NewRelic.Instrumented.HTTPoison.Error.__struct__/0 is undefined, cannot expand struct NewRelic.Instrumented.HTTPoison.Error about elixir_agent HOT 5 CLOSED

Do you have to pattern match on the exception name? HTTPoison only has one exception type. This would also work...

{:error, %{reason: reason}} = response

I'll look into mirroring the Error struct but this ^ might fix it for you too

from elixir_agent.

summarizing, we have 3 options:

• first

alias NewRelic.Instrumented.HTTPoison, as: NRHTTPoison

and then: NRHTTPoison.post(...)

• second

case response do
   {:error, {reason: reason}} ->
           ...
   {:ok, {status_code: status, body: body}} ->
      case status do
            200 ->
              ...
            _ ->
              ...
      end
end

• third

case response do
   {:error, %Elixir.HTTPoison.Error{reason: reason}} ->
           ...
   {:ok, %Elixir.HTTPoison.Response{status_code: status, body: body}} ->
      case status do
            200 ->
              ...
            _ ->
              ...
      end
end

I liked the third option, modifying the documentation should help, and I think mirroring the struts won't be necessary, what do you think?

from elixir_agent.

I'll update the docs to point folks to the 2nd and 3rd option based on their preferences.

Thanks for reporting this!

from elixir_agent.

Thanks we'll look into how to solve this

from elixir_agent.

One thing you can do is reference the top level module via Elixir. like this:

{:error, %Elixir.HTTPoison.Error{}} = HTTPoison.get("localhost:12345")

from elixir_agent.
