# GenRetry

GenRetry is a module for retrying Elixir functions,
with configurable delay and backoff characteristics.


## Example

    my_background_function = fn ->
      :ok = try_to_send_tps_reports()
    end
    GenRetry.retry(my_function, retries: 10, delay: 10_000)

    my_future_function = fn ->
      {:ok, val} = get_val_from_flaky_network_service()
      val
    end
    t = GenRetry.task(my_future_function, retries: 3)
    my_val = Task.await(t)  # may raise exception
