Adamant-run is a project mainly written in Clojure, based on the EPL-1.0 license.
A Clojure library to adamantly (or stubbornly) try to run a function
A Clojure library to adamantly (or stubbornly) try to run a function.
** Motivation
This library shall help you run functions which may encounter errors or timeout with automated retries. Situations where this might be helpful contain communication with a remote service, which may be unavailable, or dealing with asynchronous file transfer, when you are waiting for a file to show up.
** Usage
You can pass any clojure function to adamant-run along with its
arguments and some finetuning options to control how adamant-run will
run your function.
The easiest case is calling a function with no arguments using the
defaults of adamant-run:
(adamant-run (fn [] "OK"))
The documentation of the function adamant-run contains a list of keyword options.
** Inspiration
The whole idea for this project comes from [[https://github.com/joegallo/robert-bruce][Robert Bruce]] written by Joe Gallo. So, kudos to Joe for his nice interface!
