Bypasseable Errors for Rack Attack Proxy Instances

Open mpenalozag opened this issue 4 months ago • 6 comments

Description

Some errors on proxy instances could lead to requests not being passed to the next middleware. This could be behaviour that we want to avoid, we wouldn't want our system to stop responding just because of unexpected issues between Rack::Attack and our external Cache instance.

Considerations

  • This is a short draft to validate the approach. Happy to iterate it.
  • I noticed there could be more tests on some behaviours. Happy to add those after we agree on a solution
