jsonapi-http-retry

Retry failed jsonapi requests with retry policies.

It is greatly inspired by the Retry package but aims to handle http requests from the jsonapi-http package.

With this package you can add retry policies to jsonapi-http requests errors.
You can choose specific errors that will trigger a retry: unauthenticated error, network error, etc…

You can also send Cmds between 2 failures with the Http.CmdRetry module.

Getting Started

Here is an example retrying requests 5 times maximum with a constant interval between retries, only for unauthenticated and unauthorized errors:

import Http.Request
import Http.Retry
import Json.Encode
import JsonApi.Decode
request : Cmd Msg
request =
    Request.request
        { url = "http://endpoint"
        , headers = []
        , body = Json.Encode.object []
        , documentDecoder = JsonApi.Decode.resources "resource-type" entityDecoder
        }
        |> Http.Retry.with
            [ Http.Retry.maxRetries 5
            , Http.Retry.exponentialBackoff { interval = 500, maxInterval = 3000 }
            ]
            [ Http.Retry.onUnauthenticatedStatus
            , Http.Retry.onUnauthorizedStatus
            ]
        |> Task.perform OnTaskCompleted
