+# Contributors guide v0.1
+
+## How can I help?
+
+We are always happy to help you in contributing to Watermill. If you have any ideas, please let us know on our [Discord server](https://watermill.io/support/).
+
+There are multiple ways in which you can help us.
+
+### Existing issues
+
+You can pick one of the existing issues. Most of the issues should have an estimation (S - small, M - medium, L - large).
+
+- [Good first issues list](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22) - simple issues to begin with
+- [Help wanted issues list](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22help+wanted%22) - tasks that are already more or less clear, and you can start to implement them pretty quickly
+
+### New Pub/Sub implementations
+
+If you have an idea to create a Pub/Sub based on some technology and it is not listed yet in our issues (because we don't know it, or it is just some crazy idea, like physical mail based Pub/Sub), feel free to add your own implementation.
+You can do it in your private repository or if you want, we can move it to `ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-[name]`.
+
+*Please keep in mind that you will not be able to push changes directly to the master branch in a project in our organization*.
+
+When adding a new Pub/Sub implementation, you should start with this guide: [https://watermill.io/docs/pub-sub-implementing/](https://watermill.io/docs/pub-sub-implementing/).
+
+### New ideas
+
+If you have any idea that is not covered in the issues list, please post a new issue describing it. 
+It's recommended to discuss your idea on [Discord](https://discord.gg/QV6VFg4YQE)/GitHub before creating production-ready implementation - in some situations, it may save a lot of your time before implementing something that can be simplified or done more easily. :)
+
+In general, it's helpful to discuss a Proof of Concept to align with the idea.
+
+## Local development
+
+Makefile and docker-compose (for Pub/Subs) are your friends. You can run all tests locally (they are running in CI in the same way).
+
+Useful commands:
+- `make up` - docker-compose up
+- `make test` - tests
+- `make test_short` - run short tests (useful to perform a very fast check after changes)
+- `make fmt` - do goimports
+
+## Code standards
+
+- you should run `make fmt`
+- [CodeReviewComments](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments)
+- [Effective Go](https://golang.org/doc/effective_go.html)
+- SOLID
+- code should be open for configuration and not coupled to any serialization method (for example: [AMQP marshaler](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-amqp/blob/master/pkg/amqp/marshaler.go), [AMQP Config](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-amqp/blob/master/pkg/amqp/config.go)

+
+Watermill is a Go library for working efficiently with message streams. It is intended
+for building event driven applications, enabling event sourcing, RPC over messages,
+sagas and basically whatever else comes to your mind. You can use conventional pub/sub
+implementations like Kafka or RabbitMQ, but also HTTP or PostgreSQL if that fits your use case.
+
+## Goals
+
+* **Easy** to understand.
+* **Universal** - event-driven architecture, messaging, stream processing, CQRS - use it for whatever you need.
+* **Fast** (see [Benchmarks](#benchmarks)).
+* **Flexible** with middlewares, plugins and Pub/Sub configurations.
+* **Resilient** - using proven technologies and passing stress tests (see [Stability](#stability)).
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Pick what you like the best or see in order:
+
+1. [Quickstart](https://watermill.io/learn/quickstart/) — learn by coding!
+2. Follow the [Getting Started guide](https://watermill.io/learn/getting-started/).
+3. See examples below.
+4. Read the full documentation: https://watermill.io/
+
+## Our online hands-on training
+
+Go Event-Driven goes beyond Watermill Quickstart. You'll learn industry standard concepts and patterns like:
+
+* Handling at-least-once delivery
+* Asynchronous read models
+* Events & Commands
+* Observability
+* Message ordering
+* Sagas
+
+<a href="https://threedots.tech/event-driven/?utm_source=watermill-readme"><img align="center" width="400" src="https://threedots.tech/event-driven-banner.png"></a>
+
+## Examples
+
+* Basic
+    * [Your first app](_examples/basic/1-your-first-app) - **start here!**
+    * [Realtime feed](_examples/basic/2-realtime-feed)
+    * [Router](_examples/basic/3-router)
+    * [Metrics](_examples/basic/4-metrics)
+    * [CQRS with protobuf](_examples/basic/5-cqrs-protobuf)
+* [Pub/Subs usage](_examples/pubsubs)

+
+## Background
+
+Building distributed and scalable services is rarely as easy as some may suggest. There is a
+lot of hidden knowledge that comes with writing such systems. Just like you don't need to know the
+whole TCP stack to create a HTTP REST server, you shouldn't need to study all of this knowledge to
+start with building message-driven applications.
+
+Watermill's goal is to make communication with messages as easy to use as HTTP routers. It provides
+the tools needed to begin working with event-driven architecture and allows you to learn the details
+on the go.
+
+At the heart of Watermill there is one simple interface:
+```go
+func(*Message) ([]*Message, error)
+```
+
+Your handler receives a message and decides whether to publish new message(s) or return
+an error. What happens next is up to the middlewares you've chosen.
+
+You can find more about our motivations in our [*Introducing Watermill* blog post](https://threedots.tech/post/introducing-watermill/).
+
+## Pub/Subs
+
+All publishers and subscribers have to implement an interface:
+
+```go
+type Publisher interface {
+	Publish(topic string, messages ...*Message) error
+	Close() error
+}
+
+type Subscriber interface {
+	Subscribe(ctx context.Context, topic string) (<-chan *Message, error)
+	Close() error
+}
+```
+
+Supported Pub/Subs:
+
+- AMQP (RabbitMQ) Pub/Sub [(`github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-amqp/v3`)](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-amqp/)

+
+## Unofficial libraries
+
+Can't find your favorite Pub/Sub or library integration? Check [Awesome Watermill](https://watermill.io/docs/awesome/).
+
+If you know another library or are an author of one, please [add it to the list](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill/edit/master/docs/content/docs/awesome.md).
+
+## Contributing
+
+Please check our [contributing guide](CONTRIBUTING.md).
+
+## Stability
+
+Watermill v1.0.0 has been released and is production-ready. The public API is stable and will not change without changing the major version.
+
+To ensure that all Pub/Subs are stable and safe to use in production, we created a [set of tests](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill/blob/master/pubsub/tests/test_pubsub.go#L34) that need to pass for each of the implementations before merging to master.
+All tests are also executed in [*stress*](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill/blob/master/pubsub/tests/test_pubsub.go#L171) mode - that means that we are running all the tests **20x** in parallel.
+
+All tests are run with the race condition detector enabled (`-race` flag in tests).
+
+For more information about debugging tests, you should check [tests troubleshooting guide](http://watermill.io/docs/troubleshooting/#debugging-pubsub-tests).
+
+## Benchmarks
+
+Initial tools for benchmarking Pub/Subs can be found in [watermill-benchmark](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-benchmark).

+All benchmarks are being done on a single 16 CPU VM instance, running one binary and dependencies in Docker Compose.
+
+These numbers are meant to serve as a rough estimate of how fast messages can be processed by different Pub/Subs.
+Keep in mind that the results can be vastly different, depending on the setup and configuration (both much lower and higher).
+
+Here's the short version for message size of 16 bytes.
+
+| Pub/Sub                         | Publish (messages / s) | Subscribe (messages / s) |
+|---------------------------------|------------------------|--------------------------|
+| GoChannel                       | 315,776                | 138,743                  |
+| Redis Streams                   | 59,158                 | 12,134                   |
+| NATS Jetstream (16 Subscribers) | 50,668                 | 34,713                   |

+| SQL (MySQL, batch size=100)     | 6,371                  | 2,794                    |
+| SQL (PostgreSQL, batch size=1)  | 2,831                  | 9,460                    |
+| Google Cloud Pub/Sub            | 3,027                  | 28,589                   |

+
+### `CommandHandler.HandlerName` and `EventHandler.HandlerName` was added to the interface.
+
+If you are using metrics component, you may want to keep backward capability with handler names. In other cases, you can implement your own method of generating handler name.
+
+Keeping backward capability for **event handlers**:
+
+```
+func (h CommandHandler) HandlerName() string {
+    return fmt.Sprintf("command_processor-%s", h)

+```
+
+Keeping backward capability for **command handlers**:
+
+```
+func (h EventHandler) HandlerName() string {
+    return fmt.Sprintf("event_processor-%s", ObjectName(h))
+}
+```
+
+### Added `CommandsSubscriberConstructor` and `EventsSubscriberConstructor`
+
+From now on, `CommandsSubscriberConstructor` and `EventsSubscriberConstructor` are passed to constructors in CQRS component.
+
+They allow creating customized subscribers for every handler. For usage examples please check [_examples/cqrs-protobuf](_examples/cqrs-protobuf).
+
+
+### Added context to `CommandHandler.Handle`, `CommandBus.Send`, `EventHandler.Handle` and `EventBus.Send`
+
+Added missing context, which is passed to Publish function and handlers.
+
+### Other
+
+- `NewCommandProcessor` and `NewEventProcessor` now return an error instead of panic
+- `DuplicateCommandHandlerError` is returned instead of panic when two handlers are handling the same command
+- `CommandProcessor.routerHandlerFunc` and `EventProcessor.routerHandlerFunc` are now private
+- using `GenerateCommandsTopic` and `GenerateEventsTopic` functions instead of constant topic to allow more flexibility
+
+
+## `watermill/message/infrastructure/amqp`
+
+### `Config.QueueBindConfig.RoutingKey` was replaced with `GenerateRoutingKey`
+
+For backward compatibility, when using the constant value you should use a function:
+
+
+```
+func(topic string) string {
+    return "routing_key"
+}
+```
+
+
+## `message/router/middleware`
+
+- `PoisonQueue` is now `PoisonQueue(pub message.Publisher, topic string) (message.HandlerMiddleware, error)`, not a struct

+# Your first Watermill app
+
+This example project shows a basic setup of Watermill. The application runs in a loop, consuming events from a Kafka
+topic, modifying them and publishing to another topic.
+
+There's a docker-compose file included, so you can run the example and see it in action.
+
+To understand the background and internals, see [getting started guide](https://watermill.io/learn/getting-started/).
+
+## Files
+
+- [main.go](main.go) - example source code, the **most interesting file for you**
+- [docker-compose.yml](docker-compose.yml) - local environment Docker Compose configuration, contains Golang, Kafka and Zookeeper
+- [go.mod](go.mod) - Go modules dependencies, you can find more information at [Go wiki](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules)
+- [go.sum](go.sum) - Go modules checksums
+
+## Requirements
+
+To run this example you will need Docker and docker-compose installed. See the [installation guide](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/).
+
+## Running
+
+```bash
+> docker-compose up
+[some initial logs]
+server_1     | 2019/08/29 19:41:23 received event {ID:0}
+server_1     | 2019/08/29 19:41:23 received event {ID:1}
+server_1     | 2019/08/29 19:41:23 received event {ID:2}
+server_1     | 2019/08/29 19:41:23 received event {ID:3}
+server_1     | 2019/08/29 19:41:24 received event {ID:4}
+server_1     | 2019/08/29 19:41:25 received event {ID:5}
+server_1     | 2019/08/29 19:41:26 received event {ID:6}
+server_1     | 2019/08/29 19:41:27 received event {ID:7}
+server_1     | 2019/08/29 19:41:28 received event {ID:8}
+server_1     | 2019/08/29 19:41:29 received event {ID:9}
+```
+
+Open another terminal and take a look at Kafka topics to see that all messages are there. The initial events should be present on the `events` topic:
+
+```bash
+> docker-compose exec server mill kafka consume -b kafka:9092 --topic events
+
+{"id":12}
+{"id":13}
+{"id":14}
+{"id":15}
+{"id":16}
+{"id":17}
+```
+
+And the processed messages will be stored in the `events-processed` topic:
+
+```bash
+> docker-compose exec server mill kafka consume -b kafka:9092 -t events-processed 
+
+{"processed_id":21,"time":"2019-08-29T19:42:31.4464598Z"}
+{"processed_id":22,"time":"2019-08-29T19:42:32.4501767Z"}
+{"processed_id":23,"time":"2019-08-29T19:42:33.4530692Z"}
+{"processed_id":24,"time":"2019-08-29T19:42:34.4561694Z"}
+{"processed_id":25,"time":"2019-08-29T19:42:35.4608918Z"}
+```

+# Realtime Feed
+
+This example features a very busy blogging platform, with thousands of messages showing up on your feed.
+
+There are two separate applications (microservices) integrating over a Kafka topic. The [`producer`](producer/) generates
+thousands of "posts" and publishes them to the topic. The [`consumer`](consumer/) subscribes to this topic and 
+displays each post on the standard output.
+
+The consumer has a throttling middleware enabled, so you have a chance to actually read the posts.
+
+To understand the background and internals, see [getting started guide](https://watermill.io/learn/getting-started/).
+
+## Requirements
+
+To run this example you will need Docker and docker-compose installed. See the [installation guide](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/).
+
+## Running
+
+```bash
+docker-compose up
+```
+
+You should see the live feed of posts on the standard output.
+
+## Exercises
+
+1. Peek into the posts counter published on `posts_count` topic.
+
+```
+docker-compose exec consumer mill kafka consume -b kafka:9092 -t posts_count
+```
+
+2. Add a persistent storage for incoming posts in the consumer service, instead of displaying them.
+   Consider using the [SQL Publisher](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-sql).

+# Prometheus metrics showcase
+
+This is an example application that showcases how Watermill may be monitored with Prometheus metrics.
+
+The docker-compose bundle contains the following services:
+
+#### Golang
+
+A [Golang](https://hub.docker.com/_/golang) image which runs the [example code](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill/blob/master/_examples/basic/4-metrics/main.go). It consists of a router with a single handler. 
+ 
+The handler consumes messages from a [Gochannel PubSub](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill/tree/master/message/infrastructure/gochannel), and publishes 0-4 copies of the message with a preconfigured random delay.
+
+Additionally, there is one goroutine which produces messages incoming to the handler with a gochannel publisher, and another goroutine which consumes the messages outgoing from the handler.
+
+The router, the standalone publisher and the standalone subscriber are all decorated with the metrics code and their statistics will appear in the dashboard.
+
+#### Prometheus
+[Prometheus](https://hub.docker.com/r/prom/prometheus/), to scrape the metrics which the golang application exposes at `:8081/metrics` by default. It is configured by a [prometheus.yml](https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill/blob/master/_examples/basic/4-metrics/prometheus.yml) file, which declares the endpoints that Prometheus will scrape.
+
+#### Grafana
+[Grafana](https://hub.docker.com/r/grafana/grafana), to visualize the metrics in a dashboard.
+
+#### Running the example
+
+To run the docker-compose bundle, go to `_examples/metrics` and execute:
+
+```
+docker-compose up
+```
+
+The golang app will start running, producing messages, passing them through the handler, and consuming the copies.
+
+With default settings, the raw Prometheus metrics should appear at your http://localhost:8081/metrics. 
+
+The Prometheus image should expose a more advanced UI at http://localhost:9090/graph, where you can investigate all the scraped metrics.
+
+However, what is the most useful way to monitor is through the use of Grafana, which you can access at http://localhost:3000. 
+
+#### Adding the Prometheus data source to Grafana
+
+The fresh Grafana image should greet you with a login screen:
+
+![Grafana login screen](https://threedots.tech/watermill-io/grafana_login.png)
+
+Just use the default `admin:admin` credentials. You can skip changing the password, if you wish.
+
+The next thing that we need to do is to add the Prometheus data source. Click on `Add data source`.
+
+In the following screen:
+
+1. Enter a name for the Prometheus data source. Let's name this data source `prometheus`.
+1. Choose `Prometheus` from the `Type` dropdown.
+1. Enter the `http://localhost:9090` value in the HTTP/URL section.
+1. You can leave the remaining settings at default and click `Save & Test`.
+
+![Prometheus data source configuration](https://threedots.tech/watermill-io/prometheus_data_source_config.png)
+
+The Prometheus data source is now ready to use in Grafana.
+
+#### Importing the Grafana dashboard
+
+We have prepared a Grafana dashboard that visualizes the metrics exported by this example.
+
+To import the Grafana dashboard, select Dashboard/Manage from the left menu, and then click on `+Import` (or go to http://localhost:3000/dashboard/import).
+
+Enter the dashboard URL https://grafana.com/dashboards/9777 (or just the ID, 9777), and click on Load.
+
+![Importing the dashboard](https://threedots.tech/watermill-io/grafana_import_dashboard.png)
+
+Then select the Prometheus data source created in the previous step. Click on `Import`, and you're done!

+# Example Golang CQRS application - ordered events with Kafka
+
+This application is using [Watermill CQRS](http://watermill.io/docs/cqrs) component.
+
+Detailed documentation for CQRS can be found in Watermill's docs: [http://watermill.io/docs/cqrs#usage](http://watermill.io/docs/cqrs).
+
+This example, uses event groups to keep order for multiple events. You can read more about them in the [Watermill documentation](https://watermill.io/docs/cqrs/).
+We are also using Kafka's partitioning keys to increase processing throughput without losing order of events.
+
+
+## What does this application do?
+
+This application manages an email subscription system where users can:
+
+1. Subscribe to receive emails by providing their email address
+2. Update their email address after subscribing
+3. Unsubscribe from the mailing list
+
+The system maintains:
+- A current list of all active subscribers
+- A timeline of all subscription-related activities
+
+In this example, keeping order of events is crucial.
+If events won't be ordered, and `SubscriberSubscribed` would arrive after `SubscriberUnsubscribed` event,
+the subscriber will be still subscribed.
+
+## Possible improvements
+
+In this example, we are using global `events` and `commands` topics.
+You can consider splitting them into smaller topics, for example, per aggregate type.
+
+Thanks to that, you can scale your application horizontally and increase the throughput and processing less events.
+
+## Running
+
+```bash
+docker-compose up
+```
