DurableCall

Invoke methods DRY and safely with parameterized retries, timeouts and logging

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'durable_call'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install durable_call

Usage

Simple usage:

DurableCall.call(Object.new, :object_id)

Multiple arguments and options:

DurableCall.call(Something.new, [:method_name, :param, :other_param], options)

Where options may take:

{
  :interval  # 1. lambda, which takes retry number (min 1) and returns seconds to sleep
             # 2. just Float
             # 3. Symbol for built-in strategies, defaults to :rand
  :logger    # Logger object, defaults to nil
  :retries   # retries number, defaults to 0
  :timeout   # operation timeout, defaults to nil (no time limits)
}

Also, it's possible to perform multiple calls with the same options:

caller = DurableCall::Caller.new(Something.new, options)
caller.call(:method_name, :param, :other_param)
caller.call(:faster_faster, :no_instantiation_overhead)
