Integration
- got:
A standalone library that does not depend on other libraries, providing a clean and modern API for making HTTP requests with built-in retry support.
- axios-retry:
Integrates directly with Axios, allowing you to use its existing configuration and features while adding retry capabilities seamlessly.
- retry-axios:
An extension of Axios that adds retry functionality, allowing for more complex retry strategies like exponential backoff.
- requestretry:
Enhances the request library by adding retry capabilities, making it suitable for projects that still use request and want to implement retries easily.
- node-fetch-retry:
Built on top of node-fetch, it allows you to leverage the simplicity of node-fetch while adding retry logic with minimal overhead.
- superagent-retry:
Enhances Superagent with retry capabilities, making it easy to add retries to existing Superagent requests.
Configuration Options
- got:
Provides extensive configuration options, including retry strategies based on response status codes, request errors, and customizable backoff strategies.
- axios-retry:
Offers flexible configuration options for defining retry conditions, such as specific HTTP status codes and retry delays, allowing for tailored retry strategies.
- retry-axios:
Includes advanced configuration options for retries, such as maximum retries, retry delays, and conditions for retrying requests.
- requestretry:
Offers configurable options for retry attempts and delay intervals, making it easy to customize how retries are handled.
- node-fetch-retry:
Allows basic configuration for retry attempts and delays, suitable for simple use cases without complex requirements.
- superagent-retry:
Provides basic configuration for retry attempts and intervals, making it straightforward to implement retries in Superagent.
Error Handling
- got:
Includes built-in error handling that distinguishes between different types of errors, providing more control over which errors should trigger retries.
- axios-retry:
Handles errors gracefully by allowing you to specify which errors should trigger a retry, ensuring that only transient errors are retried.
- retry-axios:
Provides robust error handling capabilities, allowing you to define custom logic for determining when to retry based on error types.
- requestretry:
Retries on specific errors and HTTP status codes, allowing for a straightforward approach to error handling in legacy applications.
- node-fetch-retry:
Retries based on network errors and specific HTTP status codes, making it suitable for handling common transient issues.
- superagent-retry:
Retries on network errors and configurable HTTP status codes, ensuring that transient issues are handled effectively.
Performance
- got:
Designed for high performance, Got is optimized for handling a large number of requests efficiently, making it suitable for applications with high throughput requirements.
- axios-retry:
Performance is closely tied to Axios, which is optimized for speed and efficiency. The retry mechanism is lightweight and does not significantly impact performance unless retries are frequent.
- retry-axios:
Maintains the performance characteristics of Axios while adding retry capabilities, ensuring that performance remains a priority even with retries.
- requestretry:
Performance may be impacted due to the legacy nature of the request library, but it provides a straightforward way to implement retries in existing applications.
- node-fetch-retry:
Lightweight and performant, node-fetch-retry maintains the efficiency of node-fetch while adding retry capabilities without significant overhead.
- superagent-retry:
Performance is similar to Superagent, which is generally efficient, but the retry mechanism may introduce some overhead depending on the configuration.
Community Support
- got:
Has a growing community and is well-documented, providing ample resources for developers looking to implement it in their projects.
- axios-retry:
Backed by the large Axios community, it benefits from extensive documentation and community support, making it easier to find solutions and examples.
- retry-axios:
Benefits from the Axios community, ensuring that developers have access to support and resources for implementing retries effectively.
- requestretry:
While the request library is deprecated, requestretry still has community support, but new projects are encouraged to consider alternatives.
- node-fetch-retry:
Supported by the node-fetch community, it has good documentation and examples, making it accessible for developers.
- superagent-retry:
Supported by the Superagent community, it has sufficient documentation and examples, making it easier for developers to implement.
