Claims18
A device dynamically discovering what services are available on a message bus, the device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory connected with the processor, the memory comprising executable instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to effectuate operations comprising:
- requesting information about available services associated with a message broker in order to discover the available services, the request comprising:
- a service identifier,
- a service type, and
- an indication of whether the request is blocking or non-blocking;
- receiving a response comprising a description of the available services, the description comprising a contact address of the message broker and respective profiles of the respective available services;
- reviewing a first profile associated with a first service of the available services from the response, wherein the first service provides token values for each non-blocking request, the token values used by the first service to correlate a response with an original application programming interface call;
- connecting with the message broker based on the description of the first profile of the first service in the response;
- based on the connecting with the message broker based on the description of the first service in the response, publishing a profile with information about services available on the device;
- and
- based on the connecting with the message broker based on the description of the first profile of the first service in the response, sending a subscription request to receive notifications when a second available service that matches a second profile subsequently connects with the message broker.

A method dynamically discovering what services are available on a message bus, the method comprising:
- requesting, by a device, from a first service information about available services associated with a message broker in order to discover the available services, the request comprising a service identifier or a service type;
- receiving a response comprising a description of the available services, the description comprising a contact address of the message broker and respective profiles of the respective available services;
- reviewing a second profile associated with a second service of the available services from the response, wherein the first service provides token values for each non-blocking request, the token values used by the first service to correlate a response with an original application programming interface call;
- connecting with the message broker based on the description of the second profile of the second service in the response;
- based on the connecting with the message broker based on the description of the first service in the response, publishing a profile with information about services available on the device;
- and
- based on the connecting with the message broker based on the description of the second profile of the second service in the response, sending a subscription request to receive notifications when a subsequent available service that matches a subsequent profile subsequently connects with the message broker.

A computer readable storage medium comprising computer executable instructions that when executed by a computing device cause said computing device to effectuate operations comprising:
- requesting, by a device, information about available services associated with a message broker in order to discover the available services, the request comprising:
- a service identifier,
- a service type, and
- an indication of whether the request is blocking or non-blocking;
- receiving a response comprising a description of the available services, the description comprising a contact address of the message broker and respective profiles of the respective available services;
- reviewing a first profile associated with a first service of the available services from the response, wherein the first service provides token values for each non-blocking request, the token values used by the first service to correlate a response with an original application programming interface call;
- connecting with the message broker based on the description of the first profile of the first service in the response;
- based on the connecting with the message broker based on the description of the first service in the response, publishing a profile with information about services available on the device;
- and
- based on the connecting with the message broker based on the description of the first profile of the first service in the response, sending a subscription request to receive notifications when a second available service that matches a second profile subsequently connects with the message broker.
