+title: Ingestion Pipeline Sample Code
+sidebar_position: 30
+---
+
+Complete code for a small sample of a Stellar network ingestion pipeline using the Stellar Go [Ingestion SDK](overview.mdx#the-ingestion-sdk-packages) to publish derived data to a remote message broker. Demonstrate event-driven, distributed processing with a sample microservice (Python script) as subscriber.
+
+This example uses the ZeroMQ [goczmq](https:/zeromq/goczmq) Go wrapper SDK, which requires a few o/s [dependent libraries to also be installed on the host machine](https:/zeromq/goczmq?tab=readme-ov-file#dependencies).
+
+Put these files in a directory, compile and run with `go build -o pipeline ./.; ./pipeline`

+title: Overview
+sidebar_position: 10
+---
+
+This tutorial walks through how an application can leverage common streaming data patterns to ingest Stellar network transaction data using a few select packages from the Stellar Go Repo [github.com/stellar/go](https:/stellar/go/blob/master/) collectively known as the 'Ingestion' SDK:
+
+## The Ingestion SDK packages
+
+- `github.com/stellar/go/amount` utility package to convert prices from network transaction operations to string
+- `github.com/stellar/go/historyarchive` `github.com/stellar/go/support/datastore` `github.com/stellar/go/support/storage` utility package with convenient wrappers for accessing history archives, and avoid low-level http aspects
+- `github.com/stellar/go/ingest` provides parsing functionality over the network ledger data, converts to more developer-centric `LedgerTransaction` model
+- `github.com/stellar/go/ingest/ledgerbackend` provides the captive core backend implementation
+- `github.com/stellar/go/network` provides convenient pre-configured settings for Testnet and Mainnet networks
+- `github.com/stellar/go/xdr` a complete Golang binding to the Stellar network data model
+
+## Ingestion project setup
+
+### Project requirements
+
+To build an example streaming network ingestion pipeline from live Stellar network transaction data, you'll need:
+
+- A developer workstation with [Go](https://go.dev/learn/) programming language runtime installed
+- An IDE to edit Go code, [VSCode](https://code.visualstudio.com/download) is good if one is needed
+- A newly initialized, empty Go project folder. `mkdir pipeline; cd pipeline; go mod init example/pipeline`
+- `stellar-core` must be [installed](https://developers.stellar.org/network/core-node/admin-guide/installation) on your workstation and available on your o/s PATH
+
+The [Stellar network data model](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/learn/fundamentals/stellar-data-structures) is defined in an IDL format expressed in [XDR encoding](https:/stellar/stellar-xdr). Our example application is only interested in a small subset of the overall transaction data model related to buying and selling of assets, i.e. a payment, and defines its own data model internally:
+
+<CodeExample>
+
+```
+::AppPayment
+ Timestamp: uint
+ BuyerAccountId: string
+ SellerAccountId: string
+ AssetCode: string
+ Amount: string
+}
+```
+
+</CodeExample>
+
+The example application will run a [network ingestion pipeline](https:/stellar/go/blob/master/ingest/doc.go) to derive a smaller `ApplicationPayment` model from the [Stellar network transaction data model](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/learn/fundamentals/stellar-data-structures) as 'source of origin' and thus enable the application to avoid large compute resources that would have been required for maintaining storage of the full Stellar network data model.
+
+The ingestion pipeline will perform three distinct stream processor roles:
+
+### Inbound Adapter
+
+Acts as the 'source of origin' for the pipeline. Retrieves [LedgerCloseMeta](https:/stellar/go/blob/f30d11432e81c7a7cbb739a694520f729bbb31dd/xdr/xdr_generated.go#L18358) generated from a Stellar network using captive core. `LedgerCloseMeta` is the top-level aggregate in the Stellar data model of which all [Stellar network transaction data](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/learn/fundamentals/stellar-data-structures) is nested within. Publishes the `LedgerCloseMeta` onto the pipeline.
+
+### Transformer
+
+Subscribes to receive `LedgerCloseMeta` from the pipeline. Uses the Go SDK package [github.com/stellar/go/xdr](https:/stellar/go/tree/master/xdr) to parse the nested network data model for payment operations and convert those into a new instance of application data model `ApplicationPayment` instances. Publishes `ApplicationPayment` to the pipeline.
+
+### Outbound Adapter
+
+Acts as the termination of the pipeline, it subscribes to receive `ApplicationPayment` and publishes the data off the pipeline and to an external data store, a ZeroMQ Publisher Socket, which is essentially a message broker.
+
+### Summary
+
+Refer to [Ingestion Pipeline Sample Application](ingestion-pipeline-code.mdx) for complete code demonstrating usage of the 'ingestion' SDK packages to create these adapters and transformers and run a live pipeline against the Stellar network.
