Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hibiken/asynq/issues/422

Originally assigned to: @hibiken on GitHub.

Is it currently possible to configure a task's retry mechanism from Option API? I see that we can specify MaxRetry, but can we also specify RetryBackoff strategy?

Describe the solution you'd like

asynq.RetryBackoff(asynq.RetryBackoffParams{
	InitialDelay:	time.Second,
	MaxDelay:	time.Minute,
	Type:		asynq.ExponentialBackoff, // Can be asynq.ConstantBackoff as well
})

Describe alternatives you've considered
I'm not sure how I can use RetryDelayFunc for this since it is passed on during initialisation and can't possibly have all the information with it beforehand.

@ajatprabha Thanks for opening an issue!

You could include that metadata in your payload and provide a custom RetryDelayFunc to use that metadata, and fallback to use DefaultRetryDelayFunc if that metadata is not present. Does that work for you?

Ok, I'll try this out and get back if I face any issues with it.
