Pub/Sub triggered service

So far, we deployed HTTP triggered public services. However, this is not the only way to trigger Cloud Run services. In this tutorial, let's see how a Cloud Pub/Sub message can trigger an internal service. You can read more about this in Cloud Run docs.

Cloud Run with Pub/Sub

Create a 'Event Display' service

Take a look at the service we already created in event-display folder. It simply logs out the HTTP request body. We'll use it to display the received messages.

Build the container

In folder where Dockerfile resides, build the container using Cloud Build and push it to Container Registry:

PROJECT_ID=$(gcloud config get-value project)
SERVICE_NAME=event-display

gcloud builds submit \
  --tag gcr.io/$PROJECT_ID/$SERVICE_NAME

Deploy to Cloud Run

Note that we're deploying with no-allow-unauthenticated flag. We only want Pub/Sub to trigger the service:

REGION=us-central1

gcloud run deploy $SERVICE_NAME \
  --image gcr.io/$PROJECT_ID/event-display \
  --no-allow-unauthenticated \
  --platform managed \
  --region $REGION

Setup Pub/Sub to trigger Cloud Run

Create a Pub/Sub topic:

TOPIC_NAME=cloudrun-pubsub

gcloud pubsub topics create $TOPIC_NAME

Create a service account:

SERVICE_ACCOUNT=$TOPIC_NAME-sa

gcloud iam service-accounts create $SERVICE_ACCOUNT \
   --display-name "Cloud Run Pub/Sub Service Account"

Give service account permission to invoke the Cloud Run service:

gcloud run services add-iam-policy-binding $SERVICE_NAME \
   --member=serviceAccount:$SERVICE_ACCOUNT@$PROJECT_ID.iam.gserviceaccount.com \
   --role=roles/run.invoker \
   --platform managed

Enable your project to create Cloud Pub/Sub authentication tokens:

gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding $PROJECT_ID \
     --member=serviceAccount:service-$PROJECT_NUMBER@gcp-sa-pubsub.iam.gserviceaccount.com \
     --role=roles/iam.serviceAccountTokenCreator

Create a Cloud Pub/Sub subscription with the service account:

SERVICE_URL=$(gcloud run services describe $SERVICE_NAME --region $REGION --format 'value(status.url)')

gcloud pubsub subscriptions create $TOPIC_NAME-subscription --topic $TOPIC_NAME \
   --push-endpoint=$SERVICE_URL \
   --push-auth-service-account=$SERVICE_ACCOUNT@$PROJECT_ID.iam.gserviceaccount.com

Test the service

You can test the service by sending a message to the queue:

gcloud pubsub topics publish $TOPIC_NAME --message "Hello World"

If you check the logs of the service in Cloud Run console, you should see the event:

Event Display received event: {"message":{"data":"SGVsbG8gV29ybGQ=","messageId":"849662793093263","message_id":"849662793093263","publishTime":"2019-11-12T16:12:51.296Z","publish_time":"2019-11-12T16:12:51.296Z"},"subscription":"projects/knative-atamel/subscriptions/cloudrun-topic-subscription"}

The message is base64 encoded under data:

echo SGVsbG8gV29ybGQ= | base64 -D

Hello World
