Easy to use retry decorator.

Step side

It’s fork: https://github.com/invl/retry

My changes had started from version 0.9.3 (see ChangeLog)

Features

  • No external dependency (stdlib only).

  • (Optionally) Preserve function signatures (pip install decorator).

  • Original traceback, easy to debug.

Installation

$ pip install retry-sh

API

retry decorator

Various retrying logic can be achieved by combination of arguments.

Examples

from retry import retry

@retry()
def make_trouble():
    '''Retry until succeed'''

@retry(ZeroDivisionError, tries=3, delay=2)
def make_trouble():
    '''
    Retry on ZeroDivisionError,
    raise error after 3 attempts, sleep 2 seconds between attempts.
    '''

@retry((ValueError, TypeError), delay=1, backoff=2)
def make_trouble():
    '''
    Retry on ValueError or TypeError,
    sleep 1, 2, 4, 8, ... seconds between attempts.
    '''

@retry((ValueError, TypeError), delay=1, backoff=2, max_delay=4)
def make_trouble():
    '''
    Retry on ValueError or TypeError,
    sleep 1, 2, 4, 4, ... seconds between attempts.
    '''

@retry(ValueError, delay=1, jitter=1)
def make_trouble():
    '''
    Retry on ValueError,
    sleep 1, 2, 3, 4, ... seconds between attempts.
    '''

# If you enable logging, you can get warnings like 'ValueError, retrying in
# 1 seconds'
if __name__ == '__main__':
    import logging
    logging.basicConfig()
    make_trouble()

retry_call

This is very similar to the decorator, except that it takes a function and its arguments as parameters. The use case behind it is to be able to dynamically adjust the retry arguments.

import requests

from retry.api import retry_call


def make_trouble(service, info=None):
    if not info:
        info = ''
    r = requests.get(service + info)
    return r.text


def what_is_my_ip(approach=None):
    if approach == "optimistic":
        tries = 1
    elif approach == "conservative":
        tries = 3
    else:
        # skeptical
        tries = -1
    result = retry_call(
        make_trouble,
        fargs=["http://ipinfo.io/"],
        fkwargs={"info": "ip"},
        tries=tries
    )
    print(result)

what_is_my_ip("conservative")
