Dependency on awk

Open kadwanev opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

The shell implementation requires the ability to do floating point calculations for calculating exponential backoff. Out of the workable options, I found only awk available in the minified system images I was working with. I suppose this dependency could cause problems for some. Should implementations for others be included? Others that could work: python, ruby, bc, dc

Please check https://github.com/kadwanev/retry/pull/12 I've added built-in bash, bc and perl to the mix of calculators.
