Description (What does it do?)
The current request to get a moira client will retry up to 3x (the urllib library default) before giving up. This PR adds an additional layer of retries, defaulting to 3 (3x3 = 9) which can be adjusted via a new setting (
MOIRA_RETRIES
).How can this be tested?
Unit tests should pass. You would need current .env settings for
MIT_WS_CERTIFICATE_FILE
andMIT_WS_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE
to be able to connect to moira successfully but without that you should see repeated attempts to connect in the log.
