If a request timed out, you usually have to call that request again by yourself. AFNetworking+RetryPolicy is an objective-c category that adds the ability to set the retry logic for requests made with AFNetworking.

Features

• retryCount - How many times to try.
• retryInterval - Time interval between attempts in seconds.
• progressive - Next attempt will always take more time than the previous one. (Uses Exponentiation)
• fatalStatusCodes - These will trigger failure block immediately when received and ends current retry.

Getting started

• Installing through CocoaPods with pod 'AFNetworking+RetryPolicy'
• Use #import "AFHTTPSessionManager+RetryPolicy.h" directive.

Want to try it first? Use pod try AFNetworking+RetryPolicy command.

Usage

Example

• Simple GET request with AFNetworking+RetryPolicy could look like this:

    AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [AFHTTPSessionManager new];
    [manager GET:@"foo" parameters:nil progress:nil success:^(NSURLSessionDataTask *task, id responseObject) {
        NSLog(@"%@", responseObject);
        
    } failure:^(NSURLSessionDataTask *task, NSError *error) {
        NSLog(@"%@", error.localizedDescription);
        
    } retryCount:5 retryInterval:2.0 progressive:false fatalStatusCodes:@[@401, @403]];

Log

• Enable to see what is happening by setting the AFHTTPSessionManager’s retryPolicyLogMessagesEnabled property to true. Disabled by default.
