Keep publishing and automatic reconnect

[amrx101]

I have a use case where in

• Keep publishing packet in a loop
• And the client should acquire connection if disconnection happens.

The first one, we can use a loop, but on the second , how do we handle reconnect with a loop. What kind of error does the client throw if disconnection happens.

From the docs you can see Client.publish (and other methods) returns a crate::Result with the error part crate::Error which includes a Disconnected variant.

You'll need to check if publish (or any other methods your use) return this result and handle the errors appropriately. Likely you can just try reconnecting for any kind of error assuming the very first connect worked ok. There may be some StdError variants that are actually fatal OS issues but what you do with those I couldn't say.
