Hello

Is there a public source code repo available for the PubSub Emulator?  Where might I be able to find an issues list, release notes and roadmap?

I see there is a "Known Limitations" section in the emulator page here - https://cloud.google.com/pubsub/docs/emulator#known_limitations

Are the following features also not supported?
Retry Policies
Maximum Delivery Attempts
Dead Letter Queues
Message Ordering
Subscription Filtering

Many thanks

Alex

I'd like to know this too. I have been unable to get subscription filtering working in the pubsub emulator. It has been a big time sink so far and I'd like to know if I'm just wasting my time on it at this point.

Thanks,

Josh

Hi Josh. The emulator does not support filtering yet. Sorry about the confusion! You can follow the issue at https://issuetracker.google.com/170471468.

The source code for the emulator isn't public. Updates to the emulator (example) are packaged in new releases of the Google Cloud SDK.

Newly released features like dead letter queues, maximum delivery attempts, and filtering are not supported in the emulator. 

I'm not sure about the rest.
