This module wraps Feign's http requests in Hystrix, which enables the Circuit Breaker Pattern.
To use Hystrix with Feign, add the Hystrix module to your classpath. Then, configure Feign to use the HystrixInvocationHandler:
GitHub github = HystrixFeign.builder()
.target(GitHub.class, "https://api.github.com");Methods that do not return HystrixCommand are still wrapped in a HystrixCommand, but execute() is automatically called for you.
For asynchronous or reactive use, return HystrixCommand<YourType> rather than just YourType.
interface YourApi {
@RequestLine("GET /yourtype/{id}")
HystrixCommand<YourType> getYourType(@Param("id") String id);
@RequestLine("GET /yourtype/{id}")
YourType getYourTypeSynchronous(@Param("id") String id);
}
YourApi api = HystrixFeign.builder()
.target(YourApi.class, "https://example.com");
// for reactive
api.getYourType("a").toObservable();
// for asynchronous
api.getYourType("a").queue();
// for synchronous
api.getYourType("a").execute();
// or to apply hystrix to existing feign methods.
api.getYourTypeSynchronous("a");
