Rxjs-retry-delay NPM

RxJS-retry-delay operator for rxjs@^6.0.0

RxJS retry pipeable operator that supports delay and max attempts strategy

Prerequisites

rxjs: ^6.0.0

Installation and Usage

npm install rxjs-retry-delay

Basic usage with default values:

import { ajax } from 'rxjs/ajax';
import { retryWithDelay } from 'rxjs-retry-delay';

function getUserById(id) {
  return ajax.getJSON(`https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users/${id}`)
    .pipe(retryWithDelay());
}

Example above will retry 3 times with interval of 1s

function getUserById(id) {
  return ajax.getJSON(`https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users/${id}`).pipe(
    retryWithDelay({
      delay: 1000,
      maxRetryAttempts: 5,
      scalingFactor: 2
    })
  );
}

Example above will retry after 1s, 2s, 4s, 8s, 16s

In excludedStatusCodes we can pass response statuses after which we don't want to retry

function getUserById(id) {
  return ajax.getJSON(`https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users/${id}`).pipe(
    retryWithDelay({
      delay: 1000,
      maxRetryAttempts: 10,
      scalingFactor: 2,
      excludedStatusCodes: [500]
    })
  );
}

In example above, when response status is 500 it will throw error immediately.
