Overwrite Retryconditions

[wasserholz]

First of all, thanks for this great rest client.

Currently it is not possible to overwrite retry conditions on a request

Use case: Most requests to a specific API should retry on any error except for one endpoint. For that one endpoint I am creating an object and the endpoint returns 400 with an app error code specific to that endpoint. As the object exists, it is fine to not retry.

I have now a client wide retry on error, AddRetryAfterErrorCondition(), but for that one request I want it do use my customer retry function only. This would only work if I manually remove the client wide retry condition or use a new client for this specific request.

It would be great to be able to overwrite client wide configuration in each request, so it is possible to avoid work-arounds.

For now I have encapsulated the rest client into a wrapper type with receiver functions, which then add the retry conditions on each request to avoid repetition and client wide config.

@wasserholz Thanks for reaching out. In the upcoming Resty v3, retry controls will be added to the Request level to prevent retrying on particular requests; refer to #752. Can you elaborate on the overwrite condition? I do not understand. Typically, conditions will not occur when you turn off the retry on request.
