key", providedKeyMD5: "keyMD5");
V1 Compatibility Mode
Optional
Default: Disabled
This option enables serialization of the TimeToBeReceived
and ReplyToAddress
message headers in the message envelope for compatibility with endpoints using version 1 of the transport.
Example: To enable version 1 compatibility, specify:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.EnableV1CompatibilityMode();
Unrestricted Delayed Delivery
Optional
Default: disabled
SQS supports delaying message delivery by up to 15 minutes natively. To delay messages longer than 15 minutes, the unrestricted delayed delivery mode has to be enabled.
Example
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.UnrestrictedDurationDelayedDelivery();
For a detailed overview about the unrestricted delayed delivery feature, refer to the delayed delivery documentation.
TopicNamePrefix
Optional
Default: None
This string value is prepended to the name of every SNS topic subscribed by the endpoint. This is useful when deploying many instances of the same application in the same AWS region (e.g. a development instance, a QA instance, and a production instance), and the topic names must be distinguished from each other.
Example: For a development instance, specify:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.TopicNamePrefix("DEV-");
For example, topic names for the topic called "MyNameSpace.MyEvent" might be:
DEV-MyNameSpace-MyEvent
TopicNameGenerator
Optional
Default: $"{topicNamePrefix}{eventType.
with unsupported characters like .
being replaced with a hyphen -
Provides the ability to override the topic name generation with a custom function that allows creating topics in alignment with custom conventions.
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.TopicNameGenerator((eventType, topicNamePrefix) => $"{topicNamePrefix}{eventType.Name}");
Be aware that ServiceControl doesn't allow customization of this convention when publishing ServiceControl events. ServiceControl events will be published using the default naming convention.
Custom topics mappings
The transport topology describes in depth how the topology is determined by subscribers. There are scenarios in which a custom mapping is needed.
The MapEvent
transport configuration API can be used to customize the way subscribers determine the topic to subscribe to. If the subscribers have knowledge of both the published event type and the subscribed one, the following API can be used:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.MapEvent<SubscribedEvent, PublishedEvent>();
If the published type is not known at compilation time, the following API can be used:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.MapEvent<SubscribedEvent>("topic-used-by-the-publisher");
Policy
NServiceBus automatically subscribes to all event types an endpoint has handlers for. For example, an endpoint may have two handlers:
public class OrderAcceptedHandler : IHandleMessages<OrderAccepted> { ... }
public class OrderPaidHandler : IHandleMessages<OrderPaid> { ... }
The transport creates a policy statement for the event types it subscribes to:
{
...
"Statement": [
{
...
"Action": "sqs:SendMessage",
"Resource": "arn:aws:sqs:some-region:some-account:endpoint",
"Condition": {
"ArnLike": {
"aws:SourceArn": [
"arn:aws:sns:some-region:some-account:Sales-OrderAccepted",
"arn:aws:sns:some-region:some-account:Sales-OrderPaid"
]
}
}
}
]
}
The policy statement is updated when an endpoint explicitly subscribes to an event type using session.
. Unsubscribing does not modify the policy.
Wildcards
Account condition
Allow all messages from any topic in the account. The account name is extracted from the subscribed topic ARN.
var policies = transport.Policies();
policies.AddAccountCondition();
Prefix condition
Allow all messages from any topic with the specified topic name prefix.
var policies = transport.Policies();
policies.AddTopicNamePrefixCondition();
Namespace condition
Allow all messages in specific namespaces.
var policies = transport.Policies();
policies.AddNamespaceCondition("Sales.");
policies.AddNamespaceCondition("Shipping.HighValueOrders.");
Disabling runtime policy modification
If the policy is modified during deployment it may be better to disable runtime policy modification.
var policies = transport.Policies();
policies.AssumePolicyHasAppropriatePermissions();
Message driven pub/sub compatibility mode
To gradually move an existing system from message driven pub/sub to native pub/sub using SNS, it's possible to enable message-driven pub/sub compatibility mode.
Message-driven pub/sub compatibility mode must be enabled on publisher endpoints. When enabled, publishers will still consume subscription messages sent by endpoints using message-driven pub/sub, and when publishing an event, it will be published both to legacy subscribers and to SNS. Publishers deduplicate published events.
To enable message-driven Pub/Sub compatibility mode, configure the endpoint as follows:
var transport = endpointConfiguration.UseTransport<SqsTransport>();
transport.EnableMessageDrivenPubSubCompatibilityMode();
Subscription cache configuration
The default value for SNS topic subscription cache invalidation (5 seconds) can be changed using:
var migrationSettings = transport.EnableMessageDrivenPubSubCompatibilityMode();
migrationSettings.SubscriptionsCacheTTL(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30));
Topic cache configuration
The default value for SNS topic cache invalidation (5 seconds) can be changed using:
var migrationSettings = transport.EnableMessageDrivenPubSubCompatibilityMode();
migrationSettings.TopicCacheTTL(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30));
Message visibility timeout
The default value for the message visibility timeout setting (30 seconds) can be changed using:
var migrationSettings = transport.EnableMessageDrivenPubSubCompatibilityMode();
migrationSettings.MessageVisibilityTimeout(timeoutInSeconds: 10);
