Support retry backoff in Zeebe 1.3 #248

Closed jwulf closed 2 years ago

jwulf commented 2 years ago

Zeebe 1.3 will support backoff retry for failed tasks. See here: https://github.com/camunda-cloud/zeebe/issues/5629.

The complete.fail() method of the job worker callback will probably need extending with an optional backoff time parameter.

From version 8.0.0 of the package, used with a 8.0.0 Zeebe broker, you can specify to the broker an optional backoff for the reactivation of the job, like this:

job.fail({errorMessage: 'Triggering a retry with a two second back-off', retryBackOff: 2000, retries: 1})
