Req plugin for :fuse

ReqFuse provides circuit-breaker (or load-shedding) functionality for HTTP requests that use the Req library.

Usage

After adding the dependencies, simply attach the ReqFuse step to your request ensuring you are passing in the required and any optional fuse configuration.

Mix.install([
  {:req, "~> 0.3"},
  {:req_fuse, "~> 0.2"}
])

req_fuse_opts = [fuse_name: My.Example.Fuse]
req = [url: "https://httpstat.us/500", retry: :never]
|> Req.new()
|> ReqFuse.attach(req_fuse_opts)

# Fire the request enough times to melt the fuse
Enum.each(0..10, fn _ -> Req.request(req) end)
  => :ok
Req.request(req)
  => 08:45:42.518 [warning] :fuse circuit breaker is open; fuse = Elixir.My.Example.Fuse
  => {:error, %RuntimeError{message: "circuit breaker is open"}}

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed by adding req_fuse to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:req_fuse, ">= 0.2.0"}
  ]
end

Twiddling the Knobs

Attach the circuit-breaker :fuse step and configure the available options

Fuse Options

  • :fuse_melt_func - A 1-arity function to determine if response should melt the fuse defaults to ReqFuse.Steps.Fuse.melt?/1
  • :fuse_mode - how to query the fuse, which has two values:
    • :sync - queries are serialized through the :fuse_server process (the default)
    • :async_dirty - queries check the fuse state directly, but may not account for recent melts or resets
  • :fuse_name - REQUIRED the name of the fuse to install
  • :fuse_opts The fuse strategy options (see fuse docs for reference) (order matters) See ReqFuse.Steps.Fuse.defaults/0 for more information.
  • :fuse_verbose - If false, suppress Log output

See https://github.com/jlouis/fuse#tutorial for more information about the supported fuse strategies and their options.
