AMQP 连接丢失不会杀死父进程，因此重新连接永远不会发生

Question

I have init function of my GenServer. Supervisor is looking after it, and should restart it on exit.

  def init(_opts) do
    username = get_conf(:username)
    password = get_conf(:password)
    host = get_conf(:host)
    port = get_conf(:port)
    vhost = String.replace(get_conf(:vhost), "/", "%2f")
    {:ok, conn} = Connection.open("amqp://#{username}:#{password}@#{host}:#{port}/#{vhost}")
    {:ok, chan} = Channel.open(conn)
    state = %State{
      exchange: get_conf(:exchange),
      channel: chan,
      routing_key: get_conf(:routing_key)
    }
    {:ok, state}
  end

When I restart RabbitMQ with sudo service rabbitmq-server restart new connection isn't established.

In debug bar I see following: When I click on connection pid <0.417.0> I get message that process doesn't exist any more. It seems that process is dead and parent AmqpTransport know nothing about that. How can I make AmqpTransport die together with it's child Connection ?

Fixed it with adding trapping exits and linking to Connection process. Also I pattern match errors during connection to avoid reached_max_restart_intensity .

  @restart_delay 2000 # 2 seconds

  def init(_opts) do
    Process.flag(:trap_exit, true)
    send(self(), :connect)
    {:ok, nil}
  end

  def handle_info(:connect, state) do
    #...
    case Connection.open("amqp://#{username}:#{password}@#{host}:#{port}/#{vhost}") do
      {:ok, conn} ->
        Process.link(conn.pid)
        # ...
        {:noreply, state}
      {:error, :econnrefused} ->
        Logger.error("amqp transport failed with connection refused")
        Process.send_after(self(), :connect, @restart_delay)
        {:noreply, nil}
    end

  end

  def handle_info({:EXIT, pid, reason}, state) do
    Logger.error("amqp transport failed with #{inspect(reason)}")
    Process.unlink(pid)
    Process.send_after(self(), :connect, @restart_delay)
    {:noreply, nil}
  end
