From 090ae3848ca74d1817d7015048ed819ac4ca01a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rodin Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 04:23:27 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fix(gitea): make retry backoff configurable and retry temp net errors Address review feedback: 1. Make backoff delays injectable via Client.RetryBackoff field - Defaults to {1s, 2s} when nil for production - Tests can set shorter values for fast execution - Fixes slow unit tests that previously waited 3+ seconds 2. Add retry on temporary network errors (net.OpError, net.DNSError) - Connection refused, network unreachable, DNS failures now retry - Non-temporary network errors still fail immediately - Context cancellation still respected during backoff Added isTemporaryNetError helper and TestIsTemporaryNetError test. Updated existing retry tests to use configurable short backoffs. --- gitea/client.go | 96 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------- gitea/client_test.go | 94 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- 2 files changed, 164 insertions(+), 26 deletions(-) diff --git a/gitea/client.go b/gitea/client.go index 0d2ec13..75dcf64 100644 --- a/gitea/client.go +++ b/gitea/client.go @@ -11,6 +11,7 @@ import ( "fmt" "io" "log/slog" + "net" "net/http" "net/url" "strings" @@ -51,6 +52,11 @@ type Client struct { baseURL string token string http *http.Client + + // RetryBackoff defines the delays between retry attempts. + // RetryBackoff[i] is the delay before attempt i+1 (after attempt i fails). + // If nil, defaults to {1s, 2s}.
