Module: ActiveJob::Temporal::Client

Defined in:
lib/activejob/temporal/client.rb

Overview

Note:

TLS Configuration Precedence ‘config.tls` takes precedence, followed by configured certificate file paths, then legacy environment variables.

Note:

Environment Variables

  • TEMPORAL_TLS_CERT: TLS certificate (PEM format, full content)

  • TEMPORAL_TLS_KEY: TLS private key (PEM format, full content)

  • TEMPORAL_TLS_SERVER_NAME: TLS server name for verification

Builds Temporal client connections.

This module encapsulates the logic for connecting to a Temporal cluster with optional TLS configuration. TLS options can be provided via configuration attributes or environment variables.

Examples:

Basic connection

config = ActiveJob::Temporal.config
client = Client.build(config)

TLS via environment variables

ENV["TEMPORAL_TLS_CERT"] = File.read("cert.pem")
ENV["TEMPORAL_TLS_KEY"] = File.read("key.pem")
ENV["TEMPORAL_TLS_SERVER_NAME"] = "temporal.example.com"
client = Client.build(config)

TLS via configuration object

ActiveJob::Temporal.configure do |config|
  config.tls = {
    client_cert: File.read("cert.pem"),
    client_private_key: File.read("key.pem"),
    domain: "temporal.example.com"
  }
end
client = ActiveJob::Temporal.client

Class Method Details

.build(configuration) ⇒ Temporalio::Client

Builds and connects a Temporal client.

Creates a new Temporalio::Client instance connected to the configured Temporal cluster. TLS options are automatically included if present in configuration or environment variables.

Examples:

Basic usage

config = ActiveJob::Temporal::Configuration.new
config.target = "temporal.example.com:7233"
config.namespace = "production"
client = Client.build(config)

With TLS via environment variables

ENV["TEMPORAL_TLS_CERT"] = File.read("client.pem")
ENV["TEMPORAL_TLS_KEY"] = File.read("client-key.pem")
ENV["TEMPORAL_TLS_SERVER_NAME"] = "temporal.prod.example.com"
client = Client.build(config)
# Client will connect using mutual TLS

Handling connection failures

begin
  client = Client.build(config)
rescue ActiveJob::Temporal::Error => e
  Rails.logger.fatal("Cannot connect to Temporal: #{e.message}")
  # Fall back to different adapter or alert operations team
end

Parameters:

  • configuration (Configuration) —

    Gem configuration object with target/namespace

Returns:

  • (Temporalio::Client) —

    Connected Temporal client

Raises:

  • (ActiveJob::Temporal::Error) —

    if connection fails (includes target, namespace, and error message)

  • (OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError) —

    if TLS certificate validation fails

  • (OpenSSL::PKey::RSAError) —

    if TLS private key is invalid

  • (OpenSSL::X509::CertificateError) —

    if TLS certificate is malformed

  • (SocketError) —

    if target hostname cannot be resolved

  • (Errno::ECONNREFUSED) —

    if target port is not accepting connections

  • (Errno::ETIMEDOUT) —

    if connection times out
