RetryPolicy interface

Interface describing a retry policy object. Retry policies are composed of 2 things

An algorithm that computes the next time to retry based on the current number or retries.
An error filter that decides, based on the type of error received, whether a retry should happen or not.

Those 2 components hide behind 2 method calls described in this interface.

Properties

nextRetryTimeout	Computes the interval to wait before retrying at each new retry tentative.
shouldRetry	Based on the error passed as argument, determines if an error is transient and if the operation should be retried or not.

Computes the interval to wait before retrying at each new retry tentative.

nextRetryTimeout: (retryCount: number, isThrottled: boolean) => number

(retryCount: number, isThrottled: boolean) => number

Based on the error passed as argument, determines if an error is transient and if the operation should be retried or not.

shouldRetry: (error: Error) => boolean

(error: Error) => boolean
