Does Pulse .stream() have built-in reconnect logic?
On my server, it stopped receiving events for some reason. I had to restart the process and it came back online. Does Prisma have a recommended way for ensuring this connection stays active on long-running servers?

Skipping coffee for instant knowledge! Let's brew that AI answer now.
Based on the knowledge sources provided, there is limited information specifically about Pulse's
.stream() reconnection logic. However, I can provide some relevant insights:
1. Pulse does have some built-in reconnection logic. According to Github Issue #24720, there is an error message that states: "P6101 The connection to the database was momentarily interrupted. Prisma Pulse will attempt to reconnect to the database." This suggests that Pulse does try to reconnect automatically in some cases.
2. However, the reconnection logic may not cover all scenarios, as evidenced by your experience where you had to restart the process to resume receiving events.
3. Prisma does not currently have a specific recommended way to ensure the Pulse connection stays active on long-running servers. The knowledge sources do not provide information about best practices for maintaining Pulse connections.
4. For general Prisma Client connections (not specifically Pulse), there have been discussions about connection management and reconnection logic. For example, Github Issue #13993 suggests that Prisma Client could benefit from exposing connection status and events to allow users to implement their own recovery logic.
Given the limited information available, it might be worth considering implementing your own monitoring and reconnection logic for Pulse streams on long-running servers. You could periodically check if events are being received and restart the stream if necessary.
For more detailed and up-to-date information on Pulse's reconnection capabilities and best practices, I recommend reaching out to Prisma's support channels or consulting the latest documentation, as the knowledge sources provided don't contain comprehensive information on this specific topic.
🤔 Alright, thanks for letting us know that there's still some help needed. A team member will reply to you shortly.
In the meantime, please let us know any additional info, questions, or which parts of the answer may need clarification.@Reis Did you get any errors, or was it that you didn't get any events and there was no error?
And yes, stream should automatically try to reconnect in case of any issues
There are some errors for
Connection terminated - I'm still trying to debug what's going on there. But that's why I'm wondering if it would auto-reconnect.Did you get any requestIds in the error message?
Also which database are you using?
