JarCastingbackoff-promise
An exponential backoff for promises
Example 1
var i = 0,
Backoff = require('backoff-promise'),
backoff = new Backoff();
var myPromise = function () {
return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
if (i++ < 5) {
reject(new Error('transient-error'));
} else {
resolve('foo');
}
});
};
return backoff.run(function () {
return myPromise();
});
Example 2: Different types of errors
var i = 0,
Backoff = require('backoff-promise'),
backoff = new Backoff();
var myPromise = function () {
return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
if (i++ < 3) {
reject(new Error('transient-error'));
} else {
reject(new Error('permanent-error'));
}
});
};
var shouldRetry = function (err) {
// Permanent error? If so, then stop retrying
if (err.message === 'permanent-error') {
throw err;
}
};
return backoff.run(function () {
return myPromise();
}, shouldRetry).catch(function (err) {
// err.message = 'transient-error'
});
API
