onCompleteWithBreaker

Signature

def onCompleteWithBreaker[T](breaker: CircuitBreaker)(future: => Future[T]): Directive1[Try[T]]

Description

Evaluates its parameter of type Future[T]CompletionStage<T> protecting it with the specified CircuitBreakerCircuitBreaker. Refer to Circuit Breaker for a detailed description of this pattern.

If the CircuitBreakerCircuitBreaker is open, the request is rejected with a CircuitBreakerOpenRejectionCircuitBreakerOpenRejection. Note that in this case the request’s entity databytes stream is cancelled, and the connection is closed as a consequence.

Otherwise, the same behaviour provided by onComplete is to be expected.

Example

Scala
sourcedef divide(a: Int, b: Int): Future[Int] = Future {
  a / b
}

val resetTimeout = 1.second
val breaker = new CircuitBreaker(
  system.scheduler,
  maxFailures = 1,
  callTimeout = 5.seconds,
  resetTimeout
)

val route =
  path("divide" / IntNumber / IntNumber) { (a, b) =>
    onCompleteWithBreaker(breaker)(divide(a, b)) {
      case Success(value) => complete(s"The result was $value")
      case Failure(ex)    => complete(InternalServerError, s"An error occurred: ${ex.getMessage}")
    }
  }

// tests:
Get("/divide/10/2") ~> route ~> check {
  responseAs[String] shouldEqual "The result was 5"
}

Get("/divide/10/0") ~> Route.seal(route) ~> check {
  status shouldEqual InternalServerError
  responseAs[String] shouldEqual "An error occurred: / by zero"
} // opens the circuit breaker

Get("/divide/10/2") ~> route ~> check {
  rejection shouldBe a[CircuitBreakerOpenRejection]
}

Thread.sleep(resetTimeout.toMillis + 200)

Get("/divide/10/2") ~> route ~> check {
  responseAs[String] shouldEqual "The result was 5"
}
