Symfony Messenger safe `sync://` transport
==========================================

[](#symfony-messenger-safe-sync-transport)

This package offers **Symfony Messenger**'s `sync://` transport a different approach:

- Messages are handled **synchronously**, like in `sync://` transport ✅

But:

- In case of failure (handler produces an exception), messages can be **retried**(whereas original `sync://` throws the exception and crashes) 👉
- When max retries have been reached, messages can fall into the `failure_transport` ☝️

This way, `safe-sync://` can be used as a **drop-in replacement** of any asynchronous transport, following the same logic (except messages are now processed synchronously). 👍

Whenever an exception is thrown during message handling, it is **caught by the transport**, which applies the rules you defined within your `messenger.yaml`.
