# stream-reconnect
[](https://crates.io/crates/stream-reconnect)
[](https://docs.rs/stream-reconnect)
This crate provides a `Stream`/`Sink`-wrapping struct that automatically recover from potential
disconnections/interruptions.
This is a fork of [stubborn-io](https://github.com/craftytrickster/stubborn-io), which is built for the same purpose but
for `AsyncRead`/`AsyncWrite`.
To use with your project, add the following to your Cargo.toml:
```toml
stream-reconnect = "0.3"
```
*Minimum supported rust version: 1.43.1*
## Runtime Support
This crate supports both `tokio` and `async-std` runtime.
`tokio` support is enabled by default. While used on an `async-std` runtime, change the corresponding dependency
in `Cargo.toml` to
```toml
stream-reconnect = { version = "0.3", default-features = false, features = ["async-std"] }
```
## Example
In this example, we will see a drop in replacement for tungstenite's WebSocketStream, with the distinction that it will
automatically attempt to reconnect in the face of connectivity failures.
```rust
struct MyWs(WebSocketStream<MaybeTlsStream<TcpStream>>);
// implement Stream & Sink for MyWs
impl UnderlyingStream<String, Message, WsError> for MyWs {
// Establishes connection.
// Additionally, this will be used when reconnect tries are attempted.
fn establish(addr: String) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output=Result<Self, WsError>> + Send>> {
Box::pin(async move {
// In this case, we are trying to connect to the WebSocket endpoint
let ws_connection = connect_async(addr).await.unwrap().0;
Ok(MyWs(ws_connection))
})
}
// The following errors are considered disconnect errors.
fn is_write_disconnect_error(&self, err: &WsError) -> bool {
matches!(
err,
WsError::ConnectionClosed
| WsError::AlreadyClosed
| WsError::Io(_)
| WsError::Tls(_)
| WsError::Protocol(_)
)
}
// If an `Err` is read, then there might be an disconnection.
fn is_read_disconnect_error(&self, item: &Result<Message, WsError>) -> bool {
if let Err(e) = item {
self.is_write_disconnect_error(e)
} else {
false
}
}
// Return "Exhausted" if all retry attempts are failed.
fn exhaust_err() -> WsError {
WsError::Io(io::Error::new(io::ErrorKind::Other, "Exhausted"))
}
}
type ReconnectWs = ReconnectStream<MyWs, String, Result<Message, WsError>, WsError>;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let mut ws_stream: ReconnectWs = ReconnectWs::connect(String::from("wss://localhost:8000"));
ws_stream.send("hello world!").await.unwrap();
}
```
