Socket mode in a tokio task breaks on Ctrl-C. about slack-morphism-rust HOT 6 CLOSED

Hey,
if you want to use your own lifecycle instead of serve, there is normal API with start().await and shutdown().await, so you can handle signals yourself and have other lifecycle you need.

serve is just a wrapping method created for convenience/examples.

Oh I just wanted to run it in main, and hit Ctrl-C to exit, nothing fancy. So just using serve for convenience.

Thing is, I also run a client/listener for a discord bot in the same app, so at least one of those 2 awaits nees to go into their own tokio task.

Sending a Ctrl-C while discord serenity's client is inisde a task is handled gracefuly, thankfully, so I just do that - but Morphism - not so much.

Yeah, as I suspected you have other stuff to run and await :)
You need to use

1. slack.start().await <- this will be returned as soon as it is ready
2. discord_client.start().await // Not sure if they're blocking thread or not
3. your own handler for signals (you can use ctrlc yourself if you want)
4. slack.shutdown().await <- to disconnect from Slack server for Socket Mode
5. other cleanups (discord?)

The nature of an error is coming from the ctrlc implementation:
https://detegr.github.io/doc/ctrlc/fn.set_handler.html#

Should only be called once, typically at the start of your program

I suspect someone else already set it. I don't have a windows machine to debug it more, so if you are able to find a better implementation for windows, let me know :)

Ahh, thank you, your example actually makes the api a lot clearer. I (wasn't awake enough and) didn't read hard enough into it, so I had assumed I would've needed to setup events to send signals or some such, but it's just two split calls - appreciate it!

My qualms have been resolved (Thanks!), so I'll let you handle closing the issue in the hopes that a good ctrl-c lib that fixes this comes along ?

from slack-morphism-rust.

Well, if it works for you, then I'll close this issue, since as I mentioned, serve is just using ctrlc for Windows (if you look at the source code, it just 3-4 lines of code).
In real life application start/shutdown is a way to go.
