Field Details

WAIT

@Deprecated
public static final AbuseLimitHandler WAIT

Deprecated.

Wait until the API abuse "wait time" is passed.

FAIL

@Deprecated
public static final AbuseLimitHandler FAIL

Deprecated.

Fail immediately.

TOO_MANY_REQUESTS

public static final int TOO_MANY_REQUESTS

The HTTP 429 Too Many Requests response status code indicates the user has sent too many requests in a given amount of time ("rate limiting"). A Retry-After header might be included to this response indicating how long to wait before making a new request. Why is this hardcoded here? The HttpURLConnection class is missing the status codes above 415, so the constant needs to be sourced from elsewhere.

Method Details

onError

public void onError(@Nonnull
 GitHubConnectorResponse connectorResponse)
             throws IOException

Deprecated.

Called when the library encounters HTTP error indicating that the API abuse limit is reached.

Any exception thrown from this method will cause the request to fail, and the caller of github-api will receive an exception. If this method returns normally, another request will be attempted. For that to make sense, the implementation needs to wait for some time.

Specified by:

onError in class GitHubAbuseLimitHandler

Parameters:

connectorResponse - Response information for this request.

Throws:

IOException - on failure

onError

@Deprecated
public abstract void onError(IOException e,
 HttpURLConnection uc)
                      throws IOException

Deprecated.

Called when the library encounters HTTP error indicating that the API abuse limit is reached.

Any exception thrown from this method will cause the request to fail, and the caller of github-api will receive an exception. If this method returns normally, another request will be attempted. For that to make sense, the implementation needs to wait for some time.

Parameters:

e - Exception from Java I/O layer. If you decide to fail the processing, you can throw this exception (or wrap this exception into another exception and throw it).

uc - Connection that resulted in an error. Useful for accessing other response headers.

Throws:

IOException - on failure
