-<h1>5. Error Handling<a class="headerlink" href="#error-handling" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
-<p>In every distributed system, the robustness of your application depends
-on its ability to recover gracefully from unexpected events. The AMPS
-client provides the building blocks necessary to ensure your application
-can recover from the kinds of errors and special events that may occur

-<h2>Exceptions<a class="headerlink" href="#exceptions" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
-<p>Generally speaking, when an error occurs that prohibits an operation
-from succeeding, AMPS will throw an exception. AMPS exceptions
-universally derive from <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">AMPS.AMPSException</span></code>, so by catching
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">AMPSException</span></code>, you will be sure to catch anything AMPS throws, for
-example:</p>
-<div class="code python highlight-default"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">read_and_evaluate</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">client</span><span class="p">):</span>

-<p><strong>Example 5.1:</strong> <em>Catching an AMPS Exception</em></p>
-<p>In this example, if an error occurs, the program writes the error to
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">stderr</span></code> and the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">publish()</span></code> command fails. However, <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">client</span></code> is
-still usable for continued publishing and subscribing. When the error
-occurs, the exception is written to the console. As with most Python
-exceptions, <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">str()</span></code> will convert the exception into a string that
-includes a descriptive message.</p>
-<p>AMPS exception types vary based on the nature of the error that occurs.
-In your program, if you would like to handle certain kinds of errors
-differently than others, you can handle the appropriate subclass of
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">AMPSException</span></code> to detect those specific errors and do something
-different.</p>

-<p>When using asynchronous message processing, exceptions thrown from the
-message handler are silently absorbed by the AMPS Python client by
-default. The AMPS Python client allows you to register an exception
-listener to detect and respond to these exceptions. When an exception
-listener is registered, AMPS will call the exception listener with the

-<p>The named convenience methods and the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Command</span></code> class provide a
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">timeout</span></code> setting that specifies how long the command should wait
-to receive a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">processed</span></code> acknowledgment from AMPS. This can be helpful
-in cases where it is important for the caller to limit the amount of time
-to block waiting for AMPS to acknowledge the command. If the AMPS client
-does not receive the processed acknowledgment within the specified
-time, the client sends an <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">unsubscribe</span></code> command to the server to
-cancel the command and throws an exception.</p>
-<p>Acknowledgments from AMPS are processed by the client receive thread
-on the same socket as data from AMPS. This means that any other data
-previously returned (such as the results of a large query) must be
-consumed before the acknowledgment can be processed. An application
-that submits a set of SOW queries in rapid succession should set a
-timeout that takes into account the amount of time required to
-process the results of the previous query.</p>

-<div class="section" id="disconnect-handling">
-<h2>Disconnect Handling<a class="headerlink" href="#disconnect-handling" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
-<p>Every distributed system will experience occasional disconnections
-between one or more nodes. The reliability of the overall system depends
-on an application&#8217;s ability to efficiently detect and recover from these
-disconnections. Using the AMPS Python client&#8217;s disconnect handling, you
-can build powerful applications that are resilient in the face of
-connection failures and spurious disconnects. For additional
-reliability, you can also use the high availability client (discussed in
-the following sections), which provides both disconnect handling and
-features to help ensure that messages are reliably delivered.</p>
-<div class="section" id="using-a-heartbeat-to-detect-disconnection">
-<h3>Using a Heartbeat to Detect Disconnection<a class="headerlink" href="#using-a-heartbeat-to-detect-disconnection" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
-<p>The AMPS client includes a heartbeat feature to help applications detect
-disconnection from the server within a predictable amount of time.
-Without using a heartbeat, an application must rely on the operating
-system to notify it when a disconnect occurs. For applications that are
-simply receiving messages, it can be impossible to tell whether a socket
-is disconnected or whether there are simply no incoming messages for the client.</p>
-<p>When you set a heartbeat, the AMPS client sends a heartbeat message to
-the AMPS server at a regular interval, and waits a specified amount of
-time for the response. If the operating system reports an error on send,
-or if there is no message received from the server within the specified
-amount of time, the AMPS client considers the server to be disconnected.
-Likewise, the server will ensure that traffic is sent to the client
-at the specified interval, using heartbeat messages when no other traffic
-is being sent to the client. If, after sending a heartbeat message, no
-traffic from the client arrives within a period twice the specified
-interval, the server will consider the client to be disconnected or
-nonresponsive.</p>
-<p>The AMPS client processes heartbeat messages on the client receive
-thread, which is the thread used for asynchronous message processing. If
-your application uses asynchronous message processing and occupies the
-thread for longer than the heartbeat interval, the client may fail to
-respond to heartbeat messages in a timely manner and may be disconnected
-by the server.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="section" id="managing-disconnection">
-<h3>Managing Disconnection<a class="headerlink" href="#managing-disconnection" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
-<p>The <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">HAClient</span></code> class, included with the AMPS Python client, contains a
-disconnect handler and other features for building highly-available
-applications. The <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">HAClient</span></code> includes features for managing a list of
-failover servers, resuming subscriptions, republishing in-flight
-messages, and other functionality that is commonly needed for high
-availability. 60East recommends using the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">HAClient</span></code> for automatic
-reconnection wherever possible, as the HAClient disconnect handler has
-been carefully crafted to handle a wide variety of edge cases and
-potential failures.</p>
-<p>If an application needs to reconnect or fail over, use an
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">HAClient</span></code>, and the AMPS client library will automatically
-handle failover and reconnection. You control which servers
-the client fails over to using an implementation of the
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ServerChooser</span></code> interface, and you can control the timing of
-the failover using an implementation of the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ReconnectDelayStrategy</span></code>
-interface.</p>
-<div class="admonition tip">
-<p class="first admonition-title">Tip</p>
-<p class="last">For most applications, the combination of the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">HAClient</span></code>
-disconnect handler and a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ConnectionStateListener</span></code> gives
-you the ability to monitor disconnections and add custom
-behavior at the appropriate point in the reconnection
-process.</p>
-</div>
-<p>If you need to add custom behavior to the failover (such as logging,
-resetting an internal cache, refreshing credentials and so on), the
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ConnectionStateListener</span></code> class allows your application to
-be notified and take action when disconnection is detected and at
-each stage of the reconnection process.</p>
-<p>To extend the behavior of the AMPS client during reconnection, implement
-a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ConnectionStateListener</span></code>.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="section" id="replacing-disconnect-handling">
-<h3>Replacing Disconnect Handling<a class="headerlink" href="#replacing-disconnect-handling" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
-<p>In some cases, an application does not want the AMPS client to
-reconnect, but instead wants to take a different action if
-disconnection occurs. For example, a stateless publisher
-that sends ephemeral data (such as telemetry or prices) may want
-to exit with an error if the connection is lost rather than
-risk falling behind and providing outdated messages. Often,
-in this case, a monitoring process will start another publisher
-if a publisher fails, and it is better for a message to be
-lost than to arrive late.</p>
-<p>To cover cases where the application has unusual needs, the
-AMPS client library allows an application to provide custom
-disconnect handling.</p>
-<p>Your application gets to specify exactly what happens when a
-disconnect occurs by supplying a function to
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">client.set_disconnect_handler()</span></code>, which is invoked whenever
-a disconnect occurs. This may be helpful for situations
-where a particular connection needs to do something completely
-different than reconnecting or failing over to another AMPS server.</p>
-<div class="admonition caution">
-<p class="first admonition-title">Caution</p>
-<p class="last">Setting the disconnect handler completely replaces the disconnection
-and failover behavior for an <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">HAClient</span></code> and provides the <em>only</em> disconnection
-and failover behavior for a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Client</span></code>.</p>
-</div>
-<p>The handler runs on the thread that detects the disconnect. This may
-be the client receive thread (for example, if the disconnect is detected
-due to heartbeating) or an application thread (for example, if the disconnect
-is detected when sending a command to AMPS).</p>

-<span id="id1"></span><h2>Unexpected Messages<a class="headerlink" href="#unexpected-messages" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
-<p>The AMPS Python client handles most incoming messages and takes
-appropriate action. Some messages are unexpected or occur only in very
-rare circumstances. The AMPS Python client provides a way for clients to
-process these messages. Rather than providing handlers for all of these
-unusual events, AMPS provides a single handler function for messages
-that can&#8217;t be handled during normal processing.</p>
-<p>Your application registers this handler by setting the
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">last_chance_message_handler</span></code> for the client. This handler is called
-when the client receives a message that can&#8217;t be processed by any other
-handler. This is a rare event, and typically indicates an unexpected
-condition.</p>
-<p>For example, if a client publishes a message that AMPS cannot parse,
-AMPS returns a failure acknowledgment. This is an unexpected event, so
-AMPS does not include an explicit handler for this event, and failure
-acknowledgments are received in the method registered as the
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">last_chance_message_handler</span></code>.</p>
-<p>Your application is responsible for taking any corrective action needed.
-For example, if a message publication fails, your application can decide
-to republish the message, publish a compensating message, log the error,
-stop publication altogether, or any other action that is appropriate.</p>

-<div class="section" id="unhandled-exceptions">
-<h2>Unhandled Exceptions<a class="headerlink" href="#unhandled-exceptions" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
-<p>When using the asynchronous interface, exceptions can occur that are not
-thrown to the user. For example, when an exception occurs in the process
-of reading subscription data from the AMPS server, the exception occurs
-on a thread inside of the AMPS Python client. Consider the following
-example using the asynchronous interface:</p>
-<div class="code python highlight-default"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">class</span> <span class="nc">MyApp</span><span class="p">:</span>

-</pre></div>
-</div>
-<p><strong>Example 5.4:</strong> <em>Where do Exceptions go?</em></p>
-<p>In this example, we set up a subscription to wait for messages on the
-pokes topic, whose Pokee tag begins with our user name. When messages
-arrive, we print a message out to the console, but otherwise our
-application waits for a key to be pressed.</p>
-<p>Inside of the AMPS client, the client creates a new thread of execution
-that reads data from the server, and invokes message handlers and
-disconnect handlers when those events occur. When exceptions occur
-inside this thread, however, there is no caller for them to be thrown
-to and by default they are ignored.</p>
-<p>In applications that use the asynchronous interface, and where it is
-important to deal with every issue that occurs in using AMPS, you can
-set an <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ExceptionHandler</span></code> via <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Client.set_exception_listener()</span></code> that
-receives these otherwise unhandled exceptions. Making the modifications
-shown in
-<a class="reference internal" href="#error-handling-exception-listener"><span class="std std-ref">Example 5.5</span></a>
-to our previous example will allow those exceptions to be caught and handled.
-In this case we are simply printing those caught exceptions out to the
-console.</p>
-<div class="admonition tip">
-<p class="first admonition-title">Tip</p>
-<p class="last">In some cases, the AMPS Python client may wrap exceptions of unknown type into
-an <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">AMPSException</span></code>. Your application should always include an except block
-for <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">AMPSException</span></code>.</p>
-</div>
-<p>If your application will attempt to recover from an exception
-thrown on the background processing thread, your application should

-<div class="admonition tip">

-<div class="section" id="detecting-write-failures">
-<h2>Detecting Write Failures<a class="headerlink" href="#detecting-write-failures" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
-<p id="index-0">The <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">publish</span></code> methods in the Python client deliver the
-message to be published to AMPS then return immediately, without waiting
-for AMPS to return an acknowledgment. Likewise, the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sow_delete</span></code>
-methods request deletion of SOW messages, and return before AMPS
-processes the message and performs the deletion. This approach provides
-high performance for operations that are unlikely to fail in production.
-However, this means that the methods return before AMPS has processed
-the command, without the ability to return an error in the event the
-command fails.</p>
-<p>The AMPS Python client provides a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">failed_write_handler</span></code> that is
-called when the client receives an acknowledgment that indicates a
-failure to persist data within AMPS. As with the
-<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">last_chance_message_handler</span></code> described in the
-<a class="reference internal" href="#unexpected-messages"><span class="std std-ref">Unexpected Messages</span></a> section,
-your application registers a handler for this function. When an acknowledgment returns that
-indicates a failed write, AMPS calls the registered handler method with
-information from the acknowledgment message, supplemented with
-information from the client publish store if one is available. Your
-client can log this information, present an error to the user or take
-whatever action is appropriate for the failure.</p>
-<p>If your application needs to know whether publishes succeeded and
-are durably persisted, the following approach is recommended:</p>
-<ul class="simple">
-<li>Set a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">PublishStore</span></code> on the client. This will ensure that messages
-are retransmitted if the client becomes disconnected before the
-message is acknowledged <em>and</em> request <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">persisted</span></code> acknowledgments
-for messages.</li>
-<li>Install a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">failed_write_handler</span></code>. In the event that AMPS reports
-an error for a given message, that event will be reported to
-the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">failed_write_handler</span></code>.</li>
-<li>Call <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">publish_flush()</span></code> and verify that all messages are
-persisted before the application exits.</li>
-</ul>
-<p>When no <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">failed_write_handler</span></code> is registered, acknowledgments that
-indicate errors in persisting data are treated as unexpected messages
-and routed to the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">last_chance_message_handler</span></code>. In this case, AMPS
-provides only the acknowledgment message and does not provide the
-additional information from the client publish store.</p>

-<div class="section" id="monitoring-connection-state">
-<h2>Monitoring Connection State<a class="headerlink" href="#monitoring-connection-state" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
