http-retry

http(s) is great, but a not so well kept secret of it is that requests may fail for different reasons. In many cases they're out of the control of the client and a simple retry can fix it. This is what this library is doing, and nothing else. Written for clj-http

Usage

Given this request:

(ns my-app.core
  (:require [clj-http.client :as client]))

(client/get "http://example.com"
            {:headers {:foo ["bar" "baz"], :eggplant "quux"}})

If you want to retry it 3 times, change it to this:

(ns my-app.core
  (:require [clj-http.client :as client]
            [billfront.http-retry :refer [with-retries]]))

(with-retries 3
              client/get
              "http://example.com"
              {:headers {:foo ["bar" "baz"], :eggplant "quux"}})

Deploy a new version

  1. Update the version in the pom.xml
  2. Commit this change: git commit -p
  3. Tag the release and push it and the rest: git tag v`grep -oP '(?<=^ <version>).*?(?=</version>)' pom.xml` && git push --tags && git push
  4. Run clojure -M:jar
  5. Run CLOJARS_USERNAME=billfront CLOJARS_PASSWORD=<clojars token> clojure -M:deploy. Get a token from Clojars dashboard
