Functions

func CalculateDuration

func CalculateDuration(min, max time.Duration, factor float64, jitter bool, failures int) time.Duration

CalculateDuration calculates the backoff duration based on minimum base interval, exponential factor, jitter and number of failures.

func ClusterSizeDependantInterval

func ClusterSizeDependantInterval(baseInterval time.Duration, numNodes int) time.Duration

ClusterSizeDependantInterval returns a time.Duration that is dependent on the cluster size, i.e. the number of nodes that have been discovered. This can be used to control sync intervals of shared or centralized resources to avoid overloading these resources as the cluster grows.

Example sync interval with baseInterval = 1 * time.Minute

Types

type Exponential

type Exponential struct {
	// Min is the minimal backoff time, if unspecified, 1 second will be
	// used
	Min time.Duration

	// Max is the maximum backoff time, if unspecified, no maximum time is
	// applied
	Max time.Duration

	// Factor is the factor the backoff time grows exponentially, if
	// unspecified, a factor of 2.0 will be used
	Factor float64

	// Jitter, when enabled, adds random jitter to the interval
	Jitter bool

	// Name is a free form string describing the operation subject to the
	// backoff, if unspecified, a UUID is generated. This string is used
	// for logging purposes.
	Name string

	// ResetAfter will reset the exponential back-off if no attempt is made for the amount of time specified here.
	// Needs to be larger than the Max duration, otherwise it will be ignored to avoid accidental resets.
	// If unspecified, no reset is performed.
	ResetAfter time.Duration
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Exponential implements an exponential backoff

func (*Exponential) Duration

func (b *Exponential) Duration(attempt int) time.Duration

Duration returns the wait duration for the nth attempt

func (*Exponential) Reset

func (b *Exponential) Reset()

Reset backoff attempt counter

func (*Exponential) Wait

func (b *Exponential) Wait(ctx context.Context) error

Wait waits for the required time using an exponential backoff
