My API route which polls 3rd party APIs is failing after exactly 30seconds even though I am calling waitUntil repeatedly.
It seems the waitUntil property from the underlying worker API is not working properly.
Very frustrating because everything works locally, but the deployed environment doesn’t work.
Please help and provide advice where you can.
Here is the essence of my code:
export async function action({request, params, context}: ActionFunctionArgs) {
const body = (await request.json()) as TrainingCompleteResponse;
// Moving this below the action led to some webhook handling bugs for me. Maybe moving it above so it's defined before it's used would work too? Leaving it here for now.
const handleEvent = async (
body: TrainingCompleteResponse,
context: AppLoadContext,
) => {
// lots of fetches
};
// Kick off event handler asynchronously and use waitUntil() repeatedly until
// handler finishes to prevent worker from killing the handleEvent()
// function early
const handleEventPromise = handleEvent(body, context)
.then(() => {
console.log('Trained model event handler finished successfully');
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error('Error handling trained model event: ', error.message);
});
const refreshWorkerUntilPromiseFinishes = async (
promiseToWaitFor: Promise
As you can see I am calling waitUntil with a promise until the underlying promise is resolved, which should continually extend the life of my worker. However, looking at the logs for this request indicate it lives for exactly 30secs then dies.
