The idea is to use retryWhen RxJava function to create a new timber observable if it’s a timeout on error
A copy/paste solution can be found in:
It’s just a custom Func1 that receives an Observable to watch for errors with flatMap that should be used with retryWhen operator. For every retry it will wait +1 seconds
Sample
To retry 3 times with 2 initial delay seconds, you must use something like:
myObservable.retryWhen(RetryWithDelayIfTimeout(3, 2))
.subscribe(...)
Extra
If you want to make it cleaner, add io() and MainThread() management (every io call have it) you can use something like:
and then apply it everywhere:
Written in Kotlin but you can make java versions easy.
