Module to submit an HTTP request with configurable retry logic for failed attempts

npm install http-retry

This module is currently under development

{
    "reqOptions":  url || {options object},
    "successCodes": [],
    "failureNoRetryCodes": [],
    "retry" : {}
}

• reqOptions - request options as defined in https://github.com/mikeal/request
• successCodes - an array of http response codes identified by calling function as the only codes considered successful; requests, for which the codes are returned, will NOT be retried
• failureNoRetryCodes - an array of http response codes identified by calling function as failure codes for which NO retries will be attempted
• retry - retry options as defined in https://github.com/tim-kos/node-retry

{
    "response": {http.IncomingMessage object},
    "body": {response body},
    "retryFailure" : true | false
}

• response - response statusCode, headers, etc.
• body - response body
• retryFailure - set to true if retry attempts failed; default is false

    "reqOptions": {
        url: 'http://localhost:3001/ecrud/v1/core/electronicCaseFiles?query=%7B%22case:ElectronicCaseFile.case:CommonData.nc:Person.nc:PersonSSNIdentification.nc:IdentificationID%22:%22333428888%22%7D&sort=%7B%22$natural%22:-1%7D&limit=1',
