CloudEventsReceiver

@webda/cloudevents


Class: CloudEventsReceiver<T>

Defined in: cloudevents/src/services/cloudeventsreceiver.service.ts:234

Receive CloudEvents over HTTP and dispatch them to handlers

The POST route accepts the three HTTP content modes of the CloudEvents binding: binary (ce-* headers), structured (application/cloudevents+json) and batch (application/cloudevents-batch+json). It is the sink of a Knative Trigger (the Webda/KnativeDeployer triggers parameter generates them), of a CloudEvents Subscription, or of any producer posting CloudEvents.

Response contract: 202 acknowledges the events (200 with the reply CloudEvent when a handler returns one), 400 refuses a malformed or invalid event (the sender must not retry it) and a handler failure answers 500 so the sender retries (Knative retries then dead-letters). Delivery is at-least-once: handlers must be idempotent, dedupe only filters the retries reaching the same replica.

Handlers are registered by exact type or predicate with subscribe(), or declared with the @CloudEventHandler("com.acme.type") decorator on any service. The CloudEvents.Received, CloudEvents.Handled and CloudEvents.Failed Webda events are emitted around the dispatch.

_compiledCapabilities​

protected _compiledCapabilities: Record<string, any>

Defined in: core/lib/services/iservice.d.ts:50

Capabilities detected at compile-time from @WebdaCapability-tagged interfaces.

Fails silently if the application is not available (e.g., in unit tests where services are instantiated without a full application context).

Returns​

void

Example​

// If webda.module.json contains:
// { "moddas": { "MyApp/HawkService": { "capabilities": ["request-filter", "cors-filter"] } } }

// { "request-filter": {}, "cors-filter": {} }
