What this PR does / Why we need it:

A common debugging red herring I see is people seeing an error that reads something akin to:

"message":"error retrieving node  for Pod game-servercbtld: node \"\" not found","severity":"error"

And (not unsurprisingly, it's an error) wondering if it causing whatever issue they are having with Agones.

Except these errors are totally expected, and normal, as Pods often aren't populated with the Node they live on straight away, so I wanted to have a way to be able to return an error from a workerqueue Handler function to retry, but not have it be logged at an Error level.

So that's what this does - provide a wrapper Error type that only gets logged at the Debug level, and the corresponding changes to make that error message above be logged at the Debug level and not cause so much noise.

Which issue(s) this PR fixes:

N/A

Special notes for your reviewer:

If anyone has a better name than "DebugError" please suggest. I wasn't 100% happy, but couldn't come up with anything better.

pkg/util/workerqueue/workerqueue.go


+// DebugError is a marker type for errors that that should only be logged at a Debug level.
+// Useful if you want a Handler to be retried, but not logged at an Error level.
+type DebugError struct {


Is this type intended to be used outside of this package? Given that the constructor below returns error it seems like this should be package scoped and callers should use NewDebugError to create them.

pkg/util/workerqueue/workerqueue.go

+// Error returns the error string
+func (l *debugError) Error() string {
+	if l.err == nil {
+		return "nil"


Should this be return ""?

https://play.golang.org/p/gbFHmpOtdtJ

I went back and forth on that. In the rare occurrence in which it could be nil I thought it might be handy to be able to easily see that. Empty string so often disappears amongst other things.

Maybe it should be "<nil>" like the playground then?

I meant to put "", I guess I didn't paste the middle part in though.

When I go to edit your comment, I see you wrote <nil>, which gets escaped by Github! Cool. I'll make this change 😄

.....and done!

pkg/util/workerqueue/workerqueue_test.go

 	}
 }
+
+func TestIsDebugError(t *testing.T) {


a nit but this doesn't just test IsDebugError any longer, so it should be renamed to TestDebugError instead.
