Hystrix Clojure Bindings

This module contains idiomatic Clojure bindings for Hystrix.

Binaries

Binaries and dependency information for Maven, Ivy, Gradle and others can be found at http://search.maven.org.

Example for Maven:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.netflix.hystrix</groupId>
    <artifactId>hystrix-clj</artifactId>
    <version>x.y.z</version>
</dependency>

and for Ivy:

<dependency org="com.netflix.hystrix" name="hystrix-clj" rev="x.y.z" />

and for Leiningen:

[com.netflix.hystrix/hystrix-clj "x.y.z"]

Usage

Please see the docstrings in src/com/netflix/hystrix/core.clj for extensive usage info.

TL;DR

You have a function that interacts with an untrusted dependency:

(defn make-request
  [arg]
  ... make the request ...)

; execute the request
(make-request "baz")

and you want to make it a Hystrix dependency command. Do this:

(defcommand make-request
  [arg]
  ... make the request ...)

; execute the request
(make-request "baz")

; or queue for async execution
(queue #'make-request "baz")

Event Stream
