Retrying is an Apache 2.0 licensed general-purpose retrying library, written in
|
|
Python, to simplify the task of adding retry behavior to just about anything.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The simplest use case is retrying a flaky function whenever an Exception occurs
|
|
until a value is returned.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
import random
|
|
from retrying import retry
|
|
|
|
@retry
|
|
def do_something_unreliable():
|
|
if random.randint(0, 10) > 1:
|
|
raise IOError("Broken sauce, everything is hosed!!!111one")
|
|
else:
|
|
return "Awesome sauce!"
|
|
|
|
print do_something_unreliable()
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
- Generic Decorator API
|
|
- Specify stop condition (i.e. limit by number of attempts)
|
|
- Specify wait condition (i.e. exponential backoff sleeping between attempts)
|
|
- Customize retrying on Exceptions
|
|
- Customize retrying on expected returned result
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
To install retrying, simply:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ pip install retrying
|
|
|
|
Or, if you absolutely must:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ easy_install retrying
|
|
|
|
But, you might regret that later.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Examples
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
As you saw above, the default behavior is to retry forever without waiting.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
@retry
|
|
def never_give_up_never_surrender():
|
|
print "Retry forever ignoring Exceptions, don't wait between retries"
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's be a little less persistent and set some boundaries, such as the number of attempts before giving up.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
@retry(stop_max_attempt_number=7)
|
|
def stop_after_7_attempts():
|
|
print "Stopping after 7 attempts"
|
|
|
|
We don't have all day, so let's set a boundary for how long we should be retrying stuff.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
@retry(stop_max_delay=10000)
|
|
def stop_after_10_s():
|
|
print "Stopping after 10 seconds"
|
|
|
|
Most things don't like to be polled as fast as possible, so let's just wait 2 seconds between retries.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
@retry(wait_fixed=2000)
|
|
def wait_2_s():
|
|
print "Wait 2 second between retries"
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some things perform best with a bit of randomness injected.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
@retry(wait_random_min=1000, wait_random_max=2000)
|
|
def wait_random_1_to_2_s():
|
|
print "Randomly wait 1 to 2 seconds between retries"
|
|
|
|
Then again, it's hard to beat exponential backoff when retrying distributed services and other remote endpoints.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
@retry(wait_exponential_multiplier=1000, wait_exponential_max=10000)
|
|
def wait_exponential_1000():
|
|
print "Wait 2^x * 1000 milliseconds between each retry, up to 10 seconds, then 10 seconds afterwards"
|
|
|
|
|
|
We have a few options for dealing with retries that raise specific or general exceptions, as in the cases here.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
def retry_if_io_error(exception):
|
|
"""Return True if we should retry (in this case when it's an IOError), False otherwise"""
|
|
return isinstance(exception, IOError)
|
|
|
|
@retry(retry_on_exception=retry_if_io_error)
|
|
def might_io_error():
|
|
print "Retry forever with no wait if an IOError occurs, raise any other errors"
|
|
|
|
@retry(retry_on_exception=retry_if_io_error, wrap_exception=True)
|
|
def only_raise_retry_error_when_not_io_error():
|
|
print "Retry forever with no wait if an IOError occurs, raise any other errors wrapped in RetryError"
|
|
|
|
We can also use the result of the function to alter the behavior of retrying.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
def retry_if_result_none(result):
|
|
"""Return True if we should retry (in this case when result is None), False otherwise"""
|
|
return result is None
|
|
|
|
@retry(retry_on_result=retry_if_result_none)
|
|
def might_return_none():
|
|
print "Retry forever ignoring Exceptions with no wait if return value is None"
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any combination of stop, wait, etc. is also supported to give you the freedom to mix and match.
