4. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Integrations
5. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Discussing complex, data- intensive integrations
6. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Let’s look at the new option in Magento 2
7. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA What is it? How do we use it?
8. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Magento 1 Integration Options • SOAP API • REST API*
9. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Magento 2 Integration Options • SOAP API • REST API • Web Hooks* • RabbitMQ*
10. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA RabbitMQ
11. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Messaging Queue
12. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Messages can be plaintext, process commands or any other type of information.
13. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Queue is a place where messages are held until a consumer connects and retrieves them.
14. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA In other words…
18. RabbitMQ:These Go to 11
19. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA RabbitMQ consistently sorts and delivers over one million messages per second http://bit.ly/2c303Wy
20. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Magento hands a message off to RabbitMQ to be handled asynchronously
21. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA RabbitMQ can be clustered as you scale up
22. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA RabbitMQ decouples your Magento code from your integrations using messages
23. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA To harness the power of RabbitMQ…
24. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA think different
25. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Bi-directional sync between an ERP/OMS and Magento
26. Old Way
27. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA When an order is placed, an event is fired and an observer handles sending the order data to the ERP
28. New Way
29. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Fire a message to RabbitMQ, move on
30. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA \Magento\Framework\MessageQueue \PublisherInterface $publisher $publisher->publish('creatuity.sent.oms', $this- >orderInterface);
31. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Topics • ‘creatuity.sent.oms’ is the topic • RabbitMQ can be configured to use topics to route messages to specific queues • Wildcard routing is possible - i.e., ‘creatuity.*’ would match all topics that start with ‘creatuity.’ • Topics allow the consumers connected to RabbitMQ to easily grab only the messages they need to process
33. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Messages • Can be an object, can be a string - can be anything you’d like • Allows the application on either end of the integration to use their native format • Keep it simple
34. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Route responses to your Magento code via communication.xml
35. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA <config xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Communication/etc/communication.xsd"> <topic name="creatuity.sent.oms" request="Magento\Sales\Api\Data\OrderInterface"> <handler name="creatuityoms.sent.oms.handler" type="Creatuity\Oms\Model\Oms" method="saveOmsNum" /> </topic> <topic name="creatuity.sent.magento" request="Magento\Sales\Api\Data\OrderInterface" > <handler name="creatuityoms.sent.magento.handler" type="Creatuity\Oms\Model\Oms" method="saveOmsNum" /> </topic> </config>
36. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA public function saveOmsNum(\Creatuity\Oms\Model\Oms $oms) { $oms->setData('MagentoOrderNum', $oms->getOrderNum()); $oms->setData('OmsOrderNum', $oms->getOmsNum()); $oms->save(); }
37. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Advantages of RabbitMQ • RabbitMQ can route messages to specific queues for you • Decouples your code from the API on the other side of the integration • There is a RabbitMQ client for every major language • Magento developers write Magento code, ERP developers write ERP code
38. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Gotchas
39. 2.0 2.1 2.2
40. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Magento 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 all contain major changes to message queues
42. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Magento Enterprise Edition Only
44. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA One more service to support in your web stack
45. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Magento Cloud Edition is a good option to offset this
46. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Homework
47. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Go try RabbitMQ out
48. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA The key to success with RabbitMQ & all of Magento 2…
49. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Stop trying to apply old patterns and techniques
50. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Keep up with the new features and architectural advances
51. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA RabbitMQ enables us to quickly integrate third-party systems in a new way
52. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA We still don’t know the upper bound of Magento 2’s scalability
53. @JoshuaSWarren #MageTitansUSA Go build something awesome!
