  # If a record is marked as error and less than 1 minute old,
  # we don't want to pick it up even if not currently locked because
  # we worry we'll run into the same problem again.
  # Once it's more than 1 minute old, we figure it's OK to try again
  # so we can pick up any topic that's that old, even if it was
  # locked by someone, because it's the job of the producer to keep
  # updating the locked_at timestamp as they work on messages in that
  # topic. If the locked_at timestamp is that old, chances are that
  # the producer crashed.

.ping_empty_topics(except_topics) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Update all topics that aren’t currently locked and have no messages waiting. It’s OK if some messages get inserted in the middle of this because the point is that at least within a few milliseconds of each other, it wasn’t locked and had no messages, meaning the topic was in a good state. realized had messages in them, meaning all other topics were empty.

Parameters:

  • except_topics (Array<String>) —

    the list of topics we’ve just

def ping_empty_topics(except_topics)
  records = KafkaTopicInfo.where(locked_by: nil).
    where('topic not in(?)', except_topics)
  records.each do |info|
    info.update_attribute(:last_processed_at, Time.zone.now)
  end
end

.register_error(topic, lock_id) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

The producer calls this if it gets an error sending messages. This essentially locks down this topic for 1 minute (for all producers) and allows the caller to continue to the next topic.

Parameters:

  • topic (String)
