The `retryablehttp` package provides a familiar HTTP client interface with
|
||
|
|
automatic retries and exponential backoff. It is a thin wrapper over the
|
||
|
|
standard `net/http` client library and exposes nearly the same public API. This
|
||
|
|
makes `retryablehttp` very easy to drop into existing programs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`retryablehttp` performs automatic retries under certain conditions. Mainly, if
|
||
|
|
an error is returned by the client (connection errors, etc.), or if a 500-range
|
||
|
|
response code is received (except 501), then a retry is invoked after a wait
|
||
|
|
period. Otherwise, the response is returned and left to the caller to
|
||
|
|
interpret.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The main difference from `net/http` is that requests which take a request body
|
||
|
|
(POST/PUT et. al) can have the body provided in a number of ways (some more or
|
||
|
|
less efficient) that allow "rewinding" the request body if the initial request
|
||
|
|
fails so that the full request can be attempted again. See the
|
||
|
|
[godoc](http://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/go-retryablehttp) for more
|
||
|
|
details.

Version 0.6.0 and before are compatible with Go prior to 1.12. From 0.6.1 onward, Go 1.12+ is required.

|
Example Use
|
||
|
|
===========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Using this library should look almost identical to what you would do with
|
||
|
|
`net/http`. The most simple example of a GET request is shown below:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```go
|
||
|
|
resp, err := retryablehttp.Get("/foo")
|
||
|
|
if err != nil {
|
||
|
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The returned response object is an `*http.Response`, the same thing you would
|
||
|
|
usually get from `net/http`. Had the request failed one or more times, the above
|
||
|
|
call would block and retry with exponential backoff.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Getting a stdlib `*http.Client` with retries
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It's possible to convert a `*retryablehttp.Client` directly to a `*http.Client`.
|
||
|
|
This makes use of retryablehttp broadly applicable with minimal effort. Simply
|
||
|
|
configure a `*retryablehttp.Client` as you wish, and then call `StandardClient()`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```go
|
||
|
|
retryClient := retryablehttp.NewClient()
|
||
|
|
retryClient.RetryMax = 10
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
standardClient := retryClient.StandardClient() // *http.Client
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
