escapecode a80699b6dd feat: add an opt-in NATS JetStream publish path for the notify and audit targets (#4634)
feat(targets): add an opt-in NATS JetStream publish path for the notify and audit targets

The NATS notify and audit targets publish through NATS Core, which returns
before the server has durably accepted the message. A broker restart or a
connection drop between the publish and the flush loses the event, even though
the send queue has already cleared it, and no acknowledgement gates that clear.

An opt-in JetStream publish path clears a queued event only after the server
returns a durable PublishAck, so delivery is at-least-once across a broker
restart or a reconnect. It applies to both the notify and audit NATS targets, is
off by default, and is byte-identical to the NATS Core path when disabled.

The path includes durable store-and-forward, a stable dedup id sent as the
Nats-Msg-Id header so a replayed event is collapsed by the stream duplicate
window, pre-flight stream validation, and a bounded failed-events store for
terminally-failed and retry-exhausted events. Three configuration keys per
target select it: JETSTREAM_ENABLE, JETSTREAM_STREAM_NAME, and
JETSTREAM_ACK_TIMEOUT_SECS, under the RUSTFS_NOTIFY_NATS_ and RUSTFS_AUDIT_NATS_
prefixes.

The on-disk batch filename separator changes from colon to underscore so
batch names are valid on Windows filesystems, with transparent read-back
of files written under the previous separator. The migration affects the
shared queue store for every target type and lands with this feature
because the store gains its first Windows-exercised paths here.

rustfs-audit

Audit Target Management System for RustFS

rustfs-audit is a comprehensive audit logging system designed for RustFS. It provides multi-target fan-out, hot reload capabilities, and rich observability features for distributed storage and event-driven systems.

Features

  • Multi-Target Fan-Out: Dispatch audit logs to multiple targets (e.g., Webhook, MQTT) concurrently.
  • Hot Reload: Dynamically reload configuration and update targets without downtime.
  • Observability: Collect metrics such as EPS (Events Per Second), average latency, error rate, and target success rate.
  • Performance Validation: Validate system performance against requirements and receive optimization recommendations.
  • Extensible Registry: Manage audit targets with add, remove, enable, disable, and upsert operations.
  • Global Singleton: Easy-to-use global audit system and logger.
  • Async & Thread-Safe: Built on Tokio and Rust async primitives for high concurrency.

Getting Started

Add Dependency

Add to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
rustfs-audit = "0.1"

Basic Usage

Initialize and Start Audit System

use rustfs_audit::{start_audit_system, AuditLogger};
use rustfs_config::server_config::Config;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let config = Config::load("path/to/config.toml").await.unwrap();
    start_audit_system(config).await.unwrap();
}

Log an Audit Entry

use rustfs_audit::{AuditEntry, AuditLogger, ApiDetails};
use chrono::Utc;
use rustfs_targets::EventName;

let entry = AuditEntry::new(
"v1".to_string(),
Some("deployment-123".to_string()),
Some("siteA".to_string()),
Utc::now(),
EventName::ObjectCreatedPut,
Some("type".to_string()),
"trigger".to_string(),
ApiDetails::default (),
);

AuditLogger::log(entry).await;

Observability & Metrics

use rustfs_audit::{get_metrics_report, validate_performance};

let report = get_metrics_report().await;
println!("{}", report.format());

let validation = validate_performance().await;
println!("{}", validation.format());

Configuration

Targets are configured via TOML files and environment variables. Supported target types:

  • Webhook
  • MQTT

Environment variables override file configuration. See docs.rs/rustfs-audit for details.

API Overview

  • AuditSystem: Main system for managing targets and dispatching logs.
  • AuditRegistry: Registry for audit targets.
  • AuditEntry: Audit log entry structure.
  • ApiDetails: API call details for audit logs.
  • AuditLogger: Global logger singleton.
  • AuditMetrics, AuditMetricsReport: Metrics and reporting.
  • PerformanceValidation: Performance validation and recommendations.

Observability

  • Metrics: EPS, average latency, error rate, target success rate, processed/failed events, config reloads, system starts.
  • Validation: Checks if EPS ≥ 3000, latency ≤ 30ms, error rate ≤ 1%. Provides actionable recommendations.
