Hey All,

I'm trying to build a library that exposes manifold streams for data 
producing applications. The intention
would be for these apps to s/put! to a sink stream returned by the producer 
function. However, I need to
take the value that is put in and pipe it into some other function before I 
know whether there is an error
and if there is an error, I'd like to propagate it back to the caller.

I understand that the value returned by put! is a deferred, and how to set 
the error state of a deferred but I
don't understand how I can arrange for the deferred to be manipulated 
downstream of where it has been
taken off the stream.

(defn producer []
  (let [in (s/stream)]

    (s/consume (fn [msg]
                 (d/future
                   (prn "oops, going to error now")
                   (throw (Exception. (str msg))))) in)
    
    in))
           
@(s/put! (producer) 42)

As written, you get a success response even though an exception was 
triggered by the function that consumes
the "in" stream. Is it possible to re-write this so that the exception 
bubbles up to where the put! is deref'd?

Cheers,
Andy
