Backoff

Package: flyte

Exponential backoff policy applied between user retries.

The delay before the n-th retry (0-indexed) is::

min(base * factor**n, cap)

Parameters

        
    
class Backoff(
    base: datetime.timedelta,
    factor: float,
    cap: typing.Optional[datetime.timedelta],
)

Parameter	Type	Description
`base`	`datetime.timedelta`	Initial delay before the first retry. Must be >= 0.
`factor`	`float`	Per-retry multiplier. `1.0` yields constant delay (`base` for every retry); `2.0` doubles each time. Must be >= 1.0.
`cap`	`typing.Optional[datetime.timedelta]`	Upper bound on the computed delay. Required when `factor > 1` to prevent unbounded growth. Must be >= 0 when set.

Method	Description
`compute_delay()`	Returns the delay for the n-th retry (0-indexed).

        
    
def compute_delay(
    n: int,
) -> datetime.timedelta

Returns the delay for the n-th retry (0-indexed).

Used by the local controller to pace local retries; the remote leasor applies the same formula.

Parameter	Type	Description
`n`	`int`
