Question

Need to update Retry version -- linear backoff is exponential in the current one

Closed this issue 6 years ago · 2 comments

As with the title, the Retry library did not properly implement linear backoff.
It should be fixed by updating to the latest release. Thanks!

Hi @DarkMarmot , thanks for reporting. I'll look into updating the retry library to the latest version.

There are some backwards-incompatible changes in recent versions that make this somewhat non-trivial, so I'll need to make some changes to the way that external_service uses retry.

I have upgraded retry to version 0.11.2 and published a new 0.9.0 version of external_service to hex.pm.
