Azure Event Hubs SDK for TypeScript

High-throughput event streaming and real-time data ingestion.

Installation

npm install @azure/event-hubs @azure/identity

For checkpointing with consumer groups:

npm install @azure/eventhubs-checkpointstore-blob @azure/storage-blob

Environment Variables

EVENTHUB_NAMESPACE=<namespace>.servicebus.windows.net
EVENTHUB_NAME=my-eventhub
STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME=<storage-account>
STORAGE_CONTAINER_NAME=checkpoints

Authentication

import { EventHubProducerClient, EventHubConsumerClient } from "@azure/event-hubs";
import { DefaultAzureCredential } from "@azure/identity";

const fullyQualifiedNamespace = process.env.EVENTHUB_NAMESPACE!;
const eventHubName = process.env.EVENTHUB_NAME!;
const credential = new DefaultAzureCredential();

// Producer
const producer = new EventHubProducerClient(fullyQualifiedNamespace, eventHubName, credential);

// Consumer
const consumer = new EventHubConsumerClient(
  "$Default", // Consumer group
  fullyQualifiedNamespace,
  eventHubName,
  credential
);

Core Workflow

Send Events

const producer = new EventHubProducerClient(namespace, eventHubName, credential);

// Create batch and add events
const batch = await producer.createBatch();
batch.tryAdd({ body: { temperature: 72.5, deviceId: "sensor-1" } });
batch.tryAdd({ body: { temp
