Streams Protocol (Port 5552)

Publisher Implementation (crypto-scout-client)

public final class AmqpPublisher extends AbstractReactive implements ReactiveService {
    private volatile Environment environment;
    private volatile Producer bybitStream;
    private volatile Producer cryptoScoutStream;

    @Override
    public Promise<Void> start() {
        return Promise.ofBlocking(executor, () -> {
            environment = Environment.builder()
                .host("crypto-scout-mq")
                .port(5552)
                .username("crypto_scout_mq")
                .password("password")
                .build();

            bybitStream = environment.producerBuilder()
                .name("bybit-stream")
                .stream("bybit-stream")
                .build();

            cryptoScoutStream = environment.producerBuilder()
                .name("crypto-scout-stream")
                .stream("crypto-scout-stream")
                .build();
        });
    }

    public Promise<Void> publish(final Payload<Map<String, Object>> payload) {
        final var producer = getProducer(payload.getProvider());
        final var settablePromise = new SettablePromise<Void>();

        final var message = producer.messageBuilder()
            .addData(JsonUtils.object2Bytes(payload))
            .build();

        producer.send(message, status -> {
            if (status.isConfirmed()) {
                settablePromise.set(null);
            } else {
                settablePromise.setException(
                    new IllegalStateException("Publish not confirmed: " + status)
                );
            }
        });

        return settablePromise;
    }

    private Producer getProducer(final Provider provider) {
        return switch (provider) {
            case BYBIT -> bybitStream;
            case CMC -> cryptoScoutStream;
        };
    }
}

Consumer Implementation with Offset Management (crypto-scout-collector)

public final class StreamService extends AbstractReactive implements ReactiveService {
    private volatile Environment environment;
    private volatile Consumer bybitConsumer;
    private volatile Consumer cryptoScoutConsumer;

    @Override
    public Promise<Void> start() {
        return Promise.ofBlocking(executor, () -> {
            environment = AmqpConfig.getEnvironment();

            bybitConsumer = environment.consumerBuilder()
                .stream("bybit-stream")
                .noTrackingStrategy()
                .subscriptionListener(this::updateOffset)
                .messageHandler(this::handleBybitMessage)
                .build();

            cryptoScoutConsumer = environment.consumerBuilder()
                .stream("crypto-scout-stream")
                .noTrackingStrategy()
                .subscriptionListener(this::updateOffset)
                .messageHandler(this::handleCryptoScoutMessage)
                .build();
        });
    }

    private void updateOffset(final SubscriptionContext context) {
        final var streamName = context.stream();
        final var savedOffset = offsetRepository.getOffset(streamName);
        if (savedOffset.isPresent()) {
            context.offsetSpecification(
                OffsetSpecification.offset(savedOffset.getAsLong() + 1)
            );
        } else {
            context.offsetSpecification(OffsetSpecification.first());
        }
    }

    private void handleBybitMessage(final Context context, final Message message) {
        final var payload = JsonUtils.bytes2Object(
            message.getBodyAsBinary(),
            Payload.class
        );
        bybitStreamService.save(payload, context.offset());
    }

    private void handleCryptoScoutMessage(final Context context, final Message message) {
        final var payload = JsonUtils.bytes2Object(
            message.getBodyAsBinary(),
            Payload.class
        );
        cryptoScoutService.save(payload, context.offset());
    }
}

Stream Transformer Pattern (crypto-scout-analyst)

public final class AnalystTransformer extends AbstractStreamTransformer<StreamPayload, StreamPayload> {
    private final AnalystEngine engine;

    @Override
    protected StreamDataAcceptor<StreamPayload> onResumed(final StreamDataAcceptor<StreamPayload> output) {
        return in -> {
            try {
                final var payload = in.payload();
                final var result = engine.analyze(payload);
                output.accept(new StreamPayload(in.stream(), in.offset(), result));
            } catch (final Exception ex) {
                LOGGER.error("Analysis failed", ex);
                output.accept(new StreamPayload(in.stream(), in.offset(), null));
            }
        };
    }
}

AMQP Protocol (Port 5672)

Consumer Implementation (crypto-scout-collector)

public final class AmqpConsumer extends AbstractReactive implements ReactiveService {
    private volatile Connection connection;
    private volatile Channel channel;

    @Override
    public Promise<Void> start() {
        return Promise.ofBlocking(executor, () -> {
            final var factory = new ConnectionFactory();
            factory.setHost("crypto-scout-mq");
            factory.setPort(5672);
            factory.setUsername("crypto_scout_mq");
            factory.setPassword("password");

            connection = factory.newConnection();
            channel = connection.createChannel();

            channel.basicQos(1);  // Fair dispatch

            final var consumer = new DefaultConsumer(channel) {
                @Override
                public void handleDelivery(
                    String consumerTag,
                    Envelope envelope,
                    AMQP.BasicProperties properties,
                    byte[] body
                ) throws IOException {
                    try {
                        final var message = JsonUtils.bytes2Object(body, Map.class);
                        messageHandler.accept(message);
                        channel.basicAck(envelope.getDeliveryTag(), false);
                    } catch (Exception e) {
                        channel.basicNack(envelope.getDeliveryTag(), false, true);
                    }
                }
            };

            channel.basicConsume("collector-queue", false, consumer);
        });
    }

    @Override
    public Promise<Void> stop() {
        return Promise.ofBlocking(executor, () -> {
            if (channel != null && channel.isOpen()) {
                channel.close();
            }
            if (connection != null && connection.isOpen()) {
                connection.close();
            }
        });
    }
}

Publisher Implementation (crypto-scout-collector)

public final class AmqpPublisher extends AbstractReactive implements ReactiveService {
    private volatile Connection connection;
    private volatile Channel channel;

    public Promise<Void> publish(final Map<String, Object> message,
                                  final String routingKey) {
        return Promise.ofBlocking(executor, () -> {
            final var bytes = JsonUtils.object2Bytes(message);
            final var props = new AMQP.BasicProperties.Builder()
                .contentType("application/json")
                .deliveryMode(2)  // Persistent
                .build();

            channel.basicPublish(
                "crypto-scout-exchange",
                routingKey,
                props,
                bytes
            );
        });
    }
}

Payload Structure

Standard Payload Format (jcryptolib)

public class Payload<T> {
    private final Provider provider;  // BYBIT, CMC
    private final Source source;      // PMST, PML, API, etc.
    private final Event event;        // TICKERS, KLINE, TRADE, etc.
    private final long timestamp;
    private final String symbol;      // BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT
    private final T data;
}

// Example JSON
{
    "provider": "BYBIT",
    "source": "PMST",
    "event": "TICKERS",
    "timestamp": 1704067200000,
    "symbol": "BTCUSDT",
    "data": {
        "lastPrice": "42000.50",
        "highPrice24h": "43500.00",
        "lowPrice24h": "41000.00"
    }
}

Provider Enum

public enum Provider {
    BYBIT,    // Bybit exchange data
    CMC       // CoinMarketCap data
}

Source Enum

public enum Source {
    PMST,     // Bybit public spot tickers
    PML,      // Bybit public linear tickers
    API,      // REST API data
    // ... etc
}

Configuration

Environment Variables

Variable	Default	Description
AMQP_RABBITMQ_HOST	localhost	RabbitMQ host
AMQP_RABBITMQ_PORT	5672	AMQP port
AMQP_STREAM_PORT	5552	Streams port
AMQP_RABBITMQ_USERNAME	crypto_scout_mq	Username
AMQP_RABBITMQ_PASSWORD	-	Password
AMQP_BYBIT_STREAM	bybit-stream	Bybit stream name
AMQP_CRYPTO_SCOUT_STREAM	crypto-scout-stream	CMC stream name

Java Configuration Pattern

final static class AmqpConfig {
    static final String AMQP_RABBITMQ_HOST = System.getProperty("amqp.rabbitmq.host", "localhost");
    static final int AMQP_RABBITMQ_PORT = Integer.parseInt(System.getProperty("amqp.rabbitmq.port", "5672"));
    static final int AMQP_STREAM_PORT = Integer.parseInt(System.getProperty("amqp.stream.port", "5552"));
    static final String AMQP_RABBITMQ_USERNAME = System.getProperty("amqp.rabbitmq.username", "crypto_scout_mq");
    static final String AMQP_RABBITMQ_PASSWORD = System.getProperty("amqp.rabbitmq.password", "");
}

Stream Retention Policy (definitions.json)

{
    "vhosts": [
        {
            "name": "/",
            "policies": [
                {
                    "pattern": ".*-stream$",
                    "definition": {
                        "max-length-bytes": 2000000000,
                        "max-age": "1D",
                        "stream-max-segment-size-bytes": 100000000
                    }
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Error Handling

Connection Recovery

private Promise<Void> startWithRetry() {
    return Promise.ofBlocking(executor, () -> {
        int attempts = 0;
        while (attempts < MAX_RETRIES) {
            try {
                connect();
                return;
            } catch (Exception e) {
                attempts++;
                if (attempts >= MAX_RETRIES) {
                    throw new IllegalStateException("Failed to connect after retries", e);
                }
                Thread.sleep(RETRY_DELAY_MS * attempts);
            }
        }
    });
}

Publisher Confirm Timeout

producer.send(message, status -> {
    reactor.scheduleAfter(Duration.ofSeconds(30), () -> {
        if (!settablePromise.isComplete()) {
            settablePromise.setException(
                new IllegalStateException("Publish confirmation timeout")
            );
        }
    });

    if (status.isConfirmed()) {
        settablePromise.set(null);
    } else {
        settablePromise.setException(
            new IllegalStateException("Publish not confirmed: " + status)
        );
    }
});

Offset Management Error Handling

private void handleMessage(final Context context, final Message message) {
    try {
        final var payload = parsePayload(message);
        service.save(payload, context.offset());
    } catch (final Exception e) {
        LOGGER.error("Failed to process message at offset {}", context.offset(), e);
        // Don't ack - will retry on restart
        // Or send to DLX based on error type
    }
}

Monitoring

Health Checks

public boolean isReady() {
    return environment != null &&
           bybitStream != null &&
           cryptoScoutStream != null;
}

// HTTP endpoint
curl http://localhost:8081/health
# Returns: ok (200) or not-ready (503)

Stream Statistics

// Check stream info
podman exec crypto-scout-mq rabbitmq-streams stream_info bybit-stream

# Management UI
curl -u crypto_scout_mq:password http://localhost:15672/api/queues

Management UI

• URL: http://localhost:15672
• Monitor streams, queues, connections
• View message rates and consumer counts

Test Utilities (crypto-scout-test)

Stream Test Publisher

final var publisher = StreamTestPublisher.create("bybit-stream");
publisher.start().get();
publisher.publish(payload);

Stream Test Consumer

final var consumer = StreamTestConsumer.create("bybit-stream", handler);
consumer.start().get();

AMQP Test Utilities

final var amqpPublisher = AmqpTestPublisher.create();
amqpPublisher.publish(message, "collector-queue");

final var amqpConsumer = AmqpTestConsumer.create("collector-queue", handler);
