[watermill-amqp] What is the mechanism of exception handling? about watermill

[roblaszczak]

Do you have more details? Do you mean that this flow of reconnecting is not executing properly: https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-amqp/blob/master/pkg/amqp/subscriber.go#L70 ?

I simulated the rabbmitmq outage

Stopped rabbmitmq

But I don't know how to use your package to capture disconnected yics

I want to catch the exception

Reestablishing channels

[duolabmeng6]

How should I add

Listen for rabbmitmq disconnect event

[duolabmeng6]

I checked all the documents

There's still no way to write it down

Sorry to bother you.

Hi, I have the same problem.

I think that when the connection is lost and reconnection is done the message channel stops receiving them.

For example, in a loop like the one in the example, messages stop being received.

func process(messages <-chan *message.Message) {
	for msg := range messages {
		log.Printf("received message: %s, payload: %s", msg.UUID, string(msg.Payload))

		// we need to Acknowledge that we received and processed the message,
		// otherwise, it will be resent over and over again.
		msg.Ack()
	}
}

I haven't had much time to look at the reconnect implementation but it's probably something related to the code you said (https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-amqp/blob/master/pkg/amqp/subscriber.go#L70)

Any ideas?

Thanks :D

Hello @sdeancos @duolabmeng6 I checked locally and with tests (https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-amqp/blob/master/pkg/amqp/pubsub_reconnect_test.go) and it seems that reconnect is working for me properly. Can you provide a bit more details to reproduce it? Thanks!

This is the code that I'm using

package main

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"
	"time"

	"github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill"
	"github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill-amqp/pkg/amqp"
	"github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill/message"
)

func createPubSub() (message.Publisher, message.Subscriber) {
	publisher, err := amqp.NewPublisher(
		amqp.NewDurablePubSubConfig(
			"amqp://guest:guest@localhost:5672",
			nil,
		),
		watermill.NewStdLogger(true, true),
	)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	subscriber, err := amqp.NewSubscriber(
		amqp.NewDurablePubSubConfig(
			"amqp://guest:guest@localhost:5672",
			amqp.GenerateQueueNameTopicNameWithSuffix("test"),
		),
		watermill.NewStdLogger(true, true),
	)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	return publisher, subscriber
}

func main() {
	pub, sub := createPubSub()

	go func() {
		for {
			pub.Publish("foo", message.NewMessage(time.Now().String(), nil))
			time.Sleep(time.Second)
		}
	}()

	msgs, err := sub.Subscribe(context.Background(), "foo")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	for msg := range msgs {
		fmt.Println(msg.UUID)
		msg.Ack()
	}
}

and docker-compose:

version: '3'
services:
  rabbitmq:
    image: rabbitmq:3.7-management
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 5672:5672

I'm running the Go code and I'm restarting docker to force re-connect.
