retry

Retry an async function when it fails

535 bytes

Usage

The retry function runs an async function and retries it if it fails. You can specify how many times to retry, how long to wait between retries, and whether to use exponential backoff.

Options

  • times is the maximum number of times to retry (default: 3)
  • delay is milliseconds to sleep between retries
  • backoff is a function called to calculate the delay between retries
    • It receives the attempt number (starting with 1) and returns the delay in milliseconds.
  • signal (v12.3.0+) allows you to pass an AbortController.signal to interrupt the retry operation

Interrupting

If a signal is passed, the retry operation can be interrupted. When the signal is aborted, retry’s promise will reject with a DOMException (even in Node.js) with the message This operation was aborted and name AbortError.

import * as
import _
_
from 'radashi'
const
const abortController: AbortController
abortController
= new
var AbortController: new () => AbortController

A controller object that allows you to abort one or more DOM requests as and when desired.

AbortController

const
const signal: AbortSignal
signal
=
const abortController: AbortController
abortController
.
AbortController.signal: AbortSignal

Returns the AbortSignal object associated with this object.

var console: Console

The console module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.

The module exports two specific components:

  • A Console class with methods such as console.log(), console.error() and console.warn() that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
  • A global console instance configured to write to process.stdout and process.stderr. The global console can be used without importing the node:console module.

Warning: The global console object's methods are neither consistently synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the note on process I/O for more information.

Example using the global console:

console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
// Error: Whoops, something bad happened
// at [eval]:5:15
// at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
// at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)
// at node:internal/process/execution:77:19
// at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
// at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
// at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3
const name = 'Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr

Example using the Console class:

const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);
myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err
const name = 'Will Robinson';
myConsole.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to err

@seesource

console
.
Console.log(message?: any, ...optionalParams: any[]): void

Prints to stdout with newline. Multiple arguments can be passed, with the first used as the primary message and all additional used as substitution values similar to printf(3) (the arguments are all passed to util.format()).

const count = 5;
console.log('count: %d', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout
console.log('count:', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout

See util.format() for more information.
