ember-backoff

Simple exponential backoff strategy for Ember.js promises

import retryWithBackoff from 'ember-backoff/retry-with-backoff';

export default Em.Route.extend({
  model: function(params) {
    retryWithBackoff(function() {
      return this.store.find('user', 142857); //return any promise here
    }, 5, 100); //retry 5 times: 100ms, 200ms, 400ms, 800ms, 1600ms between tries
  }
});
