# p-retry
|
|
|
|
> Retry a promise-returning or async function
|
|
|
|
It does exponential backoff and supports custom retry strategies for failed operations.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
npm install p-retry
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import pRetry, {AbortError} from 'p-retry';
|
|
|
|
const run = async () => {
|
|
const response = await fetch('https://sindresorhus.com/unicorn');
|
|
|
|
// Abort retrying if the resource doesn't exist
|
|
if (response.status === 404) {
|
|
throw new AbortError(response.statusText);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
return response.blob();
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
console.log(await pRetry(run, {retries: 5}));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
### pRetry(input, options?)
|
|
|
|
Returns a `Promise` that is fulfilled when calling `input` returns a fulfilled promise. If calling `input` returns a rejected promise, `input` is called again until the max retries are reached, it then rejects with the last rejection reason.
|
|
|
|
Does not retry on most `TypeErrors`, with the exception of network errors. This is done on a best case basis as different browsers have different [messages](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Fetch_API/Using_Fetch#Checking_that_the_fetch_was_successful) to indicate this. See [whatwg/fetch#526 (comment)](https://github.com/whatwg/fetch/issues/526#issuecomment-554604080)
|
|
|
|
#### input
|
|
|
|
Type: `Function`
|
|
|
|
Receives the number of attempts as the first argument and is expected to return a `Promise` or any value.
|
|
|
|
#### options
|
|
|
|
Type: `object`
|
|
|
|
##### onFailedAttempt(context)
|
|
|
|
Type: `Function`
|
|
|
|
Callback invoked on each failure. Receives a context object containing the error and retry state information.
|
|
|
|
The function is called _before_ `shouldConsumeRetry` and `shouldRetry`, for all errors _except_ `AbortError`.
|
|
|
|
If the function throws, all retries will be aborted and the original promise will reject with the thrown error.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import pRetry from 'p-retry';
|
|
|
|
const run = async () => {
|
|
const response = await fetch('https://sindresorhus.com/unicorn');
|
|
|
|
if (!response.ok) {
|
|
throw new Error(response.statusText);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
return response.json();
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
const result = await pRetry(run, {
|
|
onFailedAttempt: ({error, attemptNumber, retriesLeft, retriesConsumed}) => {
|
|
console.log(`Attempt ${attemptNumber} failed. ${retriesLeft} retries left. ${retriesConsumed} retries consumed.`);
|
|
// 1st request => Attempt 1 failed. 5 retries left. 0 retries consumed.
|
|
// 2nd request => Attempt 2 failed. 4 retries left. 1 retries consumed.
|
|
// …
|
|
},
|
|
retries: 5
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
console.log(result);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `onFailedAttempt` function can return a promise. For example, to add a [delay](https://github.com/sindresorhus/delay):
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import pRetry from 'p-retry';
|
|
import delay from 'delay';
|
|
|
|
const run = async () => { … };
|
|
|
|
const result = await pRetry(run, {
|
|
onFailedAttempt: async () => {
|
|
console.log('Waiting for 1 second before retrying');
|
|
await delay(1000);
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
##### shouldRetry(context)
|
|
|
|
Type: `Function`
|
|
|
|
Decide if a retry should occur based on context. Returning `true` triggers a retry, `false` aborts with the error.
|
|
|
|
The function is called _after_ `onFailedAttempt` and `shouldConsumeRetry`.
|
|
|
|
The function is _not_ called on `AbortError`, `TypeError` (except network errors), or if `retries` or `maxRetryTime` are exhausted.
|
|
|
|
If the function throws, all retries will be aborted and the original promise will reject with the thrown error.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import pRetry from 'p-retry';
|
|
|
|
const run = async () => { … };
|
|
|
|
const result = await pRetry(run, {
|
|
shouldRetry: ({error, attemptNumber, retriesLeft}) => !(error instanceof CustomError)
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the example above, the operation will be retried unless the error is an instance of `CustomError`.
|
|
|
|
##### shouldConsumeRetry(context)
|
|
|
|
Type: `Function`
|
|
|
|
Decide if this failure should consume a retry from the `retries` budget.
|
|
|
|
When `false` is returned, the failure will not consume a retry or increment backoff values, but is still subject to `maxRetryTime`.
|
|
|
|
The function is called _after_ `onFailedAttempt`, but before `shouldRetry`.
|
|
|
|
The function is _not_ called on `AbortError`.
|
|
|
|
If the function throws, all retries will be aborted and the original promise will reject with the thrown error.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import pRetry from 'p-retry';
|
|
|
|
const run = async () => { … };
|
|
|
|
const result = await pRetry(run, {
|
|
retries: 2,
|
|
shouldConsumeRetry: ({error, retriesLeft}) => !(error instanceof RateLimitError),
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the example above, `RateLimitError`s will not decrement the available `retries`.
|
|
|
|
##### retries
|
|
|
|
Type: `number`\
|
|
Default: `10`
|
|
|
|
The maximum amount of times to retry the operation.
|
|
|
|
##### factor
|
|
|
|
Type: `number`\
|
|
Default: `2`
|
|
|
|
The exponential factor to use.
|
|
|
|
##### minTimeout
|
|
|
|
Type: `number`\
|
|
Default: `1000`
|
|
|
|
The number of milliseconds before starting the first retry.
|
|
|
|
Set this to `0` to retry immediately with no delay.
|
|
|
|
##### maxTimeout
|
|
|
|
Type: `number`\
|
|
Default: `Infinity`
|
|
|
|
The maximum number of milliseconds between two retries.
|
|
|
|
##### randomize
|
|
|
|
Type: `boolean`\
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|
|
|
Randomizes the timeouts by multiplying with a factor between 1 and 2.
|
|
|
|
##### maxRetryTime
|
|
|
|
Type: `number`\
|
|
Default: `Infinity`
|
|
|
|
The maximum time (in milliseconds) that the retried operation is allowed to run.
|
|
|
|
Measured with a monotonic clock (`performance.now()`) so system clock adjustments do not affect the limit.
|
|
|
|
##### signal
|
|
|
|
Type: [`AbortSignal`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AbortSignal)
|
|
|
|
You can abort retrying using [`AbortController`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AbortController).
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import pRetry from 'p-retry';
|
|
|
|
const run = async () => { … };
|
|
const controller = new AbortController();
|
|
|
|
cancelButton.addEventListener('click', () => {
|
|
controller.abort(new Error('User clicked cancel button'));
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
try {
|
|
await pRetry(run, {signal: controller.signal});
|
|
} catch (error) {
|
|
console.log(error.message);
|
|
//=> 'User clicked cancel button'
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
##### unref
|
|
|
|
Type: `boolean`\
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|
|
|
Prevents retry timeouts from keeping the process alive.
|
|
|
|
Only affects platforms with a `.unref()` method on timeouts, such as Node.js.
|
|
|
|
### makeRetriable(function, options?)
|
|
|
|
Wrap a function so that each call is automatically retried on failure.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import {makeRetriable} from 'p-retry';
|
|
|
|
const fetchWithRetry = makeRetriable(fetch, {retries: 5});
|
|
|
|
const response = await fetchWithRetry('https://sindresorhus.com/unicorn');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### AbortError(message)
|
|
### AbortError(error)
|
|
|
|
Abort retrying and reject the promise. No callbacks functions will be called.
|
|
|
|
### message
|
|
|
|
Type: `string`
|
|
|
|
An error message.
|
|
|
|
### error
|
|
|
|
Type: `Error`
|
|
|
|
A custom error.
|
|
|
|
## Tip
|
|
|
|
You can pass arguments to the function being retried by wrapping it in an inline arrow function:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import pRetry from 'p-retry';
|
|
|
|
const run = async emoji => {
|
|
// …
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
// Without arguments
|
|
await pRetry(run, {retries: 5});
|
|
|
|
// With arguments
|
|
await pRetry(() => run('🦄'), {retries: 5});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## FAQ
|
|
|
|
### How do I mock timers when testing with this package?
|
|
|
|
The package uses `setTimeout` and `clearTimeout` from the global scope, so you can use the [Node.js test timer mocking](https://nodejs.org/api/test.html#class-mocktimers) or a package like [`sinon`](https://github.com/sinonjs/sinon).
|
|
|
|
### How do I stop retries when the process receives SIGINT (Ctrl+C)?
|
|
|
|
Use an [`AbortController`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AbortController) to signal cancellation on SIGINT, and pass its `signal` to `pRetry`:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import pRetry from 'p-retry';
|
|
|
|
const controller = new AbortController();
|
|
|
|
process.once('SIGINT', () => {
|
|
controller.abort(new Error('SIGINT received'));
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
try {
|
|
await pRetry(run, {signal: controller.signal});
|
|
} catch (error) {
|
|
console.log('Retry stopped due to:', error.message);
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The package does not handle process signals itself to avoid global side effects.
