RealtimeTrigger

yaml

type: "io.kestra.plugin.nats.RealtimeTrigger"

Consume a message in real-time from a NATS subject on a JetStream-enabled NATS server and create one execution per message.

If you would like to consume multiple messages processed within a given time frame and process them in batch, you can use the io.kestra.plugin.nats.Trigger instead.

Examples

Subscribe to a NATS subject, getting every message from the beginning of the subject on first trigger execution.
