Wiretap Pane

A live event bus monitor for debugging ingestion pipelines and message flow. Subscribe to any EventBus topic and watch decoded packets stream in real time. Essential for integration testing and troubleshooting.

How It Works

  • Topic Input: Enter a bus topic name (e.g. alerts.critical) in the text field
  • Subscribe: Click to start listening. A background thread reads from the EventBus and decodes each payload.
  • Live Feed: Decoded packet lines stream into a scrollable log area. Up to 2,000 lines retained (oldest dropped from front).
  • Unsubscribe: Click to stop the listener and freeze the log.

Status Indicators

IndicatorMeaning
Green dotSubscribed — actively receiving packets
Gray dotIdle — not subscribed to any topic
Line countShows current number of buffered lines (max 2,000)

Use Cases

  • Integration Testing: Verify that SDK sources are publishing correctly formatted messages
  • Pipeline Debugging: Check that messages survive the validate → dedup → route pipeline
  • Alert Verification: Subscribe to alert topics to confirm rules are firing
  • Throughput Monitoring: Watch message rates on high-volume topics
