Request: allow detecting when hubot-slack has disconnected and will not reconnect
#536 建立於 2018年10月4日
描述
Description
While hubot-slack has support for reconnecting when the connection to Slack is lost, there is a limit to the number of reconnection attempts. If several reconnection attempts fail, the bot will simply hang without a connection. This causes trouble for our process manager, since the client staying open means we don't end up automatically restart it. When this has happened for us a few times lately, we had to manually notice and restart the service in order to get it back up.
I'd like to see some form of event be emitted in this condition to allow us to determine when this has happened so that we can terminate the process and let the process manager restart it.
