README
Retry Loop is widely used concept which can be easily explained with "retry on failure and give up after several retries".
Installation
composer require enl/retry-loop
Usage
For example, we need to push some data into remote service with the following pseudocode:
$response = $serviceClient->push($uri, $data);
But what if this remove service is temporarily down or network connection is unstable in this particular moment?
The common solution is to use try-catch
. But what about several retries?
This code looks much better and does the trick:
$loop = new RetryLoop($retries = 5); $response = $loop->run(function() use ($serviceClient, $uri, $data) { return $serviceClient->push($uri, $data); });
Give up on some exceptions
Sometimes, you need to give up on several exceptions, for example, if your client throws 'BadRequestException', you should give up trying to push the data. In order to achieve this, you can specify second parameter for RetryLoop
constructor:
$loop = new RetryLoop($retries = 5, $giveUpAt = [BadRequestException::class]); $response = $loop->run(function() use ($serviceClient, $uri, $data) { return $serviceClient->push($uri, $data); });
In case of BadRequestException
, RetryLoop
will throw LoopFailed
exception with actual exception as previous.
Before Retry hook
If you need to perform some action before retry (logging, reconnection, whatever you need), just use $beforeRetry
parameter:
$loop = new RetryLoop($retries = 5, $giveUpAt = [BadRequestException::class], function($e) { $this->log('info', 'Exception caught by retry loop, retrying: '.$e->getMessage()); }); $response = $loop->run(function() use ($serviceClient, $uri, $data) { return $serviceClient->push($uri, $data); });
RetryLoop is immutable!
RetryLoop class itself is immutable and does not store any internal state except given constructor parameters, so that you can easily reuse single loop instance for several retries, if it is necessary
Builder
Moreover, there is a LoopBuilder
that provides fluent interface for loop building:
$loop = RetryLoop::builder ->retries(5) ->giveUpAt(BadRequestException::class) ->giveUpAt(SomeOtherException::class) ->giveUpAt([YetAnotherException::class]) ->beforeRetry(function() { sleep(5); }) ->get(); // or just `run` and get result if builder is not needed after that.
