This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@octokit/plugin-retry) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Retries requests for server 4xx/5xx responses except 400, 401, 403, 404, and 422.

Usage

Browsers

Browsers	Load `@octokit/plugin-retry` and `@octokit/core` (or core-compatible module) directly from cdn.skypack.dev <script type="module"> import { Octokit } from "https://cdn.skypack.dev/@octokit/core"; import { retry } from "https://cdn.skypack.dev/@octokit/plugin-retry"; </script>
Node	Install with `npm install @octokit/core @octokit/plugin-retry`. Optionally replace `@octokit/core` with a core-compatible module const { Octokit } = require("@octokit/core"); const { retry } = require("@octokit/plugin-retry");

Load @octokit/plugin-retry and @octokit/core (or core-compatible module) directly from cdn.skypack.dev

<script type="module">
  import { Octokit } from "https://cdn.skypack.dev/@octokit/core";
  import { retry } from "https://cdn.skypack.dev/@octokit/plugin-retry";
</script>

Node

Install with npm install @octokit/core @octokit/plugin-retry. Optionally replace @octokit/core with a core-compatible module

const { Octokit } = require("@octokit/core");
const { retry } = require("@octokit/plugin-retry");

const MyOctokit = Octokit.plugin(retry);
const octokit = new MyOctokit({ auth: "secret123" });

// retries request up to 3 times in case of a 500 response
octokit.request("/").catch((error) => {
  if (error.request.request.retryCount) {
    console.log(
      `request failed after ${error.request.request.retryCount} retries`
    );
  }

  console.error(error);
});

To override the default doNotRetry list:

const octokit = new MyOctokit({
  auth: "secret123",
  retry: {
    doNotRetry: [
      /* List of HTTP 4xx/5xx status codes */
    ],
  },
});

To override the number of retries:

const octokit = new MyOctokit({
  auth: "secret123",
  request: { retries: 1 },
});

You can manually ask for retries for any request by passing { request: { retries: numRetries, retryAfter: delayInSeconds }}. Note that the doNotRetry option from the constructor is ignored in this case, requests will be retried no matter their response code.

octokit
  .request("/", { request: { retries: 1, retryAfter: 1 } })
  .catch((error) => {
    if (error.request.request.retryCount) {
      console.log(
        `request failed after ${error.request.request.retryCount} retries`
      );
    }

    console.error(error);
  });

Pass { retry: { enabled: false } } to disable this plugin.
