# retry_macro
A library which provides macros that automatically re-execute both synchronous and asynchronous (tokio/async-std with sleep) functions upon failure.
### Feature flags
- Enable `features = ["tokio"]` if you want to use the `retry_async_sleep` macro.
- Enable `features = ["async-std"]` if you want to use the `retry_async_sleep` macro with async-std.
## Examples
Here are two simple examples using both the synchronous and asynchronous macros. Note that all function inputs must be **bounded to an identifier** (variable).
### Synchronous
```rust
use retry_macro::{retry, retry_sleep, RetryError};
fn can_fail(input: &str) -> Result<i32, std::num::ParseIntError> {
input.parse::<i32>()
}
fn main() {
// Retry the can_fail function 5 times with the input "not_a_number"
let var = "not_a_number";
let res = retry!(5, can_fail, var);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().retries.len(), 5);
// Retry the can_fail function 5 times with the input "not_a_number", sleep for 100 milliseconds between retries
let var = "not_a_number";
let res = retry_sleep!(5, 100, can_fail, var);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().retries.len(), 5);
}
```
### Asynchronous (with tokio)
```rust
use retry_macro::{retry_async, retry_async_sleep, RetryError};
async fn can_fail_async(input: &str) -> Result<i32, std::num::ParseIntError> {
tokio::time::sleep(tokio::time::Duration::from_millis(1)).await;
input.parse::<i32>()
}
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
// Retry the can_fail function 5 times with the input "not_a_number"
let var = "not_a_number";
let res = retry_async!(5, can_fail_async, var);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().retries.len(), 5);
// Retry the can_fail function 5 times with the input "not_a_number", sleep for 100 milliseconds between retries
let var = "not_a_number";
let res = retry_async_sleep!(5, 100, can_fail_async, var);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().retries.len(), 5);
}
```
### Asynchronous (with async-std)
```rust
use retry_macro::{retry_async, retry_async_sleep, RetryError};
async fn can_fail_async(input: &str) -> Result<i32, std::num::ParseIntError> {
async_std::task::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_millis(1)).await;
input.parse::<i32>()
}
#[async_std::main]
async fn main() {
// Retry the can_fail function 5 times with the input "not_a_number"
let var = "not_a_number";
let res = retry_async!(5, can_fail_async, var);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().retries.len(), 5);
// Retry the can_fail function 5 times with the input "not_a_number", sleep for 100 milliseconds between retries
let var = "not_a_number";
let res = retry_async_sleep!(5, 100, can_fail_async, var);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().retries.len(), 5);
}
```
