Hi, I am trying to use akka-http's host-level client-side Http().cachedHostConnectionPool flow as part of a larger stream for which items in the stream may have previously failed, and so it wouldn't make sense to send an HTTP request. In other words, I really want a flow with type something like Flow[(Try[HttpRequest], Context)], (Try[HttpResponse], Context), NotUsed], for which the failure would be propagated.
In general, this seems hard to do using akka-stream. More generally, I'd like to do something like, given a Flow[A,B,NotUsed], construct a new Flow[Try[A], Try[B], NotUsed] that would perform the operation of the original flow only if the input item was a Success. Otherwise, it would propagate the error. I don't see an easy way to accomplish this. Is this the right way to be approaching single-item failure propagation in a stream? Is there any kind of fan-out stage that routes items downstream based on a predicate? Any guidance would be appreciated.
