Breaker is an implementation of the Circuit Breaker pattern for .NET with zero dependencies.

This pattern can help you monitor the performance of a remote resource and improve the stability and resilience of your application by isolating the communication with third-party services, so that your application won't be affected by their fails.

You can read more about Martin Fowler and on MSDN

// Initialize the circuit breaker
var settings = new CircuitBreakerConfig
{
    ResetTimeOut = TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(40),
    InvocationTimeOut = TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(250),
    FailuresThreshold = 2,
    SuccessThreshold = 1,
    TaskScheduler = TaskScheduler.Default
};
var circuitBreaker = new CircuitBreaker(settings);

try
{
    // perform a potentially fragile call through the circuit breaker
    circuitBreaker.ExecuteAsync(() => _fragileService.CallAsync);
}
catch (CircuitBreakerTimeoutException)
{
    // timeout exception, trackevent
}
catch (CircuitBreakerOpenException)
{
    // the service is unavailable, failover here
}
catch (Exception)
{
    // handle other unexpected exceptions
}

There are not so many of them. I didn't find any that would suit me, since I need to specify a separated TaskScheduler for the third-party service calls. Polly seems the most mature from all of them but it has a locking nature and it doesn't provide a way to specify a separate TaskScheduler to execute actions. The code provided on MSDN isn't production ready and just a piece of code. And so on so forth. So that the yet another library was born 🚧 .

• Publish to Nuget.
• Adding more events to easily integrate with any analytics platform
• Added some container support
