Summary: Fail gracefully when queue service is down
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: DonationInterface
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
If a queue (ActiveMQ) outage happens then the interface will send back a
cryptic message informing the donor that we've failed pushing the message to
our internal queue.
This is both hard to understand and mostly useless to the donor.
Instead it would be nice to fail gracefully by possibly writing the transaction
locally and replaying it to the queue later. We should have some kind of
monitoring in place to track local queue growth in case of a large unplanned
outage.
At no part of the pipeline should we message our donors a message that makes no
sense to them. If a donation has been accepted through payflow then we should
always show the donor our thank you page.
