go-temp-err-catcher

This is a little package to use with your net.Listeners.

Docs: https://godoc.org/github.com/jbenet/go-temp-err-catcher

Get:

go get github.com/jbenet/go-temp-err-catcher

Examples

It is meant to be used with things like net.Lister.Accept:

import (
  tec "github.com/jbenet/go-temp-err-catcher"
)

func listen(listener net.Listener) {
  var c tec.TempErrCatcher

  for {
    conn, err := listener.Accept()
    if err != nil && c.IsTemporary(c) {
      continue
    }
    return conn, err
  }
}

You can make your errors implement Temporary:

type errTemp struct {
  e error
}

func (e errTemp) Temporary() bool {
  return true
}

func (e errTemp) Error() string {
  return e.e.Error()
}

err := errors.New("beep boop")
var c tec.TempErrCatcher
c.IsTemporary(err)              // false
c.IsTemporary(errTemp{err}) // true

Or just use ErrTemp:

err := errors.New("beep boop")
var c tec.TempErrCatcher
c.IsTemporary(err)              // false
c.IsTemporary(tec.ErrTemp{err}) // true

You can also define an IsTemp function to classify errors:

var ErrSkip = errors.New("this should be skipped")
var ErrNotSkip = errors.New("this should not be skipped")

var c tec.TempErrCatcher
c.IsTemp = func(e error) bool {
  return e == ErrSkip
}

c.IsTemporary(ErrSkip) // true
c.IsTemporary(ErrNotSkip) // false
c.IsTemporary(ErrTemp) // false! no longer accepts Temporary()
