Retry with backoff without effort.
Hey! The library seems pretty cool! I am new to rust, trying to implement a retry strategy on a small rest API project. Could you help me understand how to...
I'm interesting in using `backon` for retrying HTTP requests. I'd like to handle the `retry-after` HTTP header, where the server essentially can hint at which point it'd like you to...
When using the crate in a project targeting wasm32-unknown-unknown, the following needs to be added to the project's `cargo.toml`: `instant = { version = "0.1.12", features = ["wasm-bindgen"] }` Otherwise...
If I'm seeing this correctly, it should be possible to have unlimited retries in the implementation, but there seems no way of doing that via the public API, because the...
From [reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/10wodyu/comment/j7v1l93/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3): > Does ExponentialBackoff's max_times and max_delay meets your need? No. First, the documentation could be better. "If max times is reaching" is unclear and ungrammatical. I might say...
Add support to allow fetching external statuses, such as the `Retry-After` header in HTTP responses.
Users often wish to retry a request by adhering to the `Retry-After` header in HTTP responses, as demonstrated in https://github.com/Xuanwo/backon/issues/63. Maybe we can provide better ways for this feature?
Sometimes user want a max duration for exponential backoff instead of reaching the max times.
`backon` is great for retrying a single async function, but it's a bit clumsy to retry 100 functions. Perhaps we could provide a macro so users can add `#[backon]` to...
Backon is useful for a single function, but it's cumbersome to repeatedly write the same `backoff`, `when`, `notify`, and `sleep` functions. We should explore a way for users to define...
