backon: Maybe the most elegant retry library ever
Hello, everyone! I have built an elegant retry library: backon today. I share here to get some feedback about this crate.
Retry a blocking function:
use anyhow::Result;
use backon::BlockingRetryable;
use backon::ExponentialBuilder;
fn fetch() -> Result<String> {
Ok("hello, world!".to_string())
}
fn main() -> Result<()> {
let content = fetch.retry(ExponentialBuilder::default()).call()?;
println!("fetch succeeded: {}", content);
Ok(())
}
Retry an async function:
use anyhow::Result;
use backon::ExponentialBackoff;
use backon::Retryable;
async fn fetch() -> Result<String> {
Ok(reqwest::get("https://www.rust-lang.org").await?.text().await?)
}
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<()> {
let content = fetch.retry(ExponentialBackoff::default()).await?;
println!("fetch succeeded: {}", content);
Ok(())
}
