What is axios-retry?

The axios-retry npm package is a utility that allows you to automatically retry failed HTTP requests made using the Axios library. It is particularly useful for dealing with transient errors or unstable network conditions. It provides several options to customize the retry behavior, such as the number of retries, retry delay, and the conditions for which requests should be retried.

What are axios-retry's main functionalities?

Automatic Retries

Automatically retries a failed HTTP request up to a specified number of times.

const axios = require('axios');
const axiosRetry = require('axios-retry');

axiosRetry(axios, { retries: 3 });

axios.get('https://example.com').catch(error => {
  console.error('Request failed:', error);
});

Custom Retry Conditions

Allows you to specify custom conditions for when a request should be retried, such as on certain HTTP status codes or network errors.

const axios = require('axios');
const axiosRetry = require('axios-retry');

axiosRetry(axios, {
  retryCondition: (error) => {
    // Retry on any network error, or 5xx status codes
    return axiosRetry.isNetworkOrIdempotentRequestError(error) || error.response.status === 503;
  }
});

Exponential Backoff

Implements an exponential backoff strategy for the delay between retries, which can help to avoid overwhelming the server.

const axios = require('axios');
const axiosRetry = require('axios-retry');

axiosRetry(axios, {
  retries: 5,
  retryDelay: (retryCount) => {
    return axiosRetry.exponentialDelay(retryCount);
  }
});

Retry on Idempotent Requests Only

Configures the retry mechanism to only retry idempotent requests, which are requests that can be repeated without causing additional side effects.

const axios = require('axios');
const axiosRetry = require('axios-retry');

axiosRetry(axios, {
  retries: 3,
  shouldResetTimeout: true,
  retryCondition: axiosRetry.isIdempotentRequestError
});
