pubsub-emulator-toolkit

Tool to better test Google Pub/Sub calls and messages while using the gcloud emulator locally

Usage

Start the emulator (google's docs)

gcloud beta emulators pubsub start --project=YOUR_PUBSUB_PROJECTID

Set the environment variable with the Pub/Sub emulator address
```
export PUBSUB_EMULATOR_HOST=localhost:8085
```
Run the toolkit
```
go run main.go YOUR_PUBSUB_PROJECTID
```

newtopic <topic-id> creates a new topic with name 'topic-id'
publish <topic-id> <data> <attributes> publishes on topic-id the message data with attributes attributes. This is mostly hardcoded, but you can change the message easily in the code itself
showtopics lists all the topics in the active project
showsubs lists all the subscriptions in the active project
exit gracefully exits the program, even if CTRL + C has no side effects.
