Class Client (1.4.3)

Client(**kwargs)

A subscriber client for Google Cloud Pub/Sub.

This creates an object that is capable of subscribing to messages. Generally, you can instantiate this client with no arguments, and you get sensible defaults.

Parameter

Name Description

kwargs

dict Example: .. code-block:: python from google.cloud import pubsub_v1 subscriber_client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient( # Optional client_options = { "api_endpoint": REGIONAL_ENDPOINT } )

Any additional arguments provided are sent as keyword keyword arguments to the underlying SubscriberClient. Generally you should not need to set additional keyword arguments. Optionally, regional endpoints can be set via client_options that takes a single key-value pair that defines the endpoint.

Inheritance

builtins.object > Client

Properties

api

The underlying gapic API client.

target

Return the target (where the API is).

Returns

Type	Description
str	The location of the API.

Methods

acknowledge

acknowledge(subscription, ack_ids, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Acknowledges the messages associated with the ack_ids in the AcknowledgeRequest. The Pub/Sub system can remove the relevant messages from the subscription.

Acknowledging a message whose ack deadline has expired may succeed, but such a message may be redelivered later. Acknowledging a message more than once will not result in an error.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

subscription = client.subscription_path('[PROJECT]', '[SUBSCRIPTION]')

TODO: Initialize ack_ids:

ack_ids = []

client.acknowledge(subscription, ack_ids)

Parameters

Name	Description
subscription	`str` Required. The subscription whose message is being acknowledged. Format is `projects/{project}/subscriptions/{sub}`.
ack_ids	`list[str]` Required. The acknowledgment ID for the messages being acknowledged that was returned by the Pub/Sub system in the `Pull` response. Must not be empty.
retry	`Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]` A retry object used to retry requests. If `None` is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	`Optional[float]` The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if `retry` is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	`Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]` Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

close

close()

Close the underlying channel to release socket resources.

After a channel has been closed, the client instance cannot be used anymore.

This method is idempotent.

create_snapshot

create_snapshot(name, subscription, labels=None, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Creates a snapshot from the requested subscription. Snapshots are used in Seek operations, which allow you to manage message acknowledgments in bulk. That is, you can set the acknowledgment state of messages in an existing subscription to the state captured by a snapshot. If the snapshot already exists, returns ALREADY_EXISTS. If the requested subscription doesn't exist, returns NOT_FOUND. If the backlog in the subscription is too old -- and the resulting snapshot would expire in less than 1 hour -- then FAILED_PRECONDITION is returned. See also the Snapshot.expire_time field. If the name is not provided in the request, the server will assign a random name for this snapshot on the same project as the subscription, conforming to the resource name format <https://cloud.google.com/pubsub/docs/admin#resource_names>__. The generated name is populated in the returned Snapshot object. Note that for REST API requests, you must specify a name in the request.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

name = client.snapshot_path('[PROJECT]', '[SNAPSHOT]') subscription = client.subscription_path('[PROJECT]', '[SUBSCRIPTION]')

response = client.create_snapshot(name, subscription)

Parameters

Name	Description
name	`str` Required. User-provided name for this snapshot. If the name is not provided in the request, the server will assign a random name for this snapshot on the same project as the subscription. Note that for REST API requests, you must specify a name. See the resource name rules. Format is `projects/{project}/snapshots/{snap}`.
subscription	`str` Required. The subscription whose backlog the snapshot retains. Specifically, the created snapshot is guaranteed to retain: (a) The existing backlog on the subscription. More precisely, this is defined as the messages in the subscription's backlog that are unacknowledged upon the successful completion of the `CreateSnapshot` request; as well as: (b) Any messages published to the subscription's topic following the successful completion of the CreateSnapshot request. Format is `projects/{project}/subscriptions/{sub}`.
labels	`dict[str -> str]` See Creating and managing labels.
retry	`Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]` A retry object used to retry requests. If `None` is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	`Optional[float]` The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if `retry` is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	`Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]` Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

create_subscription

create_subscription(name, topic, push_config=None, ack_deadline_seconds=None, retain_acked_messages=None, message_retention_duration=None, labels=None, enable_message_ordering=None, expiration_policy=None, dead_letter_policy=None, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Creates a subscription to a given topic. See the resource name rules. If the subscription already exists, returns ALREADY_EXISTS. If the corresponding topic doesn't exist, returns NOT_FOUND.

If the name is not provided in the request, the server will assign a random name for this subscription on the same project as the topic, conforming to the resource name format <https://cloud.google.com/pubsub/docs/admin#resource_names>__. The generated name is populated in the returned Subscription object. Note that for REST API requests, you must specify a name in the request.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

name = client.subscription_path('[PROJECT]', '[SUBSCRIPTION]') topic = client.topic_path('[PROJECT]', '[TOPIC]')

response = client.create_subscription(name, topic)

Parameters

Name	Description
name	`str` Required. The name of the subscription. It must have the format `"projects/{project}/subscriptions/{subscription}"`. `{subscription}` must start with a letter, and contain only letters (`[A-Za-z]`), numbers (`[0-9]`), dashes (`-`), underscores (`_`), periods (`.`), tildes (````), plus (+`) or percent signs (`%`). It must be between 3 and 255 characters in length, and it must not start with`"goog"``.
topic	`str` Required. The name of the topic from which this subscription is receiving messages. Format is `projects/{project}/topics/{topic}`. The value of this field will be `_deleted-topic_` if the topic has been deleted.
push_config	`Union[dict, PushConfig]` If push delivery is used with this subscription, this field is used to configure it. An empty `pushConfig` signifies that the subscriber will pull and ack messages using API methods. If a dict is provided, it must be of the same form as the protobuf message PushConfig
ack_deadline_seconds	`int` The approximate amount of time (on a best-effort basis) Pub/Sub waits for the subscriber to acknowledge receipt before resending the message. In the interval after the message is delivered and before it is acknowledged, it is considered to be outstanding. During that time period, the message will not be redelivered (on a best-effort basis). For pull subscriptions, this value is used as the initial value for the ack deadline. To override this value for a given message, call `ModifyAckDeadline` with the corresponding `ack_id` if using non-streaming pull or send the `ack_id` in a `StreamingModifyAckDeadlineRequest` if using streaming pull. The minimum custom deadline you can specify is 10 seconds. The maximum custom deadline you can specify is 600 seconds (10 minutes). If this parameter is 0, a default value of 10 seconds is used. For push delivery, this value is also used to set the request timeout for the call to the push endpoint. If the subscriber never acknowledges the message, the Pub/Sub system will eventually redeliver the message.
retain_acked_messages	`bool` Indicates whether to retain acknowledged messages. If true, then messages are not expunged from the subscription's backlog, even if they are acknowledged, until they fall out of the `message_retention_duration` window. This must be true if you would like to Seek to a timestamp.
message_retention_duration	`Union[dict, Duration]` How long to retain unacknowledged messages in the subscription's backlog, from the moment a message is published. If `retain_acked_messages` is true, then this also configures the retention of acknowledged messages, and thus configures how far back in time a `Seek` can be done. Defaults to 7 days. Cannot be more than 7 days or less than 10 minutes. If a dict is provided, it must be of the same form as the protobuf message Duration
labels	`dict[str -> str]` See Creating and managing labels.
enable_message_ordering	`bool` If true, messages published with the same `ordering_key` in `PubsubMessage` will be delivered to the subscribers in the order in which they are received by the Pub/Sub system. Otherwise, they may be delivered in any order. EXPERIMENTAL: This feature is part of a closed alpha release. This API might be changed in backward-incompatible ways and is not recommended for production use. It is not subject to any SLA or deprecation policy.
expiration_policy	`Union[dict, ExpirationPolicy]` A policy that specifies the conditions for this subscription's expiration. A subscription is considered active as long as any connected subscriber is successfully consuming messages from the subscription or is issuing operations on the subscription. If `expiration_policy` is not set, a default policy with `ttl` of 31 days will be used. The minimum allowed value for `expiration_policy.ttl` is 1 day. If a dict is provided, it must be of the same form as the protobuf message ExpirationPolicy
dead_letter_policy	`Union[dict, DeadLetterPolicy]` A policy that specifies the conditions for dead lettering messages in this subscription. If dead_letter_policy is not set, dead lettering is disabled. The Cloud Pub/Sub service account associated with this subscriptions's parent project (i.e., service-{project_number}@gcp-sa-pubsub.iam.gserviceaccount.com) must have permission to Acknowledge() messages on this subscription. EXPERIMENTAL: This feature is part of a closed alpha release. This API might be changed in backward-incompatible ways and is not recommended for production use. It is not subject to any SLA or deprecation policy. If a dict is provided, it must be of the same form as the protobuf message DeadLetterPolicy
retry	`Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]` A retry object used to retry requests. If `None` is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	`Optional[float]` The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if `retry` is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	`Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]` Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

delete_snapshot

delete_snapshot(snapshot, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Removes an existing snapshot. Snapshots are used in Seek operations, which allow you to manage message acknowledgments in bulk. That is, you can set the acknowledgment state of messages in an existing subscription to the state captured by a snapshot.

When the snapshot is deleted, all messages retained in the snapshot are immediately dropped. After a snapshot is deleted, a new one may be created with the same name, but the new one has no association with the old snapshot or its subscription, unless the same subscription is specified.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

snapshot = client.snapshot_path('[PROJECT]', '[SNAPSHOT]')

modify_ack_deadline

modify_ack_deadline(subscription, ack_ids, ack_deadline_seconds, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Modifies the ack deadline for a specific message. This method is useful to indicate that more time is needed to process a message by the subscriber, or to make the message available for redelivery if the processing was interrupted. Note that this does not modify the subscription-level ackDeadlineSeconds used for subsequent messages.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

subscription = client.subscription_path('[PROJECT]', '[SUBSCRIPTION]')

TODO: Initialize ack_ids:

ack_ids = []

TODO: Initialize ack_deadline_seconds:

ack_deadline_seconds = 0

client.modify_ack_deadline(subscription, ack_ids, ack_deadline_seconds)

Parameters

Name	Description
subscription	`str` Required. The name of the subscription. Format is `projects/{project}/subscriptions/{sub}`.
ack_ids	`list[str]` Required. List of acknowledgment IDs.
ack_deadline_seconds	`int` Required. The new ack deadline with respect to the time this request was sent to the Pub/Sub system. For example, if the value is 10, the new ack deadline will expire 10 seconds after the `ModifyAckDeadline` call was made. Specifying zero might immediately make the message available for delivery to another subscriber client. This typically results in an increase in the rate of message redeliveries (that is, duplicates). The minimum deadline you can specify is 0 seconds. The maximum deadline you can specify is 600 seconds (10 minutes).
retry	`Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]` A retry object used to retry requests. If `None` is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	`Optional[float]` The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if `retry` is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	`Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]` Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

modify_push_config

modify_push_config(subscription, push_config, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Modifies the PushConfig for a specified subscription.

This may be used to change a push subscription to a pull one (signified by an empty PushConfig) or vice versa, or change the endpoint URL and other attributes of a push subscription. Messages will accumulate for delivery continuously through the call regardless of changes to the PushConfig.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

subscription = client.subscription_path('[PROJECT]', '[SUBSCRIPTION]')

TODO: Initialize push_config:

push_config = {}

client.modify_push_config(subscription, push_config)

Parameters

Name	Description
subscription	`str` Required. The name of the subscription. Format is `projects/{project}/subscriptions/{sub}`.
push_config	`Union[dict, PushConfig]` Required. The push configuration for future deliveries. An empty `pushConfig` indicates that the Pub/Sub system should stop pushing messages from the given subscription and allow messages to be pulled and acknowledged - effectively pausing the subscription if `Pull` or `StreamingPull` is not called. If a dict is provided, it must be of the same form as the protobuf message PushConfig
retry	`Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]` A retry object used to retry requests. If `None` is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	`Optional[float]` The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if `retry` is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	`Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]` Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

project_path

project_path(project)

Return a fully-qualified project string.

pull

pull(subscription, max_messages, return_immediately=None, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Pulls messages from the server. The server may return UNAVAILABLE if there are too many concurrent pull requests pending for the given subscription.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

subscription = client.subscription_path('[PROJECT]', '[SUBSCRIPTION]')

TODO: Initialize max_messages:

max_messages = 0

response = client.pull(subscription, max_messages)

Parameters

Name	Description
subscription	`str` Required. The subscription from which messages should be pulled. Format is `projects/{project}/subscriptions/{sub}`.
max_messages	`int` Required. The maximum number of messages to return for this request. Must be a positive integer. The Pub/Sub system may return fewer than the number specified.
return_immediately	`bool` If this field set to true, the system will respond immediately even if it there are no messages available to return in the `Pull` response. Otherwise, the system may wait (for a bounded amount of time) until at least one message is available, rather than returning no messages.
retry	`Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]` A retry object used to retry requests. If `None` is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	`Optional[float]` The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if `retry` is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	`Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]` Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

seek

seek(subscription, time=None, snapshot=None, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Seeks an existing subscription to a point in time or to a given snapshot, whichever is provided in the request. Snapshots are used in Seek operations, which allow you to manage message acknowledgments in bulk. That is, you can set the acknowledgment state of messages in an existing subscription to the state captured by a snapshot. Note that both the subscription and the snapshot must be on the same topic.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

subscription = client.subscription_path('[PROJECT]', '[SUBSCRIPTION]')

response = client.seek(subscription)

Parameters

Name	Description
subscription	`str` Required. The subscription to affect.
time	`Union[dict, Timestamp]` The time to seek to. Messages retained in the subscription that were published before this time are marked as acknowledged, and messages retained in the subscription that were published after this time are marked as unacknowledged. Note that this operation affects only those messages retained in the subscription (configured by the combination of `message_retention_duration` and `retain_acked_messages`). For example, if `time` corresponds to a point before the message retention window (or to a point before the system's notion of the subscription creation time), only retained messages will be marked as unacknowledged, and already-expunged messages will not be restored. If a dict is provided, it must be of the same form as the protobuf message Timestamp
snapshot	`str` The snapshot to seek to. The snapshot's topic must be the same as that of the provided subscription. Format is `projects/{project}/snapshots/{snap}`.
retry	`Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]` A retry object used to retry requests. If `None` is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	`Optional[float]` The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if `retry` is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	`Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]` Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

set_iam_policy

set_iam_policy(resource, policy, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Sets the access control policy on the specified resource. Replaces any existing policy.

Can return Public Errors: NOT_FOUND, INVALID_ARGUMENT and PERMISSION_DENIED

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

resource = client.subscription_path('[PROJECT]', '[SUBSCRIPTION]')

TODO: Initialize policy:

policy = {}

response = client.set_iam_policy(resource, policy)

Parameters

Name	Description
resource	`str` REQUIRED: The resource for which the policy is being specified. See the operation documentation for the appropriate value for this field.
policy	`Union[dict, Policy]` REQUIRED: The complete policy to be applied to the `resource`. The size of the policy is limited to a few 10s of KB. An empty policy is a valid policy but certain Cloud Platform services (such as Projects) might reject them. If a dict is provided, it must be of the same form as the protobuf message Policy
retry	`Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]` A retry object used to retry requests. If `None` is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	`Optional[float]` The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if `retry` is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	`Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]` Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

snapshot_path

snapshot_path(project, snapshot)

Return a fully-qualified snapshot string.

streaming_pull

streaming_pull(requests, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Establishes a stream with the server, which sends messages down to the client. The client streams acknowledgements and ack deadline modifications back to the server. The server will close the stream and return the status on any error. The server may close the stream with status UNAVAILABLE to reassign server-side resources, in which case, the client should re-establish the stream. Flow control can be achieved by configuring the underlying RPC channel.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

subscription = client.subscription_path('[PROJECT]', '[SUBSCRIPTION]')

TODO: Initialize stream_ack_deadline_seconds:

stream_ack_deadline_seconds = 0 request = {'subscription': subscription, 'stream_ack_deadline_seconds': stream_ack_deadline_seconds}

requests = [request] for element in client.streaming_pull(requests): ... # process element ... pass

Parameters

Name	Description
requests	`iterator[dict\|google.cloud.pubsub_v1.proto.pubsub_pb2.StreamingPullRequest]` The input objects. If a dict is provided, it must be of the same form as the protobuf message StreamingPullRequest
retry	`Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]` A retry object used to retry requests. If `None` is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	`Optional[float]` The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if `retry` is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	`Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]` Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

subscribe(subscription, callback, flow_control=(), scheduler=None)

Asynchronously start receiving messages on a given subscription.

This method starts a background thread to begin pulling messages from a Pub/Sub subscription and scheduling them to be processed using the provided callback.

The callback will be called with an individual xref_Message. It is the responsibility of the callback to either call ack() or nack() on the message when it finished processing. If an exception occurs in the callback during processing, the exception is logged and the message is nack() ed.

The flow_control argument can be used to control the rate of at which messages are pulled. The settings are relatively conservative by default to prevent "message hoarding" - a situation where the client pulls a large number of messages but can not process them fast enough leading it to "starve" other clients of messages. Increasing these settings may lead to faster throughput for messages that do not take a long time to process.

This method starts the receiver in the background and returns a Future representing its execution. Waiting on the future (calling result()) will block forever or until a non-recoverable error is encountered (such as loss of network connectivity). Cancelling the future will signal the process to shutdown gracefully and exit.

.. note:: This uses Pub/Sub's streaming pull feature. This feature properties that may be surprising. Please take a look at https://cloud.google.com/pubsub/docs/pull#streamingpull for more details on how streaming pull behaves compared to the synchronous pull method.

Example:

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1
subscriber_client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()
# existing subscription
subscription = subscriber_client.subscription_path(
    'my-project-id', 'my-subscription')
def callback(message):
    print(message)
    message.ack()
future = subscriber_client.subscribe(
    subscription, callback)
try:
    future.result()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    future.cancel()

Parameters

Name	Description
subscription	`str` The name of the subscription. The subscription should have already been created (for example, by using `create_subscription`).
callback	`Callable[Message]` The callback function. This function receives the message as its only argument and will be called from a different thread/ process depending on the scheduling strategy.
flow_control	`FlowControl` The flow control settings. Use this to prevent situations where you are inundated with too many messages at once.
scheduler	`Scheduler` An optional scheduler to use when executing the callback. This controls how callbacks are executed concurrently.

subscription_path

subscription_path(project, subscription)

Return a fully-qualified subscription string.

test_iam_permissions

test_iam_permissions(resource, permissions, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Returns permissions that a caller has on the specified resource. If the resource does not exist, this will return an empty set of permissions, not a NOT_FOUND error.

Note: This operation is designed to be used for building permission-aware UIs and command-line tools, not for authorization checking. This operation may "fail open" without warning.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

resource = client.subscription_path('[PROJECT]', '[SUBSCRIPTION]')

TODO: Initialize permissions:

permissions = []

response = client.test_iam_permissions(resource, permissions)

Parameters

Name	Description
resource	`str` REQUIRED: The resource for which the policy detail is being requested. See the operation documentation for the appropriate value for this field.
permissions	`list[str]` The set of permissions to check for the `resource`. Permissions with wildcards (such as '' or 'storage.') are not allowed. For more information see `IAM Overview <https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/overview#permissions>`__.
retry	`Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]` A retry object used to retry requests. If `None` is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	`Optional[float]` The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if `retry` is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	`Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]` Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions

Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

topic_path

topic_path(project, topic)

Return a fully-qualified topic string.

update_snapshot

update_snapshot(snapshot, update_mask, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Updates an existing snapshot. Snapshots are used in Seek operations, which allow you to manage message acknowledgments in bulk. That is, you can set the acknowledgment state of messages in an existing subscription to the state captured by a snapshot.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import pubsub_v1

client = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()

seconds = 123456 expire_time = {'seconds': seconds} snapshot = {'expire_time': expire_time} paths_element = 'expire_time' paths = [paths_element] update_mask = {'paths': paths}

response = client.update_snapshot(snapshot, update_mask)

Parameters
