# Temporal REST API Gateway - Design Summary
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 Design Philosophy
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: Expose all Temporal operations through a **single unified `/workflow` REST endpoint** instead of requiring direct connections to multiple Temporal ports (7233, 7234, 6933).
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Principle**: Parameter-driven actions instead of path-based routing.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
OLD (Direct Temporal):
|
||||
- gRPC call to localhost:7233
|
||||
- Metrics call to localhost:6933:metrics
|
||||
- Multiple connection types
|
||||
|
||||
NEW (REST Gateway):
|
||||
- Single HTTP POST to https://api.riotpiao.com/workflow
|
||||
- Specify action and namespace in request body
|
||||
- All operations use same endpoint
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 📋 Unified Request Format
|
||||
|
||||
### Standard Structure
|
||||
|
||||
Every request follows this format:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "OPERATION_NAME",
|
||||
"namespace": "default",
|
||||
"payload": {
|
||||
"operation_specific_fields": "values"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Standard Response (Success)
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"success": true,
|
||||
"action": "OPERATION_NAME",
|
||||
"namespace": "default",
|
||||
"data": {...},
|
||||
"timestamp": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Standard Response (Error)
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"success": false,
|
||||
"action": "OPERATION_NAME",
|
||||
"error": "ERROR_CODE",
|
||||
"message": "Human readable message",
|
||||
"timestamp": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Benefits**:
|
||||
- ✅ Predictable structure
|
||||
- ✅ Easy for clients to parse
|
||||
- ✅ Consistent error handling
|
||||
- ✅ Enables middleware logging/monitoring
|
||||
- ✅ Language-agnostic
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 📊 Operations Taxonomy
|
||||
|
||||
### 24 Total Operations
|
||||
|
||||
**Workflow Operations** (10):
|
||||
1. START_WORKFLOW
|
||||
2. DESCRIBE_WORKFLOW
|
||||
3. LIST_WORKFLOWS
|
||||
4. GET_WORKFLOW_HISTORY
|
||||
5. TERMINATE_WORKFLOW
|
||||
6. CANCEL_WORKFLOW
|
||||
7. SIGNAL_WORKFLOW
|
||||
8. QUERY_WORKFLOW
|
||||
9. RESET_WORKFLOW
|
||||
10. UPDATE_WORKFLOW
|
||||
|
||||
**Activity Operations** (3):
|
||||
11. HEARTBEAT_ACTIVITY
|
||||
12. COMPLETE_ACTIVITY
|
||||
13. FAIL_ACTIVITY
|
||||
|
||||
**Namespace Operations** (5):
|
||||
14. LIST_NAMESPACES
|
||||
15. DESCRIBE_NAMESPACE
|
||||
16. CREATE_NAMESPACE
|
||||
17. UPDATE_NAMESPACE
|
||||
18. DELETE_NAMESPACE
|
||||
|
||||
**Search Attributes** (2):
|
||||
19. LIST_SEARCH_ATTRIBUTES
|
||||
20. ADD_SEARCH_ATTRIBUTES
|
||||
|
||||
**Task Queue Monitoring** (1):
|
||||
21. LIST_TASK_QUEUES ⭐ (See TaskQueue recommendation below)
|
||||
|
||||
**Cluster Operations** (3):
|
||||
22. GET_CLUSTER_INFO
|
||||
23. LIST_CLUSTER_MEMBERS
|
||||
24. GET_SYSTEM_INFO
|
||||
|
||||
**Special**:
|
||||
- GET_METRICS (via POST or direct HTTP GET)
|
||||
- Health checks (separate endpoint)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🚀 Key Design Decisions
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Single POST Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Use POST `/workflow` for all CRUD operations
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale**:
|
||||
- REST is primarily GET (read), but Temporal has mixed operations
|
||||
- POST allows request body with rich parameters
|
||||
- Allows for future query DSL if needed
|
||||
- Cleaner than /workflow/{operation} pattern
|
||||
|
||||
**Trade-off**: Not 100% RESTful (REST purists prefer /resource/id/action), but more practical
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Action-Based Routing
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Use `"action"` field instead of path routing
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
// ✅ GOOD (chosen)
|
||||
POST /workflow
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "START_WORKFLOW",
|
||||
"payload": {...}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// ❌ NOT CHOSEN
|
||||
POST /workflow/start
|
||||
POST /workflows/executions/start
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale**:
|
||||
- Single endpoint for all operations
|
||||
- Easier middleware/auth integration
|
||||
- Cleaner error handling
|
||||
- Future-proof for new operations
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Namespace as First-Class Field
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Include `namespace` in every request (not in URL path)
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
// ✅ GOOD (chosen)
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "...",
|
||||
"namespace": "production",
|
||||
"payload": {...}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// ❌ NOT CHOSEN
|
||||
POST /workflow/production/start
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale**:
|
||||
- Namespace is runtime parameter, not structural
|
||||
- Allows easy namespace switching in same request
|
||||
- Consistent with Temporal SDK patterns
|
||||
- Simplifies multi-tenant scenarios
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Pagination via Token
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Use opaque `next_page_token` for pagination (not offset)
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "LIST_WORKFLOWS",
|
||||
"payload": {
|
||||
"page_size": 50,
|
||||
"next_page_token": "opaque_token_from_previous"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale**:
|
||||
- Matches Temporal's native pagination
|
||||
- Handles distributed state better
|
||||
- Prevents offset consistency issues
|
||||
- More efficient for large datasets
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Filters as Map, Not DSL
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Use structured filters object (not string filter syntax)
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
// ✅ GOOD (chosen)
|
||||
{
|
||||
"filters": {
|
||||
"status": "RUNNING",
|
||||
"workflow_type": "OrderProcessing",
|
||||
"start_time_from": "2024-01-10T00:00:00Z"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// ❌ NOT CHOSEN
|
||||
{
|
||||
"filter": "ExecutionStatus = RUNNING AND WorkflowType = 'OrderProcessing'"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale**:
|
||||
- Type safety (can validate fields)
|
||||
- Better IDE support
|
||||
- Easier to build dynamically
|
||||
- Prevents filter injection attacks
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 💡 TaskQueue Management Recommendation
|
||||
|
||||
### The Problem
|
||||
|
||||
TaskQueues in Temporal are:
|
||||
- Created automatically when workers connect
|
||||
- Managed by the cluster
|
||||
- Hard to monitor without direct cluster access
|
||||
- Critical for worker load distribution
|
||||
|
||||
### The Options
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option A: Full CRUD (NOT RECOMMENDED)
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "CREATE_TASK_QUEUE",
|
||||
"payload": {"name": "custom_queue"}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
**Problems**: Can't actually create; only workers can; confuses users
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option B: Ignore Completely (NOT RECOMMENDED)
|
||||
**Problems**: No visibility into queue health; silent failures if queues break
|
||||
|
||||
#### **Option C: Read-Only Monitor (RECOMMENDED) ⭐**
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "LIST_TASK_QUEUES",
|
||||
"namespace": "default",
|
||||
"payload": {
|
||||
"queue_type": "WORKFLOW"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Response**:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"data": {
|
||||
"queues": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"name": "main_queue",
|
||||
"type": "WORKFLOW",
|
||||
"reader_count": 3,
|
||||
"poison_pill_count": 0,
|
||||
"ack_level": 1050,
|
||||
"last_activity": "2024-01-15T10:32:00Z"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### TaskQueue Recommendation Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
| Aspect | Option A (CRUD) | Option B (Ignore) | **Option C (Monitor)** |
|
||||
|--------|---|---|---|
|
||||
| **Complexity** | High | Low | Medium |
|
||||
| **User Confusion** | ❌ High | ✅ None | ✅ Low |
|
||||
| **Operational Visibility** | ✅ Full | ❌ None | ✅ Good |
|
||||
| **Can Debug Issues** | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | ✅ Yes |
|
||||
| **Monitoring/Alerting** | ✅ Can do | ❌ No | ✅ Can do |
|
||||
| **Consistent with Temporal** | ❌ No | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes |
|
||||
| **Works with Worker Lifecycle** | ❌ Conflicts | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes |
|
||||
|
||||
**WINNER**: **Option C - Read-Only Monitor** ⭐
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 Pros & Cons of Option C (TaskQueue Read-Only Monitor)
|
||||
|
||||
### Pros ✅
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Operational Visibility**
|
||||
- Know which queues are active
|
||||
- Monitor reader count (detect stuck workers)
|
||||
- Track poison pills (detect failing tasks)
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Debugging**
|
||||
- Identify if queue is the problem
|
||||
- Verify workers are connected
|
||||
- Check ack_level for progress
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Monitoring & Alerting**
|
||||
- Alert if reader_count drops to 0
|
||||
- Alert if poison_pill_count increases
|
||||
- Dashboard metrics
|
||||
|
||||
4. **No Conflicts**
|
||||
- Doesn't interfere with worker lifecycle
|
||||
- Matches Temporal semantics
|
||||
- Read-only (safe)
|
||||
|
||||
5. **API Completeness**
|
||||
- Exposes all Temporal concepts
|
||||
- Users can see everything through REST API
|
||||
- No "magic" hidden state
|
||||
|
||||
6. **Production Support**
|
||||
- Support teams can diagnose issues
|
||||
- Self-service monitoring
|
||||
- Reduces support tickets
|
||||
|
||||
### Cons ❌
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Limited Utility**
|
||||
- Can't create/delete queues (workers do this)
|
||||
- Can't configure queue behavior
|
||||
- Read-only doesn't feel "complete"
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Not Needed for Normal Ops**
|
||||
- Most users just start workflows
|
||||
- Workers auto-create queues
|
||||
- Queue monitoring rarely needed
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Adds Complexity**
|
||||
- One more operation to document
|
||||
- Need to explain read-only nature
|
||||
- More API surface area
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Requires Metrics Knowledge**
|
||||
- Users need to understand what fields mean
|
||||
- poison_pill_count, ack_level aren't intuitive
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 📈 Performance Implications
|
||||
|
||||
### gRPC Over HTTP/2
|
||||
|
||||
- Temporal's native protocol is gRPC
|
||||
- HTTP/2 is built for gRPC
|
||||
- No additional overhead vs direct gRPC
|
||||
- Slightly more latency: ~1-5ms extra
|
||||
|
||||
### Metrics Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
- Prometheus scrapes from `:6933`
|
||||
- Gateway acts as reverse proxy
|
||||
- No aggregation needed
|
||||
- Direct forwarding: minimal latency
|
||||
|
||||
### Connection Pooling
|
||||
|
||||
- Maintain persistent gRPC connections
|
||||
- Reuse connections for multiple requests
|
||||
- Connection pooling inside gateway
|
||||

## 🎓 Usage Example
|
||||
|
||||
### Before (Direct Temporal)
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Multiple imports needed
|
||||
import grpc
|
||||
from temporal.api.workflowservice import v1 as wf_service
|
||||
from temporal.api.operatorservice import v1 as op_service
|
||||
|
||||
# Multiple clients needed
|
||||
workflow_channel = grpc.aio.secure_channel(
|
||||
"localhost:7233",
|
||||
grpc.ssl_channel_credentials()
|
||||
)
|
||||
wf_client = wf_service.WorkflowServiceStub(workflow_channel)
|
||||
|
||||
metrics_response = requests.get("http://localhost:6933/metrics")
|
||||
|
||||
# Different API styles
|
||||
await wf_client.StartWorkflowExecution(request)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### After (REST Gateway)
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import requests
|
||||
|
||||
# Single endpoint, single client
|
||||
api = "https://api.riotpiao.com/workflow"
|
||||
|
||||
# Start workflow
|
||||
response = requests.post(api, json={
|
||||
"action": "START_WORKFLOW",
|
||||
"namespace": "default",
|
||||
"payload": {
|
||||
"workflow_id": "wf_001",
|
||||
"workflow_type": "ProcessOrder",
|
||||
"task_queue": "orders",
|
||||
"input": {"order_id": "123"}
|
||||
}
|
||||
})
|
||||
|
||||
# Get metrics
|
||||
metrics = requests.get("https://api.riotpiao.com/workflow/metrics")
|
||||
|
||||
# All through same client!
|
||||
```
