Use WithExponentialRetry with EventGridPublisherBuilder

[pim-simons]

Description According to the documentation I should be able to use the WithExponentialRetry with the EventGridPublisherBuilder, see: https://eventgrid.arcus-azure.net/features/publishing-events/#resilient-publishing

However this does not seem to be implemented:

I tried using both Arcus.EventGrid.All and Arcus.EventGrid.Publishing but unfortunately no luck. What am I doing wrong?

It should be available in the Arcus.EventGrid.Publishing namespace.

Ah I understand from looking at the unittests, I had to use the interface IEventGridPublisherBuilderWithExponentialRetry like so

private IEventGridPublisherBuilderWithExponentialRetry CreateEventGridBuilder(string topicEndpoint, string endpointKey)
{
    return EventGridPublisherBuilder
        .ForTopic(topicEndpoint)
        .UsingAuthenticationKey(endpointKey);
}

And then refer to that, that wasn't immediately clear to me. But it's working now, thanks!

@pim-simons yeah, we tried to make a sort of 'guided builder' where you would via intelisense be guided towards the next available option. Something you see often in Microsoft-related frameworks too. Guess isn't as obvious as we thought. ☺️ A good lesson for us.

Let me take a look if I can change the documentation a little so that it's a bit clearer maybe, will create a PR for that

Ok, great initiative! 👍 Thx

Well it looks like this was just an issue of the problem being between the chair and keyboard. I took another look at it and honestly the documentation is fine, it was me not following it the right way (I was trying to place the WithExponentialRetry before UsingAuthenticationKey which was the issue. My bad 🤦🏻‍♂️
