I have an example where I want to use Flux.generate because I don't want to make the expensive blocking call unless / until a subscriber is asking for it. Specifically, I am calling Elasticsearch multiple times (effectively doing paging) until there are no more hits. I have implemented this using standard blocking calls in a Iterator<SearchResponse>
. Where each call to the generate lambda blocks and the flux is then finished with .subscribeOn(Schedulers.boundedElastic())
. However, I would like to use Spring's ReactiveElasticsearchClient
that returns a Mono<SearchResponse>
but still want to do it one at a time.
Here is the previous code using blocking:
public Iterator<SearchResponse> createDeepQueryIterator(@NonNull PITSearchInput input){
return new PointInTimeIterator(elasticClient, input);
}
public Flux<SearchResponse> createDeepQueryFlux(@NonNull PITSearchInput input){
return Flux.<SearchResponse, PointInTimeIterator>generate(
() -> new PointInTimeIterator(elasticClient, input),
(deepQueryIterator, sink) -> {
if (deepQueryIterator.hasNext()) {
sink.next(deepQueryIterator.next());
}else{
sink.complete();
}
return deepQueryIterator;
},
(deepQueryIterator) -> deepQueryIterator.shutdown())
.subscribeOn(Schedulers.boundedElastic());
}
The above works well in that it waits to make the next call to ES until a (the) subscriber is ready for the next block of data.
In the below I am trying to use Spring's ReactiveElasticsearchClient
but the issue is that multiple calls are make to ES before subscriber has processed the first.
public Flux<SearchResponse> createDeepQuery(PointInTimeIteratorFactory.PITSearchInput input) {
log.info("Creating flux");
AtomicReference<PitId> pitId = new AtomicReference<>();
AtomicInteger count = new AtomicInteger();
Mono<PitId> pitIdMono =
Mono.fromCallable(
() -> {
pitId.set(createPIT(input));
return pitId.get();
})
.subscribeOn(Schedulers.boundedElastic());
Mono<SearchResponse> searchResponseMono =
pitIdMono.flatMap(
p -> {
log.info("Calling search");
return reactiveElasticsearchClient.searchForResponse(createSearchRequestFrom(p, input));
});
Flux<SearchResponse> expand =
searchResponseMono
.expand(
(searchResponse -> {
int hitCount = searchResponse.getHits().getHits().length;
count.addAndGet(hitCount);
log.info("Previous returned {} hits totaling {}", hitCount, count.get());
if (count.get() > input.getMaxTotalSize()
|| hitCount < input.getMaxSizePerQuery()){
log.info("Returning empty");
return Mono.empty();
}
log.info("Calling search");
pitId.set(new PitId(searchResponse.pointInTimeId()));
return reactiveElasticsearchClient.searchForResponse(
createSearchRequestFrom(searchResponse, input));
}))
.doFinally(
p -> {
deletePIT(pitId.get());
});
return expand;
}
So the question is not to use the reactive client's ability to return a Mono<SearchResponse>
in a Flux
but only doing so one-at-a-time as needed by the subscriber.
The below is the logging from the Flux -> Mono method above with the PitTest
logging coming from the test onNext() of the flux.

CodePudding user response:
delayElements
switches to parallel scheduler and delays each emitted element by 2 seconds. This is why sort values are printed afterward.
