A tiny Node.js library that wraps async operations with automatic retry logic, including exponential backoff and a bail mechanism to abort retries on non-retryable errors. It delegates timeout/retry options to node-retry and returns a Promise.
Use cases
- retry failed http requests with exponential backoff
- retry async operations in nodejs
- stop retrying on specific errors like 403
- add retry logic to fetch calls
- configure retry timeouts and attempt limits
When to choose
- you need simple promise-based retries for async code in Node.js
- you want exponential backoff with configurable timeouts
- you need to bail out of retries for non-retryable errors
When to avoid
- you need retries in the browser without a Node environment
- you need circuit breakers, rate limiting, or full resilience patterns beyond retrying
- your project is not JavaScript/Node.js
