how can i have a job retry on error

It seems likely that implementing a retry mechanism for jobs in LiveKit can be approached by adding retries to the job execution logic. According to the LiveKit documentation, you can handle job retries by monitoring job execution and implementing a retry logic when a job fails. This can be done by catching exceptions and re-dispatching the job. If you need more detailed guidance on implementing this, please let me know, and I can provide a step-by-step breakdown.

@millions-hair-24956 can you give me an example in python

It seems likely that you want a Python example for implementing a retry mechanism for a job in LiveKit. Here's a basic example using asyncio to retry a job upon encountering an error:

import asyncio
from livekit import api

async def run_job_with_retry(job_function, max_retries=3, delay=2):
    retries = 0
    while retries < max_retries:
        try:
            await job_function()
            break  # Exit loop if job succeeds
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"Job failed with error: {e}. Retrying {retries + 1}/{max_retries}...")
            retries += 1
            await asyncio.sleep(delay)
    else:
        print("Max retries reached. Job failed.")

async def example_job():
    # Simulate a job that might fail
    if some_condition_that_causes_failure:
        raise Exception("Simulated job failure")
    print("Job succeeded")

# Usage
asyncio.run(run_job_with_retry(example_job))

In this example,

run_job_with_retry

is a function that attempts to run a job function up to a specified number of retries (

max_retries

). If the job fails, it waits for a specified delay before retrying. If the job succeeds, it exits the loop. If the maximum number of retries is reached, it logs a failure message. If you need more detailed guidance or have specific requirements, please let me know.
