When trying to start my process from a DynamicSupervisor
im getting the following error:
{:error,
{:EXIT,
{:badarg,
[
{:erlang, :apply,
[
BfgEngine.MarketService,
:start_link,
{{BfgEngine.MarketService, :start_link, ["1111"]}, :permanent, 5000,
:worker, [BfgEngine.MarketService]}
], []},
{:supervisor, :do_start_child_i, 3, [file: 'supervisor.erl', line: 379]},
{:supervisor, :handle_call, 3, [file: 'supervisor.erl', line: 404]},
{:gen_server, :try_handle_call, 4, [file: 'gen_server.erl', line: 661]},
{:gen_server, :handle_msg, 6, [file: 'gen_server.erl', line: 690]},
{:proc_lib, :init_p_do_apply, 3, [file: 'proc_lib.erl', line: 249]}
]}}}
The code im using is:
def start_market(market_id) do
spec = {MarketService, market_id}
DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, spec)
end
However it is not clear to me what is going wrong. What argument to which function is it thats not correct? How do I break down and read the given error message?
Update:
This is the init method of my supervisor:
@impl true
def init(initial_arg) do
DynamicSupervisor.init(
strategy: :one_for_one,
extra_arguments: [initial_arg]
)
end
Update 2: This is the start_link of market_service:
def start_link(market_id) when is_bitstring(market_id) do
GenServer.start_link(__MODULE__, market_id, name: via_tuple(market_id))
end
Im using the default child_spec
im getting from GenServer
Update 3: Changing to:
def start_market(market_id) do
spec = {MarketService, market_id: market_id}
DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, spec)
end
Gives:
{:error,
{:undef,
[
{BfgEngine.MarketService, :start_link, [[], [market_id: "222"]], []},
{DynamicSupervisor, :start_child, 3,
[file: 'lib/dynamic_supervisor.ex', line: 654]},
{DynamicSupervisor, :handle_start_child, 2,
[file: 'lib/dynamic_supervisor.ex', line: 640]},
{:gen_server, :try_handle_call, 4, [file: 'gen_server.erl', line: 661]},

{:proc_lib, :init_p_do_apply, 3, [file: 'proc_lib.erl', line: 249]}
]}}
Changing to:
def start_market(market_id) do
spec = {MarketService, :market_id, market_id}
DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, spec)
end
Gives:
** (ArgumentError) supervisors expect each child to be one of:
* a module
* a {module, arg} tuple
* a child specification as a map with at least the :id and :start fields
* or a tuple with 6 elements generated by Supervisor.Spec (deprecated)
Got: {BfgEngine.MarketService, :market_id, "222"}

You got badarg
exception to function erlang:apply/3
when there are three arguments BfgEngine.MarketService
, :start_link
and {{BfgEngine.MarketService, :start_link, ["1111"]}, :permanent, 5000, :worker, [BfgEngine.MarketService]}
and it happen in function supervisor:do_start_child_i/3
.
The arguments to the function erlang:apply/3
should be MFA aka Module, Function, Arguments. {{BfgEngine.MarketService, :start_link, ["1111"]}, :permanent, 5000, :worker, [BfgEngine.MarketService]}
is not Arguments because it obviously is not a list of arguments . From your code, I can guess the error is the content of variable spec
. You should provide some proplist or map. I don't know, you should read the documentation of DynamicSupervisor
more carefully.
As of understanding the error message thrown by Elixir, you can refer to the official Erlang documentation . The section about errors and exceptions from Learn You Some Erlang For Great Good can help. The answer of @Hynek -Pichi Vychodil
is also accurate.
As @Milan Jaric
mentioned, your error would come from:
def start_market(market_id) do
spec = {MarketService, market_id}
DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, spec)
end
But not only! DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, spec)
is calling MarketService.start_link/1
! Your problem lies in the combination of this function from the DynamicSupervisor module, and the way you parse values in MarketService.start_link/1:
def start_link(market_id) when is_bitstring(market_id) do
GenServer.start_link(__MODULE__, market_id, name: via_tuple(market_id))
end
Indeed, this code should work, if you also have implemented MarketService.init/1 correctly. I am not able to reproduce the error. Are you sure market_id
is really a bitstring?
Personally, I had based my code on the official documentation :
defmodule MySupervisor do
use DynamicSupervisor
def start_link(init_arg) do
DynamicSupervisor.start_link(__MODULE__, init_arg, name: __MODULE__)
end
def start_child(foo, bar, baz) do
# If MyWorker is not using the new child specs, we need to pass a map:
# spec = %{id: MyWorker, start: {MyWorker, :start_link, [foo, bar, baz]}}
spec = {MyWorker, foo: foo, bar: bar, baz: baz}
DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, spec)
end
@impl true
def init(init_arg) do
DynamicSupervisor.init(
strategy: :one_for_one,
extra_arguments: [init_arg]
)
end
end
As you can see, they suggest to use a Keyword list here:
spec = {MyWorker, foo: foo, bar: bar, baz: baz}
It works only if you've implemented MyWorker.start_link/1
as follows:
def start_link(args) do
foo = Keyword.fetch!(args, :foo)
bar = Keyword.fetch!(args, :bar)
baz = Keyword.fetch!(args, :baz)
Genserver.start_link(__MODULE__, {foo, bar, baz}, [])
def init({foo, bar, baz}) do
# do something...
state = {foo, bar, baz}
{:ok, state}
In your case, if you change start_market/1 to:
def start_market(market_id) do
spec = {MarketService, market_id: market_id}
DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, spec)
end
It will not work because this MarketService.start_link/1 will fail:
def start_link(market_id) when is_bitstring(market_id) do
GenServer.start_link(__MODULE__, market_id, name: via_tuple(market_id))
end
market_id here is not a bitstring
but a Keyword list. So you got to modify MarketService.start_link/1 function to:
def start_link(args) when is_list(args) do
market_id = Keyword.fetch!(args, :market_id)
GenServer.start_link(__MODULE__, market_id, name: via_tuple(market_id))
end
And write a MarketService.init/1 as follows:
def init(market_id) do
# do something... Let's keep it simple for the example:
state = market_id
{:ok, state}
end
It is hard to tell from posted code, but could you try changing start_market
to:
def start_market(market_id) do
spec = {MarketService, :market_id, market_id}
DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, spec)
end
UPDATE (Below are two options):
def start_market(market_id) do
spec = &{
id: MarketService,
start: {MarketService, start_link, [market_id]},
type: :worker
}
DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, spec)
end
OR
def start_market(market_id) do
spec = {MarketService, [market_id]}
DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, spec)
end
