How to Create Your own Messenger Transport
Once you have written your transport's sender and receiver, you can register your transport factory to be able to use it via a DSN in the Symfony application.
Create your Transport Factory
You need to give FrameworkBundle the opportunity to create your transport from a DSN. You will need a transport factory:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Transport\Receiver\ReceiverInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Transport\Sender\SenderInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Transport\Serialization\SerializerInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Transport\TransportFactoryInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Transport\TransportInterface;
class YourTransportFactory implements TransportFactoryInterface
{
public function createTransport(string $dsn, array $options, SerializerInterface $serializer): TransportInterface
{
return new YourTransport(/* ... */);
}
public function supports(string $dsn, array $options): bool
{
return 0 === strpos($dsn, 'my-transport://');
}
}
The transport object needs to implement the TransportInterface (which combines the SenderInterface and ReceiverInterface). Here is a simplified example of a database transport:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Envelope;
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Stamp\TransportMessageIdStamp;
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Transport\Serialization\PhpSerializer;
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Transport\Serialization\SerializerInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Transport\TransportInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Uid\Uuid;
class YourTransport implements TransportInterface
{
private SerializerInterface $serializer;
/**
* @param FakeDatabase $db is used for demo purposes. It is not a real class.
*/
public function __construct(
private FakeDatabase $db,
SerializerInterface $serializer = null,
) {
$this->serializer = $serializer ?? new PhpSerializer();
}
public function get(): iterable
{
// Get a message from "my_queue"
$row = $this->db->createQuery(
'SELECT *
FROM my_queue
WHERE (delivered_at IS NULL OR delivered_at < :redeliver_timeout)
AND handled = FALSE'
)
->setParameter('redeliver_timeout', new DateTimeImmutable('-5 minutes'))
->getOneOrNullResult();
if (null === $row) {
return [];
}
$envelope = $this->serializer->decode([
'body' => $row['envelope'],
]);
return [$envelope->with(new TransportMessageIdStamp($row['id']))];
}
public function ack(Envelope $envelope): void
{
$stamp = $envelope->last(TransportMessageIdStamp::class);
if (!$stamp instanceof TransportMessageIdStamp) {
throw new \LogicException('No TransportMessageIdStamp found on the Envelope.');
}
// Mark the message as "handled"
$this->db->createQuery('UPDATE my_queue SET handled = TRUE WHERE id = :id')
->setParameter('id', $stamp->getId())
->execute();
}
public function reject(Envelope $envelope): void
{
$stamp = $envelope->last(TransportMessageIdStamp::class);
if (!$stamp instanceof TransportMessageIdStamp) {
throw new \LogicException('No TransportMessageIdStamp found on the Envelope.');
}
// Delete the message from the "my_queue" table
$this->db->createQuery('DELETE FROM my_queue WHERE id = :id')
->setParameter('id', $stamp->getId())
->execute();
}
public function send(Envelope $envelope): Envelope
{
$encodedMessage = $this->serializer->encode($envelope);
$uuid = (string) Uuid::v4();
// Add a message to the "my_queue" table
$this->db->createQuery(
'INSERT INTO my_queue (id, envelope, delivered_at, handled)
VALUES (:id, :envelope, NULL, FALSE)'
)
->setParameters([
'id' => $uuid,
'envelope' => $encodedMessage['body'],
])
->execute();
return $envelope->with(new TransportMessageIdStamp($uuid));
}
}
The implementation above is not runnable code but illustrates how a TransportInterface could be implemented. For real implementations see InMemoryTransport and DoctrineReceiver.
Register your Factory

# config/services.yaml
services:
Your\Transport\YourTransportFactory:

Use your Transport
Within the framework.messenger.transports.*
configuration, create your
named transport using your own DSN:

# config/packages/messenger.yaml
framework:

transports:
yours: 'my-transport://...'

// config/packages/messenger.php
use Symfony\Config\FrameworkConfig;
return static function (FrameworkConfig $framework): void {
$framework->messenger()
->transport('yours')
->dsn('my-transport://...')
;
};
In addition of being able to route your messages to the yours
sender, this
will give you access to the following services:
messenger.sender.yours
: the sender;messenger.receiver.yours
: the receiver.
