R purrr insistently 將函數轉換為等待，然後在錯誤後重試

insistently(f, rate = rate_backoff(), quiet = TRUE)

httr::RETRY() 是 HTTP 動詞 insistently() 的特例。

其他副詞：auto_browse() , compose() , negate() , partial() , possibly() , quietly() , safely() , slowly()

# For the purpose of this example, we first create a custom rate
# object with a low waiting time between attempts:
rate <- rate_delay(0.1)

# insistently() makes a function repeatedly try to work
risky_runif <- function(lo = 0, hi = 1) {
  y <- runif(1, lo, hi)
  if(y < 0.9) {
    stop(y, " is too small")
  }
  y
}

# Let's now create an exponential backoff rate with a low waiting
# time between attempts:
rate <- rate_backoff(pause_base = 0.1, pause_min = 0.005, max_times = 4)

# Modify your function to run insistently.
insistent_risky_runif <- insistently(risky_runif, rate, quiet = FALSE)
