Crius

Crius is a simple hystrix-like circuit breaker for rust.

"In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity"

Usage

Simple command

```rust extern crate crius;

use crius::command::Command;

fn run_command() { let receiver = Command::define(|| { return Ok("Ok Result") }).create().run();

assert_eq!("Ok Result", receiver.recv().unwrap().unwrap());

} ```

Command with fallback

```rust extern crate crius;

use crius::command::Command; use std::error::Error; use std::fmt;

//Define Error Type

[derive(Debug)]

struct MyError; impl fmt::Display for MyError { fn fmt(&self, f: &mut fmt::Formatter) -> fmt::Result { write!(f, "An error happened") } } impl Error for MyError { fn description(&self) -> &str { return "My Error" } } unsafe impl Send for MyError {} unsafe impl Sync for MyError {}

fn runcommandwithfallback() { let receiver = Command::definewith_fallback(|| { return Err(Box::new(MyError {})) }, |e| { return "Fallback result if an error occurred"; }).create().run();

assert_eq!("Fallback result if an error occurred", receiver.recv().unwrap().unwrap());

} ```

Command with custom configuration

```rust extern crate crius;

use crius::command::Command; use crius::command::Config;

fn runcommandwithfallback() { let config = *Config::new() .circuitopenms(5000) .errorthreshold(10) .errorthresholdpercentage(50) .bucketsinwindow(100) .bucketsizein_ms(1000);

let receiver = Command::define(|| {
    return Ok("Ok Result")
}).config(config).create().run();

assert_eq!("Ok Result", receiver.recv().unwrap().unwrap());

} ```

Error types and handling

The error types that are provided by trychis can be found in crius::command::error. Currently it only contains one error RejectError, which is returned when the circuit is open and therefore the command rejected.

If an error is occurring it will be returned in the receiver, except when a fallback is provided where it is than passed as a param to the fallback function. The returned / passed error is of type Error + Send + Sync + 'static - with this we can check and downcast to the original error, for example:

```rust fn commandwitherror_handlong() {

//Note: we explicitly need to define the success type here, as it is not in the command function returned nor is there a fallback to provide it.
let receiver = Command::<i32, _>::define(|| {
    return Err(Box::new(MyError { my_error_code: 1234 }))
}).create().run();

let err = receiver.recv().unwrap().unwrap_err();
if err.is::<MyError>() {
    let my_error = err.downcast_ref::<MyError>().unwrap();
    assert_eq!(1234, my_error.my_error_code);
} else {
    let reject_error = err.downcast_ref::<RejectError>().unwrap();
    //...
}

} ```

Configuration

circuit_open_ms - Time in ms commands are rejected after the circuit opened - Default 5000

error_threshold - Minimum amount of errors for the circuit to break - Default 10

error_threshold_percentage - Minimum error percentage for the circuit to break - Default 50

buckets_in_window - Trychis is using a rolling window to track success/error calls, this property defines the amount of buckets in a window (bucketsinwindow * bucketsizein_ms is the overall length in ms of the window) - Default 10

bucket_size_in_ms - This property defines the ms a bucket is long, i.e. each x ms a new bucket will be created (bucketsinwindow * bucketsizein_ms is the overall length in ms of the window) - Default 1000
