If a callback throws an exception, Consumer.wait() hangs. #147

@danielrichman

Description

@danielrichman
>>> import couchdbkit
>>> db = couchdbkit.Server("http://localhost:5984")["temp"]
>>> c = couchdbkit.Consumer(db)
>>> def cb(*args):
...     print "In callback"
...     raise ValueError
... 
>>> c.wait(cb)
In callback

Nothing is printed after this point, and the process hangs. It continues to read from _changes, though it does nothing.

Control-C reveals where it's stuck:

^CTraceback (most recent call last):

    break
  File "/home/daniel/temp/lib/python2.6/site-packages/restkit/wrappers.py", line 161, in __exit__

    return self._read_unlocked(n)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/io.py", line 955, in _read_unlocked
    chunk = self.raw.read()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/io.py", line 589, in read
    return self.readall()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/io.py", line 599, in readall
    data = self.read(DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/io.py", line 591, in read
    n = self.readinto(b)
  File "/home/daniel/temp/lib/python2.6/site-packages/http_parser/reader.py", line 60, in readinto
    recved = self.http_stream.stream.readinto(buf)
  File "/home/daniel/temp/lib/python2.6/site-packages/http_parser/reader.py", line 150, in readinto
    return _readinto(self._sock, b)
  File "/home/daniel/temp/lib/python2.6/site-packages/http_parser/reader.py", line 25, in _readinto
    buf = sock.recv(l)
KeyboardInterrupt

As far as I can tell, __ exit __ is called because of the 'with restkit wrapper:' block in sync.py. It then attempts to read the remainder of the stream, which it can't do because continuous changes never ends.

The above console output was produced after installing 'git://github.com/benoitc/couchdbkit.git#egg=couchdbkit' into a clean virtualenv, though I get the same problem with couchdbkit 0.6.3 on python2.7 on another box.

Thanks,
Daniel
