Probably you already faced a problem when an operation fails and you need to retry it in a certain amount of time or want to try it few more times before giving up and fire an error. A simple solution would be to use functionality similar to the below piece of code:
async function retryFunction(func, timeout = 100, factor = 2, retries = 4) {
try {
return await func();
} catch (err) {
if (retries < 1) {
throw err;
}
logger.warn(`Retrying function in ${timeout / 1000} seconds`);
await sleep(timeout);
return retryFunction(func, timeout * factor, factor, retries - 1);
}
};
